Well, that was a nice attempt to be cute, but it ignores realty. People being bombed probably don't have a vote. And if they do, they should vote for Democrats who are by far the less warmongering party.
As with domestic issues, the implication is not that the Dems are perfect. Far from it. But they are generally reasonable, especially when contrasted with the fascists who most certainly are not.
Saying things like "you are living a peaceful life far away from US bombs." in an attempt to invalidate my statement doesn't help your case, nor does it change the reality that blue is better - or at least, less bad.
Voting for the people bombing you is just as stupid as it sound. If you want to do the correct thing and not just what benefit you, you should either vote for a third party that is actually good or not vote at all.
Your opinion that one of the two parties is "generally reasonable" is rooted in the fact that you are not being targeted by them. If you were living in gaza and israel were murdering your family with US government support you wouldn't believe them to be any reasonable for a second.
