I was reading about the speech ...Lorelei - I agree. I was reading about the speech today, and it seems that half of the people who support the war point to the fact that a weak Pakistan has nukes that Afghanistan can get their hands on, while the other half point to the humanitarian issues of oppressed women and children. We don't seem to care about the other countries that abuse their women and children, and we aren't rushing in to divest other shaky countries of nukes, so what is the true deal?<br /><br />Janie - I think you are right. Someone was talking about Russia's experience in Afghanistan. Do we truly believe we will sweep in, stabilize the country and turn it over? Based on ...?<br /><br />Greetings Sandra - You can go on msnbc's site and access videos of KO. We always think we will be in and out, and how often does THAT happen. Arrogance drives war, of course, but we always seem to think we come from a place of nobility. (Sigh)<br /><br />Mountain Mama - Yes indeed. There is plenty of crap, but EVENTUALLY I have to wonder why we keep piling it on!CoyoteFehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08565436605473733851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6414044777643138336.post-44285763370655908822009-12-01T23:49:34.304-05:002009-12-01T23:49:34.304-05:00I know Obama inherited a boatload of crap but I ho...I know Obama inherited a boatload of crap but I hoped that he would not continue fighting in this way.

That being said, I listened to this whole clip while the blog's music played over it. It was a great distraction.<br /><br />Obama just bought himself a war. I was born in the early 1950's and have watched one war after another my whole life. <br /><br />Going back to Alexander, no one has been successful there. But I guess we are different.
