Attention McCain/Palin supporters: Kill yourselves now for the good of the universe!

[Cheespuffs45]

correction: Obama HAS won

:D

[freedomfighter790]

YES SIR YOU ARE CORRECT AND NOW OBAMA DOES THE SAME, both parties are war mongering . this democrat republican thing is an illusion. Obama , Harry Reid and many others were dead set against the patriot act when it was Bushs idea, but now It is so very important to them. The hypocracy is unreal!

@viper10011 Because the dictator of Iraq had allegedly breached UN arms treaties. That turned out to be false, but Saddam was still practicing genocide and was openly hostile towards other nations in the region (Kuwait for example). He had to be dealt with sooner or later if the Middle East was going to have any chance of stabilizing in the future. Hence why the Iraqi people were so glad to see him taken out of power.

I dont understand why the united states is even in Iraq the terrorists that attacked them where from afganistan. So why did you guys go into iraq it doesnt make any sense. Could someone elatorate on that for me?

[arbighookasian]

all those wars are self inflicted wounds, do you really think fighting the extrimist will end never and ever, those people just become more motivated against west, think about it would you let anyone invade your land and kill your families on daily bases, i dont think so, even if you didnot have weapon you would do any thing that it took to get ride of your enemy, so thumbs down for the wars and for the one who got the fake prize

So much for promised made by Obama to end the war by 2009 lol, He lied about that promise and now he is planning to leave 30k to 50k troops to police the country much like we have in South Korea. Expect them to be there for a long long time to come.

and 76% of the country still supports it despite what the media wants us to believe. The pole was done by Rasmuttin so if you have a problem with the 76% number you can take it up with them.

[smot2006]

Many of the troops do not support this war.

[BoyKagome]

It's all a matter of choice on their part, they know how to come home if they wanted to; but they choose to stay. The death toll is tragic, but compared to most wars it is a drop in the bucket, but I still pray that god protects the souls of those that died to protect us. But the truths honor is in their mission, so I believe wanting them to fail this mission which the left constantly tries to cause is stomping on it. You may not view it the same way, which is fine but I wont change my position.

The troops are doing a wonderful job at what they are assigned and are all heroes, but should we be making them fight in this stupid war of terror?

You and many others like you think you are right and others are wrong because you are somehow more patriotic than the others. Thats very disrespectful. You can disagree with your government and be patriotic. I love America but I think she is doing the wrong thing, and I am showing my love for her by trying to make her do what is best for everyone.
