3. REMINDER

The US isn't the only country there.

The only reason any country is still there is because the REPUBLICANS FUCKED UP THAT WAR.

100% of the blame for children left parentless and families wondering what they'll do to fill that huge hole in their lives is the result of the last administration.

They should have been impeached, removed, and thrown into prison for abandoning that war effort just when they had the remnants of al Qaeda cornered. Instead, they let them go on to destabilize Pakistan.

Every death in that war since then plus every death in their ridiculous misadventure in Iraq belongs to them, no one else.

At a percentage of those fall to his feet, don't they?

11. France needs to get their fuckning troops out of there

The only difference between Afghanistan and Iraq is that the UN was not against invading Afghanistan....
