I just finished reading a book on my daughter's list of required reading. The Kite Runner. I've been confused with our relationships with the Middle East. I had to print up a list of the characters of the book and a historical synopsis of the unrest since the 70's. So now that I have the Sunni and the Shiites sorted out. The Al-Qaeda and the Taliban, Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden, I ask myself this:
Umm, so we've been fighting the wrong country for all these years. We should have been in Afghanistan in the first place assuming that you really feel that bombing the hell out of a country is the way to go. It's been MY experience that Republicans LOVE war. In fact Bush and Cheney used false intelligence to take us into Iraq costing us trillions of dollars and lives that we can't begin to put a value on. So exactly what is it that President Obama is doing that the Republicans dislike? We're fighting in the right country now. I gotta say that Bush and Cheney should be imprisoned in my opinion but I'd settle for the Republican Party saying "Oops! Yeah we'll shut up now and listen to the intelligent people now. (Not to be confused with false intelligence.)"
So having any intelligence from the Republican party (forget the tea party, that's not worth mentioning) is a pipe dream. I'm not sure intelligence exists at all in our politicians. I also blogged on voter remorse (Jon Stewart on O'Reilly, remember?). Here's the thing... I voted for Hope and Change. I'm a brave little American and obviously I really could care less what people think of me for it as evidenced by the fact that I'm still a lone voice for President Obama in a sea of freaking conservative idiots in a small town, small minded, state. Now if we had some brave little Americans in places of power... We don't. WE HAVE STUPID PEOPLE!!!!!

I Give Up - 9/11 Responders Bill | ||||

Really? We've forgotten the heroes of 9/11? And don't mistake my disdain for the pointless war for ingratitude for our troops. I believe they deserve the best we can give them. You know it's the benefits all the stupid politicians get.
