In this time of presidential nominations, we hear cries of “we’re at war” from the republican candidates and “the democrats want to cut and run”.
Duh! We are not AT war, we are IN war, a civil war between the Sunni and Shiite Iraqis, caused when Team Bush invaded the stable (stabilized by the one time bad guy, Sadam), sovereign nation of Iraq. In the meantime, Osama reigns free, as an aging icon in Afghanistan, in the REAL "war" we got distracted from in going after Sadam again, to finish "dad's work".
McCain talks about a long US presence in Iraq; reminiscent of Colin Powell’s remark before he resigned, “You break it, you own it.”
These have been a sorry 7 years for our nation, now deeper in debt (China owns us now) at historically high levels. Ironically, the $600 stimulus package some tax payers may get will very likely stimulate CHINA’S economy, as most of it will likely be spent at Walmart, where it is hard to find anything made in America.
Take the challenge! Find something made in America for sale in Walmart!
