I love it when the same people who were demanding that we NUKE Afghanistan and Iraq after 911 are criticizing our foreign policy now.

Yup our Presidents have innocent people murdered every month.

War is Hell. But I never saw any threads like this when Bush was president.

Obama could have ended the Wars in his first term. Why did he continue to go on murdering innocents? to get reelected of course.

To get re-elected?!?! I think he would have garnered even more votes if he HAD ended the war in Afghanistan. Your assertion makes no sense.

He could have pushed for the assault weapons ban in 2009. Why didn't he? So he could get reelected.

Hmmm...maybe there were more critical and immediate issues on his plate. After all, he inherited a horrible mess of a country.


Innocent American Children died so he could get reelected. It's like he pulled the trigger himself isnt it?
See above.

Killing kids in drone attacks is wrong. There should be no whitewash of it because you're a democrat and Obama is a democrat. Or because you're a republican and Bush is a republican.

But the point is lost on you, the government is evil. It commits evil acts such as bombing and killing little kids then saying it's nothing but collateral damage. And you want more regulation (i.e give government more power).
I didn't say anything about my views, so don't pretend to know how I feel about these policies. I've been against the majority of US military actions since the invasion of Iraq.

Maybe someone needs to polish of their reading glasses.

There's hypocrisy on the left just as there is on the right, but I'm calling BS on a lot of these reactionary posts pretending to suddenly care about the victims of our foreign policy.

I'm not going to look at your profile picture because I don't know you, I don't pretend to know you, and I don't give a fark about whoever you are...

It doesn't matter why they do it. We don't knowingly waste children just because it's convenient. In fact, we shouldn't be in the business of targeted assassinations of people resisting foreign occupation. We shouldn't be there in the first place.

But you were for the Afghanistan invasion? The bombing of the balkans in the 90s? The Iraqi sanctions? And Gulf War 1?

Who here in this thread has held those positions? Please point them out and shame them.

Would you like me to recite my personal feelings about every US military action going back to the Mexican-American war?

Why don't you share your own views, so I can not bother to read them.. .

I agree, the last two presidents and members of congress should be tried as war criminals.

It's not right that reporters not asking a scripted question during president new conference.

I am usually very hawkish on defending this country but now that this President is bound and determined to use the CT tragedy to push his own agenda I think it's only right he list all those foreign and domestic innocents he is responsible for ordering murdered.

Yes list all those murdered by Bush and Darth Cheney as well.
You're the one showing hypocrisy. Trying to push your pro gun agenda, pretending to be caring for kids killed by our drones.


I'm for increased gun control and against the use of drones, and I didn't vote for Obama.
