Yes the globalist RHINOs like along with the Dem Globalist helped but they stayed there far too long. Once that PoS, OBL, was fish food we should have been gone. Iraq was completely unjustified.

And Dems were the ones that fricked up the exits.

Your point?

This is a fact. Weapons of mass destruction or something like that.

You're either uninformed or an outright liar. There was a man who ran for President in 2008 and 2012 who was the most anti-war candidate of anyone running.

I'm sure you were probably in grade school when all this happened, but it was very much a bipartisan decision

Republicans and Democrats both voted for the two wars.

Both sides were wrong.

I was wrong.

Get all the women and young children out and kill all the men. Have heard the same thing from so many different vets and contractors over the years. Will never happen though so we just spend money and waste lives.

Hey bro, who said in the 2004 campaign that he was for the war in Iraq before he was against the war?

When the establishment used 911 as a reason to go, most of America was for it. Please show us your E-mails and texts from 2003-4 so we know you are pure of heart and above reproach. Until then GTFO.

Do they though? I thought it was common sense that Republicans are the war party. I'm pretty sure this isn't disputed by anyone. They want a reason to keep the military budget as high as possible.
