14. American foreign policy is too important to be left to extremists
shrub et al had their shot at mt rushmore , just like President ron before them. The facts are they blew it.

a little civil aid after ousting the soviets would have won enough hearts and minds to prevent a lot of crap. shrub did the same thing.

Instead of this damn tangent into iraq, we could have used the post 911 warm fuzzies in a much more productive way. say reopen some old trade routes so people could build lives. but do we have those civil funds? no!! cause we diverted them to start a war in iraq.

wonder why they say we love americans but ...
cause our foreign policy reminds one of a teenager learning to drive a stick shift. in two words: herky jerky.

that was cute while we were a young nation. but like the new puppy we have soiled the carpet too often. as an adolescent, me thinks we are perceived as a bully.

The American people need to take control, show the world that we can do preventative nonviolent maintenace on our system. then maybe some of them can calm down just a tadbit.
