kasey, i know not everyone will be happy with the US and we will certainly always have our enemies. that is not really the point here.
the need to disarm and prevent people with the desire and backing to attack us on our own soil is very important to me, as it should be to you. the simple truth is that we were attacked, we the citizens. we elect leaders and hold a standing army in this country to protect us and try to prevent such events.
if you think the solution to another attack on american soil is to stand around with our hands in our pockets you are sorely mistaken.
we hold higher technology and further reaching resources than any nation in the world. putting these thigns to good use to prevent the deaths of thousands more citizens is by design of the government, not the decision of a texan.
you guys can spend all the time you want picking and choosing who is good or bad in government. this is about the safety of a nation and the ability to be a true world leader. not about what you personally think of the president.
it amazes me that 62% of the dems in office voted to go forth with this same war, yet everyone wants to act like GW made the decision all by himself. many people here clearly have more information based on old rhetoric than on how our government and world wide politics actually work.
