Your joy at voting D no matter what they actually do in office with regards to wars is duly noted.

I'm guessing you are one of the people that peeled that anti-war bumper sticker off your car around 2009 and have been making excuses ever since.

Wake up, Bush and Cheney are still running US foreign policy.

"Tax cuts" do not cause deficits. Record revenue came in to the treasury after the Bush tax cuts.

Spending is the problem, as you indicated.
+1

Liberals always just parrot was some left wing regressive talking head about how the Bush/Obama tax cuts cost us money, however they fail to see that revenues increased but spending increased in huge amounts. They also fail to forget that Government Spending is part of the GDP equation.

Bottom line: we have a major spending problem in this country as much as the left wing fools want to deny it.

Agreed. Bring the troops home whomever's idea it is. And don't start a war with the American people.

If he won they would complain,

If loses, they will complain,

If he stayed, they would complain,

When he leaves, they will complain,

If Afghan didn't exist, they would complain.

If you'll recall, Obama himself called Afghanistan a just war and supported intervening there. Sorry to burst your revisionist history bubble but Afghanistan wasn't a "conservative" war.

We are taking casualties in Afghanistan, today.
The whining is over. Time to kick ass and take names, or get the hell out.

We started it, what is the plan to finish it?
