my opinion
for what it is worth,
there are no good choices for president this year, no matter how you look at it, we are going to lose.
this is the election that will go down as having to choose who you think will do the least amount of damage while in office. or you could vote to let clinton in so she can get the rest of the silver ware she left, and maybe some new furnishings for her home lol.
Iraq, that could be viewed so many diff ways!
I think that the first mistake made was attacking our country, cities, people, and all the collateral damage that came from that. sorry to all the folks that feel they are discriminated against because of thier race, or religion, but it is your "kind" that made so many good americans turn racist because of the hijackings and the subsequent attempts to infiltrate our country.
Was going in to iraq a mistake, absolutely not! Was afghanistan a mistake, absoultely not!
Was this campain managed properly, i say no, should have gone in, and completely crippled thier economy, put them on thier knees, and treated the country as a "conquered state" and taken total controll untill the "bad seeds" were taken care of.
On the other side, when considering what has been accomplished there;
I would invite anyone to look at the vietnam war, and compare casualties for one day of that conflict to the "total loss of life in iraq"
this war has been considerably different!
If the clintons had taken out osama bin laden when they had the chance, this war possibly would never have happened, but that is supposition on my part.
Vote for the best of the worst, and hope that we dont take it in the rear when it is all said and done.
