1. Rationalizing More War

Trying to excuse the inexcusable. Say it isn't so Mr. President.

2. He will end 2 wars during his presidency

I applaud his efforts.

[Fearless]

3. Well he's currently 0 for 2....

[Reform]

4. what wars?

there is only occupation, there is no standing armies to face
This is simply an escalation of the occupation.
Yes there once was a war in Iraq but the bath party and Sadam's military was defeated quite easily
Nothing more than good old fashion empire dominance
All of which i believe is much worst than simply fighting a war
If you think America will be out of either Iraq or Afghanistan by the end of his term you are not being rational.

6. Blackwater is waging war in Pakistan and Uzbekistan, right

Maybe he or she means those?

But I don't think the President will stop them.

5. What good is prophecy?

7. Many thanks, Zola, for putting this all together. I'm now clicking on Part 2.

Yes, this is appropriate --> :patriot:

8. YW, Hekate

I had never posted in this forum, but I couldn't believe that the speech wasn't already posted here. I was very proud of our president today.
