I am soooooo tired of this old Bush/Republican outcry that "You're either with us or Un-American!" Like Red said, we ALL support or troops, just not the idiots that sent them there. This is the biggest blunder in the history of our country. No I take that back, the biggest blunder was putting George Bush into office. There are so many deceptive underpinnings in this, oil fields, contracts to cronies for restoration, daddy paybacks -- It's a house of cards and the Joker is Bush. Let me say this clearly, I SUPPORT OUR TROOPS BUT I WANT THEM HOME. They should never have been there in the first place. I agree very much with Tal that we do not understand the mindset of the Middle Eastern culture. Why? Because we think it's our way or the highway. That's just wrong. I am a proud American, but of late I feel like we're the bratty teenager on the block that thinks we know it all. WE DON'T. I believe in mutual respect and diplomacy in dealing with other countries and cultures that are much much older than ours. We have never walked in their shoes, yet we insist we buy them new ones. Maybe they don't want new ones! I just feel so bad that the next President is left with this mess to clean up and no matter who it is, will be criticized every step of the way. Bottom line for me, as I stated before, Afghanistan is a just war. As for the rest, with the domino effect that will occur if we keep going this way, I smell a draft. WAKE UP AMERICANS. Whether you like Obama or not -- it IS time for a change.
