A better question might be: Why did we stay there after we routed the enemy?<br /><br />I thought you might enjoy one of my favorite MLK quotes:<br /><br />"Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love...".<br /><br />That is by memory so I hope it is accurate.Kentucky Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16753739401363847764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-25907807499057390772009-12-06T00:27:27.539-06:002009-12-06T00:27:27.539-06:00Vigilante: Above all else, the thing I like you is...Vigilante: Above all else, the thing I like you is your honesty.<br /><br />Madmike: When there are so many countries wit problems (e.g. Darfur, where they are raping women every night) please tell me: why did we have to go to this country in the first place?Mac Daddy Tribute Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01483912561779369669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-18051334415605118132009-12-06T00:26:38.119-06:002009-12-06T00:26:38.119-06:00Vigilante: Above all else, the thing I like you is...Vigilante: Above all else, the thing I like you is your honesty.<br /><br />Madmike: When there are so many countries wit problems (e.g. Darfur, where they are raping women every night) please tell me: why did we have to go to this country in the first place?<br /><br />Kit: Welcome. And, yes, this is why I put these two pictures together to show the connection between violence abroad and violence at home. And you're right about the kids too. They don't know what's going on, but they know they are bored, want to get into something in a hurry.

Gang violence is the poor boy's option.Kit (Keep It Trill)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03027769872237001801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-77053557190548350332009-12-05T14:35:33.470-06:002009-12-05T14:35:33.470-06:00Daddy help me with something please......
I pict...Daddy help me with something please...... <br /><br />I picture a country with a strong western influence, obtained and fought for by the western allies. Here is that picture:<br /><br />Everyone is allowed to go to school, men, and WOMEN. Gasp! Women are allowed to get an education. Women are entitled to medical care and their husbands are no longer entitled to beat them. Women are now allowed to hold public office and raise their children with their best interests at heart. It is now possible for women to be doctors, lawyers, writers and etc. Women are no longer beaten and executed for the slightest transgression. All people are allowed to think and act independent of the religious oppression. Terrorism and poppy fields are no longer allowed. Farmers now grow crops and tend to their animals without fear of warlords and al Qaeda. <br /><br />I now a picture a country that had none of that. I now picture a country that tortures and murders its most precious legacy, its children, because the mother, also murdered, was suspected of a religious transgression. I now picture a country that only allows religious zealots to hold office, an office that was selected not by the people but by the the religious leaders. I now picture blood and death on the landscape. Everywhere I look there is persecution and prosecution. I see a government that provides succor to those who would cause great harm to us and our allies, as they did on September 11, 2001.<br /><br />So please tell me again why we should leave this country? It could be any country. Please, tell me again why we should leave?Kentucky Rainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16753739401363847764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7737268075572482842.post-30209546162561820302009-12-05T13:13:45.090-06:002009-12-05T13:13:45.090-06:00Can't live it, Daddy.
