#2 Perhaps we need a rule: for every nation added to NATO, one nation must be thrown out. Poland, in! France, out! Czech Republic, in! Belgium, out!

#3 c) Greater amount of (mostly US) money to spread around greasing NATO politicians palms.

d) Greater need to keep US military in Europe in order to grease said politicians hands with (mostly US) money.

e) More money means more booze & hookers.

f) More opportunity for France to twist facts and backstab US military operations in order for it to continue doing "business" (consisting mostly of money, booze, and hookers) with US enemies.

g) More opportunity for NATO members to twist facts and hamstring reality by reversing the truth of real-world matters that may, or may not require military operations.

h) More opportunity for Europe to hide behind US military forces when they feel the use of force is needed so that European NATO military forces won't actually have to fight or incur those awfully high expenses involved in military operations (which takes away from the (mostly US) money for booze and hookers).

i) More opportunity for Europe to bleat, moan, and whine about "US hegemony" and "US imperialism" and "US overuse of military force" without first recourse to the UN to give permission for military operations.

C'mon, MacNails, you didn't even try hard.
