Re: Why Voting for Obama is a Mistake
Jason, I honestly didn't know one person could fit that many cliches into so few words. Its almost as if you aren't even human, but a robot sent by MoveOn.org to repeat stale talking points.
Vampyr - We didn't go to war with Iraq until 2 years after 9/11. I think the Americans you talked to confused it with Afghanistan.
As for Bush lying after we realized Saddam either never had the weapons or moved them, I won't argue that and I think that was one of his biggest mistakes. He should have been honest about the situation.
As for pulling out now, well, that woiuld be the biggest mistake we could make. I know you don't believe it, but I think a democratic Iraq has a very good shot. The reason I believe this is because I've talked to several Iraq veterans, and they all were very proud of their service and many looked forward to going back. The reason they gave was because they believed in what they were doing and saw Iraq change and talked to the people there.
Pulling out would show the people we are trying to help that we truly don't care, show the people we're fighting we are weak and vulnerable and the sheer amount of death and geneocide that would follow would be staggering.
When we pulled out of Vietnam, 2.5 million Cambodians and Vietnamese were slaughtered (yes, AFTER we pulled out). We can't repeat the same mistakes.
