Use you head Anthony - The "Contract with America" Newt Gingrich controlled Congress in the 90's forced the then President Bill Clinton to sign NAFTA because he didn't have the votes for a Veto.

Then president george Bush launched us into the Iraq and Afghan wars that we're continuing to pay for today. Do you get it Tony?

Yeah, I can see why the Republicans want to stop funding SSI, unemployment insurance, and health care. Halliburton needs more billions overseas.

Makes total sense to me.

Sounds like the economic stimulus in Afghanistan didn't work. Surprise surprise. Cut off these jerks. They don't deserve our money and blood.

Oh, but wait, such spending cuts would cause the country to "collapse".

America is proving time and again how it is being run by the dumbest and most inept people to be found anywhere in this country. American politicians amount to nothing more than greedy self centered egomaniacs that don't have a clue how to address and resolve problems, they are being lead around by their nose by lobbyists and special interest groups, if they did have an ounce of brains they would realize America and the American people need help far more than some poppy poppin country on the other side of the world. I don't know why the dumb American politician thinks America can do what Russia failed do. The smartest thing America could do would be to pack up and get the hell out NOW, and just label it another Vietnam experiment that also went bad. Young men, women and children are being killed, and for what reason. Terrorists could not create as much death and destruction as America and it's allies have caused. I myself am not in no way Anti-America however I truly am Anti-Dumb American Politicians of which we have way to many.

You undoubtably are living in a fantasy world, a place where politicians are honest credible people who never tell lies and when they say something they actually mean it. Well, wake-up look around and see for yourself where you really are, you're in America, the land of crooked politicians creating one of the most corrupt governments to date.

Yet another legacy project that needs to be discontinued. Get out of Afghanistan now and start spending American dollars in America for Americans.

We need to get the bleep out of the place its a waste time money and most importantly America lives. Lets use our tax money in our country rather then that sand pit where the people don't can about Americans and will stab us in the back just as soon as we turn around.

Karazi wants America to scale back military operations as he is working deals with the Taliban and Iran.
In the end it will be wasted money and wasted American servicemen and womens lives. The Taliban WILL control Afghanistan just like Iran WILL control Iraq after were gone.

Remember no foreign army has ever won in Afghanistan, case in point Russia with thousands more troops and equipment and they lost.

Americans need jobs here at home, and it`s not that hard. To begin with tax breaks need to be given to ALL businesses who hire new employees a percentage for each new employee. Businesses need to institute trainee programs. JFK did this and it worked as it brought us out of the recession of the early 1960`s.

We need to cut all foreign aid and spend our tax dollars here at home. Remember all foriegn aid is for the most part wasted monies and gone forever we get nothing out of it.

As O`buma continues to intentionally devalue the dollar life is going to get much harder for us to survive. Something must be done to preseve our way of life before we are put into a deep depression..
