it is sad that our leaders use up and spit these young people out for their own designs that have nothing to do with 'protecting' us, but i will not pin blame on either repug or dim alone -they do this
**** together. they have been leading us down this ugly path together. i also blame it on parents who are sooooo willing it seems to send their young ones to 'glory'. i blame it on the young themselves for being so naiive, stupid, and ugly- all so eager to live off the spoils of war.-blegh! all so willing to ignore that war is about sending your young to kill their young for the 'glory' (purposes) of the old.
war should only be about keeping cultures distinct so that all might thrive-if they are working-not about overrunning and making 'them' 'us'! 'they' should not (and don't) want to be us, and we should not and (and don't) want to be them. certainly we can learn from each other, but we don't need to make each other 'us'. this is what we keep trying to do-make everyone us-make everyone live 'our way'-but 'our way' doesn't WORK! and u can see that when u see these young people left to fend for themselves, u can see that in our polluted skies and in the eyes of our athsmatic (sp?) children who r taught in run-down schools that 'our way' is the 'best way', and u can see that in our cancer rates and in our 'wars' that never end. and religion keeps us from worrying about it-after all we're to be saved! bah humbug!
let's save EVERYTHING ourselves by stopping this stoopid, imperialistic, hubristic insanity!
