A response I published in response to a story at this link
Blaming Obama for this mess in Iraq and Syria is way off
base. It makes one wonder if there is any sanity left in the Right Wing
(Republicans) or have they completely gone insane. Comments blaming someone who
had nothing to do with the formation of ISIS is just a cheap shot.
America was ready to leave that area of the world a long
time ago and far too many lives were lost in a useless cause. The insistence by
Republicans to keep wasting American military lives, borders on criminal
behavior.
ISIS would not exist if it were not for the wrong-headed
decisions by Neocons in the first place. People like Bryan Mullins were wrong
from day one and has no validity in future conversations. From day one, the
Democrats were right about the war on terror and after our failure in that area
of the world the American people have finally figured it out as well.
The American people don't want to bury more US soldiers for
a lost cause. We don't want to spend our wealth trying to transform those
barbarians while our infrastructure falls down around our ears. Everything
American blood thirsty Fundamentalist Christians said about that area was
incorrect. Continuing the same mistakes is not a solution.
Elections certainly do matter. The problem goes back to the
day America allowed cheap shot killers to take over our government with their
lies and cheating and the real elected President (Al Gore) was overthrown in a
coup. Our nation has paid the price ever since. This situation would not exist
today if Al Gore had been President. He was smarter and a better man than that
fake Christian George W. Bush.
Today we have a more thoughtful and intelligent person in
the White House. Obama is head and shoulder above war mongering, wrongheaded
Neo-Cons who think running around the world killing everyone is the right thing
to do. Several trillion dollars and more than 5,000 lives chasing bad decisions
made by Republicans has ended. Right wing braggarts who have been wrong from
day one need to shut up.
