But the ones I care about most are seriously hurting. Getting out of Afghanistan is good but at this point it's such a huge failure even a republican president might draw dawn...we could never please the idiots in the house if representatives but they have turned into knuckle dragging cavemen erroneously quoting scripture to support any bat shit crazy injustice they can come up with.
