1- Afghanistan - enthusiastic yes at first, but it’s being managed by clowns that could muck up a one-car parade. Iraq- most emphatically NO, NO, a THOUSAND times NO. I will always believe that Iraq was the reason Bush ran in the first place. 2- Male 3- 49, for a couple more months anyway. Then AARP gets me. ---

[QUOTE=jjimm] Stop voting them in then! [/QUOTE] But, if we let the _other_ guys in then they’ll force our children to become homosexuals and there will be blowjobs in the White House and abortions in the streets. What will happen to our families? Doesn’t that matter to you? Oh, wait, you’re not an American, are you? How _dare_ you suggest we should listen to what other countries have to say! You Brits\* are almost as bad as the French. Besides, the price of gas is down almost 30 cents in the past couple of weeks\*\* and I have to go watch Survivor/American Idol/NASCAR/Football. And anyway all of those Arabs and Muslims are evil people who just hate us because we love the bible here. \*If memory serves you might be Irish, but a decent percent of people here don’t know the difference anyway. \*\*Down 30 cents but up about $1.70 since the current administration came in. God bless monster trucks, Hummers and SUVs! I _need_ my behemoth. ---

I think the Iraw War was a horrible idea, but since we broke their country we have a moral responsibility to leave it better than we found it, not pull out now that it’s politically expedient leaving the Iraqi people to fend for themselves in what is sure to be an exceptionally bloody civil war. I certainly don’t call that support of the war, and yet, I think we need to be sending more troops, not fewer. Male, 33. –Cliffy ---
