People are dying when there were other options. Its true they're in the military, but they're people too, and I dont think there is any reason for them to die unless its a last resort. I dont think Bush saw it as a last resort, and it pisses me off, and I think a real leader would smooth out the worldwide anger about the whole situation by admitting his mistakes and working to repair them.
All that other shit doesn't matter (at least not as much). We can "armchair quaterback" all day long, but until the "leader of the free world" starts looking at the reality of the situation, which is that he rushed us into a ginormous clusterfuck, people will keep dying. My opinion is that the first step is to say, "Hey, invading Iraq, when we did, was a mistake. Now I'd like to help these people, so what do I have to do to make up for this mistake?"
I would just ask that those of you with the "Freedom Isn't Free" and "Hey, they volunteered for the military" mentality think for a second about these people on a more personal level. They aren't the corpses in camo you see on the news. They were somebody's child, somebody's father, somebody's best friend. |
good thing this is your last post cause i think I'm gonna puke....
what would the other choices have been? Not invade and do more of the same like we had for the past 12 years waiting for something to happen, hoping nothing does...ignore intelligence that you depend on...ignore the cries to do something from 90% of congress....ingnor ethe cries from the people that elected yout are you nuts....who in their right mind would do that...
more bullshit monday morning QB partisan games....f u c k i n LAME!!!
again you offer no other plans other then...."waaaa I dont like whats' going on now...WWAAAAAAAAAAA"
so basically business as usual...
