You know the funny part? I didn't hate Clinton. I didn't despise Clinton. On a few things I even liked him. I would have voted for Daschle. I would vote for quite a few Democrats.
Now they voted for it but didn't start it? I don't understand what that means.
As for Haiti, we don't have a never-ending supply of military. What should we do? What did we do? What did other countries do?
As for your "colleagues are fighting and dying everyday"...well that is war and whether it was Iraq, Haiti, or France, they'd be fighting and dying every day in a war.
I didn't ask you to love Bush. I didn't ask for blind loyalty. I don't think anyone does. But what I do find ridiculous is people thinking that Kerry is a saint. He voted for the war. The war is no longer something that separates them. He said he would go to war even without WMD. His wife is a billionaire, declared 5 million in income (impossible), and only paid 12% taxes on that for about 600K - this while her husband is busy talking about taxing the wealthy.
They are one in the same on many things. They are corrupt. Each tried to spend as much money as possible to buy America and only one succeeded.

Yet when we (the military) had the chance to go to Haiti and provide some real aid to people who needed it, we didn't go...maybe they didn't have enough oil for our President. Maybe it wasn't in accordance with his Daddy's agenda...Either way, I do agree that we all have an opinion and mine is that any man who would sacfrice loss of life, wreck the economy, and place such fear of terrorism in the average American that he skates through another election does not deserve to run a country. 3 yrs after 9/11, we still have not located Osama, the person mainly responsible, but people are saying this man (Bush) has kept us safe!?! How?! If you had been raped or assaulted and the police still hadn't caught the culprit 3 yrs later, would you applaude them for keeping you safe? I respect your opinion and that of all Republicans, but I reserve my right to dislike Bush regardless of the fact that he is our President...I don't do blind loyalty.
Asking me to like Bush is like asking you to like.... Clinton.
