Well unless you want to pay for the war....we will dealing with our own consequences. Nobody said for you to stay out...I said I HOPE we have a more diplomatic president soon. I have one vote and it will be for a much more diplomatic person. We just cleaned up the Senate and the House, asking for change...don't you watch the news?
I still think there's a shocking number of people in this country, and especially on this forum, who believe all the lies about this war and our administration. Don't be so defensive. It's OK to kick when a sound kicking is deserved. And to ask someone else to fund the war just because they're critical is plain foolish. We started this silly war and we have to pay for our folly with our money and our lives. The French were too smart to be sucked into it.
I never wanted to stand for this war but I will stand for our Country and it's prinicples and the American people. America made a mistake and we are paying for that mistake...or is America perfect and not allowed to make mistakes?
If I try to become the next chancellor in Germany, running against Mrs. Merkel and I promise tax free gasoline, lower taxes for work, 1/2 VAT, no unemployement.... free health insurance, what do you think how many votes I will get, even if voters know I will send soldiers to Afghanistan....
One would hope people are smart enough to realize it's a scam. Nobody can do those things. Not short-term anyway. There are already German troops in Afghanistan much to the dislike of many Germans.
That's all we are saying. It was a mistake. We only criticize people who don't want to admit that America isn't perfect because that's arrogant and ignorant.
They are criticizing Americans and saying we are arrogant and ignorant, not all of us wanted this war and even the people who were manipulted have woke up.
