Iraq war is over. Afghanistan winding up sooner than scheduled. I am not seeing us invading more countries and getting our soldiers killed or is that your right wing fantasy?

Don't be so guliable.

Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Joe Biden, etc.... All made statements about Iraq having WMDs before the war, Iraq helping AlQueda before the war, Saddam being a threat to the US before the war, Saddam killing countless people...violating the 1991 peace treaty etc...

Yes, Biden and the majority of Senate Democrats voted for war then pretend like they didn't.

Excuse me? Bush has left the office and many wars have been created and fought since his time of leaving office. The Republicans are saying this is right and this is good? Since when?

Laden's dead. Who changed the mission?

Militant islamics are always going to exist. There is not any one leader in any nation who is going to be able to irradicate them. Even if one faction, like Al Queda were to be vanquished, another one will instantly spring into place. I think that the conflict between the west and militant islamics in Africa and the far east will unfortunately continue to be one of the defining issues of this century.

To say all terrorist nuts are Al Qaeda is like saying all Repubs are TParty nuts. Yes Al Qaeda is on the ropes just like the TParty.

Terrorism is an idea. That's why the "war on terror" is nonsense. You can kill a terrorist or arrest him like any other criminal, but you will never kill the idea.

He changed positions so many times it made my head spin. I wouldn't call anyone morons for voting the way they did. I will say that Romney tried to fool a lot of people but they weren't buying it.
Romney lost because he said "jobs.. jobs.. jobs" and Obama won because he said "free stuff... free stuff... free stuff".

This countries losers voted for Obama.
