Latest Media Bruhaha

I don't like Bush bashers. He's our President. Show some respect. What the hell has happened to our country? We are becoming a nation of impolite, rude, trash mouth hate mongers. It's okay to disagree, but don't make up stuff just to hear your tongue flap. That said, IMHO it's time to get our troops out of harm's way and let the Iraqis finish their civil war. Do they really care about democracy? We will see. So I disagree, but there was no name calling.

Yes, I disagree with the current administration's war. If you can't see that this IS a civil war then God help you. We have issues with greater threats such as Iran and North Korea. Our initial invasion of Iraq was to stop proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. You say that's false? Let's see, they found 24 late model MIGs buried in the desert. I'd bet a dollar that Saddam removed most of the big stuff before we arrived. He had plenty of time. Where are they now? That's the question.

BTW most of the major democrats are on record stating they initially believed in our troops being there. Now many of them are of a different opinion. Another form of Bush bashing? Not necessarily. Like me they may want our brave servicepeople to quit dying.

Brings our troops home. Welcome them and tell them job well done. It's for sure that didn't happen when we returned from Vietnam. What prompted this slanted political observation? A conversation with a client who whispered she's a democrat and was very polite in stating facts plus an article posted at Reuters.

Agree? Don't? Use the comments.
