Small town, red state Amelia Island Florida resident, rebels against rethuglicans

'Shame, shame'

The most important decision a president can ever make is on the subject of war. George Bush and Dick Cheney told lie after lie after lie to the American people and they got what they wanted. And what are the results after nine years in Iraq? Over 4,500 of our men and women dead, over 30,000 severely injured, over $2 trillion wasted on this sorry war. It's the worst thing our country has ever done in my 60-plus years. We'll be paying for this war 60 years from now.

And let's not forget the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis and millions that left Iraq and are refugees in Syria and other nice places in the region. The country was destroyed by this war and our country has gone downhill since we illegally invaded Iraq. George Bush got his revenge and killed Saddam Hussein because he tried to kill Bush Sr. in 1992 and Dick Cheney, I'm sure, is still trying to get his bloody hands on that black oil in Iraq. He better hurry; Karma might get him first.

And to the writer who said Ronnie Sapp's views are worthless because he voted for President Obama is absolute nonsense. You claim Obama is probably the worst president in the history of our country because he wants to give health care to people who need help, his stimulus would have worked a lot better if not for the greed in our big banks and Wall Street. I bet General Motors would disagree with your Republican partisan opinion. I'd bet my last dollar you voted for Bush and Cheney in 2000 and 2004 and if you did, you voted for the worst president and vice president this country has ever had. Shame, shame.
