your missing the point. I think the best way to support the troops is to bring them home. I know their families feel the same way. Also, I am not left-wing. I am non partisan. I vote on the issues which I feel are important not my pocketbook unlike most americans (not saying you just most...) If you havent read my previous posts I state clearly that I am very glad to live in this country. I know a mother who got arrested outside the white house for protesting. her son was killed in the towers on 9-11. Want to know why she was there? Because she said she remembers how she felt when she learned her son was dead and didnt want the mothers of our troops to feel the same way. Also the mothers of innocent iraqis that would die as well.

I agree we have done good things like Ive been saying. The reason I posted this was not because Im anti american or even anti bush. I posted this -in case you skipped the first paragraph- because I wanted to present all sides of an issue which most americans are not aware of.

9-11 happens and we say 'oh poor america we are always victims'
9-11 1973 - how come we arent saying oh the poor chileans??? why? becuse we did it to them. More chileans died from our actions on 9-11 than americans died on our 9-11. All i want is for americans to realize this.

Everything happens for a reason. Thats all im saying. I will not tolerate anybody calling me anti american or unpatriotic because my political agenda doesnt suite theirs.

So what if Im hurting GW BUSH. Nobody cared when they were hurting Clinton. How is this anydiffernt? Once again I am non partisan so dont even chalk that up to 'im just sore becaue the right wingers are running the country.'

Let me state another point (from my non-partisan point of view) the only reason we are in iraq is because the government is so far to the right. YOu think a democratic congress would have approved Bush's request to use military force if he wanted??? NO! the only reason is because they are republican and bush is republican. The same goes if it was a democrat trying to do the same thing.

ERRRRRRRRRR? Your goddam right
