Actually most on the left seem to support Afghanistan....

As to MY beliefs,we should destroy our enemy wherever they are and leave.

If/when they reappear,repeat process.

Eventually they will either learn,or we will kill them all.

Either is fine with me.

I am sure you have posted it but what is your position on the war with Libya?

Yeah, Saddam was really threatening the USA . I'm against most wars.
Its ironic that you call others hypocrits, yet you don't seem to grasp your own hypocrisy.

We had fought a war with Iraq not that long before the second war...and we were actually only in a ceasefire,there was no peace.

Your hypocrisy is to defend the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan when Bush was in office. Iraq was not a threat to the US in 2003.
Now Obama is in office, all of a sudden you are against the actions against Libya. You are as hypocritical as the people that you criticize on the left. There is absolutely no difference.
When it comes to US foreign policies, I agree with Ron Paul. But I am a leftie because I disagree with you . You are against the war in Libya because Obama is the President and you are too much of a coward to admit it.

Afghanistan I was fine with bombing into oblivion,and beyond.
Iraq was a mess from the getgo,although once we were in the crap we had to try and get it over with.I still do not believe we should rebuild our former enemy however.

Libya was even less of a threat.

I am sure YOU agree that is hypocritical right?

For the (hopefully) last time LIBYA IS NOT A WAR! There are no soliders there all that this is preventive air strikes! Iraq was planned way before Bush II took office and was used by certain corperations to make Billions off of the American poeples fears

I can still respect some of the refuticans that stayed consistant with their chickenhawkish ways but not the fools that float along party lines. It seems that they can care less about the peoples and more about the party. This holds true with the dumbocrats as well.

WTF is our exit strategy if all this goes south when Mighty Mo is overthrown???

Are these not legitimate questions?

ITS LIKE OBAMA LEARNED NOTHING ABOUT THE LAST DECADE.
Hahaha, the country is doomed, we will have R's and D's sending this countries military on crazy mission until this country is beyond broke, even moreso than now. I laugh at people who still TRULY believe THEIR PARTY is going to turn this mess around.

As I mentioned before Vietnam was not a war either, so YOU tell me what is considered to be a war?

I guess spending the majority of my life in the military must mean that I don't know what a real war is
