3) To some people "it's past" however to that iraqi woman who just put her little two year old daughter into the ground or the three year old with his/her legs blown off, it will never be over and no one seems to realize or can comprehend the needless misery and suffering this one individual and the group behind him has caused.
The American People must NEVER FORGET that we as a people were lied to about this costly and miserable war. and it is this war that has broken the American economy. We are talking hundreds of trillions of dollars go to this site and watch the dollars flip over it is beyond one's comprehension costofwar.com... This will break America's financial back.
People need to put down that love novel, put away the video games and turn off dancing with the stars and start researching and learning about the people they are putting into power.
And to all the people here who have lost loved ones it will never be over. The Iraqi's aren't the only ones suffering. Their losses are no greater or lesser than the losses felt here. People here have also lost children, and some have lost limbs. Not to mention the ones who've lost their lives. Those people are never talked about though. Everyone likes to overlook the fact that thousands upon thousands of families here have been irreparably changed as well in favor of speaking only about the losses felt in Iraq. Why is that?

Yes, I also feel for the families of those soldiers BUT those soldiers willingly went over there.

However there are three purposes to beating this damn horse just a little more, it is called reflection so as to not repeat past mistakes.

You have bought into exactly what the main stream media has sold you.
Obama made it all on his own.
