And who made the US soldier the cop of the world. If our gov't kept it's promises to us guys then I might feel a little better but since the GI is the 1st get phuked when the shooting stops, I don't.
>>Had Vietnam fallen quickly to the communists, were they done expanding?<<
With the Communists we have in our own Congress and Senate? Hell no, they aren't done expanding.
I don't give a rats ass what the rest of the world does. If they want freedom then let the people rise up and fight for it the way we did!
When we finally leave IRAQ they are going to remember the incident where their young children, women and infants were killed, not the times when our GI's died for them. They'll have a lot of disabled civilians to remind them everyday about the war and their last concern will be our disabled GI's here at home.
I love to stop off at the VA hospital to bring some gifts during the holidays, but I feel like dogsh!t because I can't do more for them. Never once have I seen a politician there who didn't have a gdam cameraman with him!
We could live a great life without all the electronics and clothes that we buy stamped Made in China when our politicians made damn sure our American companies would go bankrupt with the trade policies they enact.
Don't preach to me about money and the benefits of war unless you've been there and done that. Look at our economy today and tell me that the war in Iraq is beneficial. Borrowing 1 Billion bucks a day isn't the smartest fiscal move that a President can do.
Don't give me any crap about how we are fighting terrorism either. Not with the borders open we aren't.
Look at this and tell me America is as safe.
Sorry for taking it all out on you but that's life.
