Zero WMDs, Bin Laden not brought to justice, Drug trade bigger than ever, Taliban still viable
Did you know that there is only one elected leader (President Hamid Karzai) in the whole country? And that two-thirds of the country does not recognize him as their president? After 7 years of US war/occupation & support... Now in 8/2008 we are losing the "war" & killing civilians more than ever.
The drug trade has never been higher, the Taliban is back in control, & billions of taxpayers' hard earned money has been lost. Now a new "surge" is needed after 7 years?
Yet, Osama Bin Laden was not caught despite hundreds of billions of your money spent by our Republican administration?
Who by the way (Republican administration) has been caught in hundreds of lies, led us to war under false pretenses, major legal scandals, & who has repeatedly let our country down. Over 50 Republican leaders have had to lose their jobs from such, a new historical record.
Now with McCain, has the GOP really changed their policies & tactics, after so many years, even decades? Ask yourself that? The evidence would say no.
Its not about the candidates, its about their parties' policies.
And how has the GOP's policies worked out? Have their policies been honest, transparent, & most importantly successful?
Please ask yourself these questions as our economy fails, endless wars prevail, & more of the same is on the table. Do you want war on Russia & how about Iran too? Both can & will defend themselves.
Maybe World War III?
You think the economy & things are bad now?
