118. Afghani women wouldn't be....
And no, I'm not trying to reiterate rightwing talking points about the war or anything like that. But facts are facts. If the U.S. military and its allies can make life better for innocent Afghanis by improving social justice for that country's citizens- and kill some psychotic terrorists along the way (ones who are with bin Laden...) -what is so terrible about that? Nothing. B...bu...but we shouldn't be telling other countries how to rule their citizens! Bullshit. Talk to me about WWII and Darfur, people.

I'm just thankful Obama believes in being a good citizen of the world and not a "fuck the 'US corporatocracy' even it means more young girls get stoned to death" type of person. He's a leader. Whether it's helping me and you pay for our health care and our kids' college if they go, or bringing justice to clear cut extremist killers and oppressors, Obama has something I wish more here in the "underground" left would have: empathy. It's makes him a good person and noble president.
