Obama Supporters Only Thread

One more thing that bothers me.......
Most of you (the ones with brains) would not let your children go to a home daycare where the man watching you kids was friends with people like obamas pastor, who spews racist hate speech against people, blaming the aids virus, sep.11th on White people in this country. Or a man who also had friends that attempte to blow up buildings here in our own country, attempting to kill innocent americans, and then says publicly that he wishes he would have killed more. Or let a man who publicly says to a group of out of control liberals( in san. fran. ) that religous, hard working, middle class people that make up a huge percent of America (the ones working, not hugging trees) are bitter and cling to their weapons.
Personally i wouldnt let someone like that watch my kid and take care of it.........SO WHY LET HIM TAKE CARE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT OFFICE IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!

I'll ask again of the Obama supporters. Is he socialist based on this platform on healthcare, taxes and imposed "fairness", and large federal gov't?
Is socialism compatable with our Constitution?
Please answer honestly.

Boy, I'm glad George Washington didn't give up trying to turn farmers, laborers and other men into soldiers. The Continental Army was a bit rough around the edges too, but somehow with dedication, and hard work they defeated one of the world's greatest powers.
But then again, according to liberals, they were just a bunch of evil white europeans. "Typical" in today's language.

I think you'll find the majority of posters on this thread aren't terribly excited about McCain, we're just terrified of either of the Democrats gutting the Constitution and moving us into a Socialistic society.
On top of that, many of us firmly believe being in Iraq is allowing us to fight the terrorists in the Middle East, versus the middle of the USA.
Lastly, I'm not sure where you and your husband are based, but I highly suspect you are exagerating when you say your police force deal with IEDs and mortars. I'm not aware of any US base or embassy in the world where one of our bases is routinely coming under fire.

ok. you can believe all you want about whatever you want but the truth is that no one knows whats going on over there. the point of certain missions because i can tell you some of them have nothing to do with terrorism. some do, and some just seem pointless but all in all, when will it be over? think about what would happen if a terrorist decided to attack tonight. the military wouldnt be able to fight like they would need/want to. theres not enough man-power here to do what would need to be done.

1journeyman may be too modest to tell you, but I'm not. He is leaving soon for the very place you are talking about. I'm pretty sure he knows what's going on over there.

Armywife, many of us have friends and family over "there". Unless you are seeing classified Intel we have access to the same info that you have.
I have no idea when the War on Terrorism will be over. Nor do I have any idea when the War in Iraq will be over. What I do know is that al Qaeda is dying on a daily basis in Iraq. I also know that Al Qaeda has stated they are having an issue with recruitment. I further know that Al Qaeda killed 3000+ Americans in less than 2 hours on 9-11. While the invasion of Iraq may not have been the same as the War on Terror when we went into Iraq, the two fronts are certaintly fused together today.
Not every mission in Iraq is designed to route out terrorists. Then again, not every mission in the Pacific in 1943 was designed to kill Japanese soldiers.
The purpose of our military is to prevent attacks on US soil, not respond to emergencies when we are attacked. Our military were all here safe and sound the morning of 9-11. That didn't help a bit.

No MOS. I'm going over as a Contractor with one of our Government Departments. Will be in the Green Zone In Baghdad. (Provided I pass the qualifications this coming week)
My job will not be nearly as dangerous as what our men/women in the military do.

My point is, many of us have friends/family over there, so we hear from them what is going on, just as you hear from your husband.

I've got 3 cousins, (and we are mexicans so we are actually close to our cousins) Who have served 2 tours over there. One 3 if you count Afganistan. They knew what they were getting into when they signed up. They are all lifers. And love it. They hate war. It is a dirty nasty thing. And they don't mince words about their feelings, but at the same time, they believe in their country, and what they are doing. But you gotta do what you gotta do. Whether you agree with the war or not, we are pot committed, we leave now, those 4000 brave heroes lives will really be wasted.
Besides it isn't as if the libs are going to pull out of Iraq when they take office. They've all said the hardline left stuff, they quietly put in the fine print. Maybe. They won't have a retreat that is cast in a light of defeat on their watch.

my husband is too. he was a firefighter/emt and decided to join the military for a full out career. i think everyone on post ive talked to as well as anyone they have talked to have all said what your cousins say. they believe in our country but hate the war. will do what they have to but it doesnt mean they like it. and i hate that we are losing lives, it makes me really sad.
not to mention i know a soldier who served with general patraeus and he let me know what he and the others that served thought about the war. he called the continuation of that many soldiers babysitting when we could cut down troops and slowly let the iraqis take over their own country.

Armywife, please don't take any of our support for the "war" as apathy for the loss of a single US life overseas.
We care. We may just have differing views as to what is the best way to win the War we are in.

the only way to ever win a war realistically is if someone throws in the towel. what should really be considered is what is really being fought for and what is the price that is going to be paid. how many lives will be lost and what will happen once one side gives in. what will you "win" and at what expense?

Please note, they hate war, not THE WAR.
