TV AD: Sen. Collins, should we start training our kids now?

i am truly puzzled by your comment. "we would lose everything we've fought for over the last five years...." Exactly what was it we fought for????? And what have we won???? What do we hope to win???? If you are going to insist that it is worthwhile to continue spending $5K every second (yes, that's how much we're spending now) and ask more people to die...you should be able to answer those basic questions.

we can't leave because all hell would break loose. but now that the surge has supposedly worked and the iraqis have asked us to leave, we can't leave because? why? run that by me again? we have to stay forever because why? could it OIL????? control of OIL?????? and the Iraqis might NOT give the major contracts to our oil companies???????????????

You should be able, without the assistance of FoxNews, to tell us exactly who the Islamofacists are, why they are going to show up in our streets, and what they want from us. In an adult, rational fashion, speaking from one adult to another without sloganeering, but rather real geopolitical reasoning. Rational geopolitical thinking, and define an actual strategy. Calling Democrats, Dumbocrooks, makes it clear, you probably can't do this...or locate Iraq on a map.
