Would You Believe???

@Denuseri I will take your word for your disdain of both parties. Your post does not hint at that at all.

The US has been a limited Socialist state for over 70 years now. Medicare, social security, more recently medicaid and job assistance.

My sarcasm was triggered by the undermine the morale statement. It irks me to no end to see someone talk about supporting the troops and not the war as being a real detriment to them. Isn't that they are supposedly over there fighting for? The right of every American to be able to be against something, justified or not and be able to express that.

I support our troops and thank them for their service and except those serving in Afghanistan who have been left hung out to dry by an inept administration trying to fight a real enemy, I support them coming home and getting out of harms way. Now relistically they can not get just get up and leave. That is almost as irresponsible as sending them there in the first place.

I agree, if we had placed all our tropps and resources into Afghanistan, I believe that Bin Laden would have long since been captured or killed, but thisi s just my feeling we have spend WAY to much Mnoey and too many lives in Iraq, who after 7 years seen unable or unwilling to take cotrol thmeselves, but then again if youwere intheir place and knew a country helpnig you would be there "til the end" what motivation does Iraq have to move itself forward

If they can't take control of thier own contry in 7 years or make efforts to, then when??
