The GOP is boasting that their candidate(s) won't stand for the US losing a war and that the Dems have a "defeatist" attitude towards Iraq. To that I say, and? Who's keeping score of war wins and losses anyways? Is there some kind of prize later that I'm not aware of? Do presidents get bonuses for declaring "mission accomplished"? This is not a football game! What's going on here? Am I going crazy? Do they not even have to talk about
why we're still at war despite being less safe now than we were when we started this insanity? Is there no accountability in this country? No, let's just ignore injustice, chant "U-S-A", and all will be well. We've become a nation of war mongering Frat boys.
Do you know how much alternative energy and healthcare you can buy for 2 trillion dollars? Well, I can't tell you because we burned all that money in Iraq.
I might be oversimplifying things, but I see is 80K in US debt per household, 10s of thousands of bodies in Iraq and no end in sight. This has to stop, it's madness.

The US is like a bully... Remember the one that wouldn't stop even when no one was laughing and it was all awkward? Well, that's what we have become, the bully that won't stop until he's won.
I agree with you!
