"Finish the job" what do they mean? what are they trying to say? |
|
I hear this response all the time about Iraq on tv man-on-the-street interviews/questions this response typically comes from sour old ladies or horrible fat guys with beards.

1. I hear this same remark from idiots who believe we failed in Vietnam.. |
|
because the "politicians didn't let the military finish the job". I take this to mean that we annihilate the population in order to save it. I think they believe that if anybody protests against the war they are somehow preventing us from "finishing the job". These people are either incredibly stupid (not having learned from history) or have a dangerously simplistic, nationalistic way of looking at these issues.

You can see it in the way they say it, the expression on their faces. I imagine it's the same look the Germans had in the late 30's. It is an awful expression expressed by awful "people".

You know, the people who never are asked to DO the job they want to finish.
