Dear Mr Obama

[bobblehead]

I do not know how you can watch this video, and then actively promote what Obama is spewing. I do not understand it. We have a standard of living that is the envy of the world, free or not. How can you say to an Iraqi that this was a mistake? How can you say that since we didn't find weapons of mass destruction we shouldn't be there. How can you say that we should pull out and let them figure it all out? How can you say that? Those creating chaos in Iraq are NOT Iraqi's. Not the vast majority anyhow.

My views on this are very documented, and I am sort of playing devils advocate, but I am trying to make a valid point....how can we be against the war in iraq....how about a 400+ billion dollar deficit. Or the infrastructure we could have built here with the TRILLION+ that we spent there.

Oops

OK, I finally watched the right one.

Sheepshead, that was totally EXCELLENT. And your comments about the liberal mindset versus us good normal America-loving Americans were also right on target.

You'll have to excuse me and John McCain for our lack of computer literacy. I can, at least, do email and forums--not much else. McCain, however, I'm sure has people for that sort of task.

At least you know McCain isn't blowing a bunch of time on internet porn.

It's a totally valid concern. The question of whether a secure, pluralist, pro-western democratic Iraq is, in the long term, both attainable and worth the blood and treasure the U.S. spent, is the greatest issue of our time.

What was the economic cost of 9/11--to say nothing of the human cost? A lot higher than the war figures, I would think. A repeat of 9/11, multiple repeats, a potentially biochemical or nuclear repeat, what would that cost?

The leftists can't stand the thought of the obvious linkage here because it blatantly displays their ignorance, if not worse. But that linkage is true.

Asserting American power, influence, and values--even in Iraq, which admittedly had very limited connection to al Qaeda--is clearly THE NUMBER ONE FACTOR in preventing repeats of 9/11.

The left wants to divert from this issue and say the economy is more important; Well, terrorism at home IS an economic issue--the TOP economic issue.
