Bush launched three war s- that is a fact:
To this day, I don't know about Afghanistan, it is really blurry to me - the right and wrong of it.
Iraq - the dumbest move in the HISTORY of the country, no doubt about it.

And I understand -Old "Osama"/his people - this had to be dealt with.

I don't want our counry EVER to be in the position Old W left us in - not in my kids life-time.

I WANT the facts dealt with, I want the fantasy dismissed - it is a PROBLEM.

Sometime this summer all hell will break lose, I am sick to my stomache at the prospect.

It is going to happen, anyway.


Mr Bush should have gone to Viet Nam, really - he'd know the stakes he just place on OUR kids here.

Joe

1. Funny you should mention this.
Just this afternoon I was thinking about what might be different today if Bush had been in combat during the Vietnam War. The old combat soldiers I know from that war aren`t running around with their chests puffed out screaming for blood.

2. Indeed true,
It is the problem to me -

How dare this coward not listen to those vets - how dare he,

Our parents and grandparents saying in unision - Stop this sutupid thing -

And this guys what, deaf or something??

This is not happening in my country, not after what they did for us - NO WAY.

3. Reminds me: pic of Coors 20-something kid sitting in luxury while
less fortunate sons must face the dangers in Iraq. Coors is a very conservative pro-GOP family that argues the only thing govenment should do is have a military. I guess that means a military of OTHER people's kids.

(The picture was in the newspaper of the Coors kid sitting in an Infinity swimming pool showing off his body with a million dollar view of Denver behind him. Honestly, he should be the one fighting for the country that has given him so much and demanded so much from the poor.)

4. I guess some of us are too old - cause it didn't used to be
that way.

Coors was never a very good beer, I suppose.
