I am a dem but I don’t want our soldiers to die just to have my party win an election, that is an ignorant comment. I was against the invasion of a country unprovoked and wanted the US to focus on the terrorists in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran and everywhere else we could hunt them down and kill them. Now that we are committed I do not favor an immediate exodus from Iraq. I am pleased that conditions are much improved for our troops. Getting the troops out has to be handled responsibly depending on conditions on the ground at the time. I believe the war was mishandled early on and the “no bid” contracts gained by Haliburton should cause Dem or Rep to give pause.
Also, What happened to our number one enemy Osama bin Laden? Now “W” says it’s not that important to find and kill him, that’s BS.
As for Dems having complex thought patterns, are you referring to the complex thoughts of a president who cannot put a cogent sentence together? Give me a f—-ing break. If my teenage son came home with the same grades “W” earned in school I’d pull him out of sports, whip his ass and ground him for a semester. The “W” record is in the books, record breaking bankruptcy filings, record breaking foreclosures, energy prices out of sight, failure on hurricane Katrina, screwed up the war until relieving Rumsfeld under pressure and changing strategy, no improvement on the health care crisis, no improvement on the illegal alien problem, and finally the horrible treatment of our brave military personnel when they return home with physical and psychological disabilities. Taking a position of being “for the troops” goes way beyond supporting the war. Giving them the best care, re-training for employment, psychological treatment and any other assistance they need should be our countries priority without regard to party or politics.
