Please! No More War. No More Mission Creep
Advertisements [?]
One of the things that made Barack Obama a hero to me before the election was his pledge to get us out of Iraq. Well, we're getting there.

But Afghanistan? Nothing good coming out of our increasing involvement there, as far as I can see.

And Libya? More and more involvement there. We don't even know if we like the rebels. John McCain likes our involvement. It must be bad.

Syria? Are we going to have to jump into that mess?

Yemen?

I see no end to it.

Don't people see that many of our domestic problems could be paid for with the money that is going into this imperialistic perspective? And oil? How much oil do we use in these escapades?

I still prefer our President to anyone else in the field. Can it be that he thinks that continued military conflict is what we want?
