Could Obama's Afghanistan decision be the reason for THIS email from a RWer?
Edited on Thu Nov-26-09 09:39 PM by Bozita
This was a real shocker, coming from him.


A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

Nations have recently been led to borrow billions for war; no nation has ever borrowed largely for education. Probably, no nation is rich enough to pay for both war and civilization. We must make our choice; we cannot have both.

-Abraham Flexner, educator (1866-1959)

My friends note: Yes, and what if the Defense Department had to hold bake sales for funding?

2. Is that email indicative of another split in the GOPers: pro-war v. Obama's for it? I'm against it!
The sender is a dedicated RWer. I don't think he's a loner.

3. Meh, the wingnuts should've been rethinking the war back when they had the responsibility
Now that they're out of power they can moan the futility of war all they want. Meanwhile the grown ups in the White House are still trying to clean up George Bush's mess.
