At 44 yearsold I have 7 kids ages 16-26. They where all raised in a repuplican household only one has volunteered to join the service,my 22 yearold (male) is in college he has went from consernitive to liberal in about 6 months. (dissapointing lol).My 18 yearold (male) will finish highschool in June and will be in the Marines.This war is a mess it has split our country and as I am finding out first hand must be splitting families. For me it is such a easy answer but I see such resentment from the left it does make you step back and think.The problem I have with the left is they are like old women they just ***** they have no direction no answers.

Answer 2

You know propagandists write anything they want in Wikipedia don't you. People can even go in and change it and many extremists do just that. Now, how do you figure that Clinton was doing anything in Iraq? We were not allowed in there. They even refused to let the UN inspectors in. The only thing he did was order 400 bombing missions to ensure the no fly zone. Saddam had total control over that country, there was no opposition party or resistance group and he had one of the largest standing armies in the world. You must be smoking something. As for post invasion, Bush and the Generals intended to leave six months after the war but the UN declined to send peacekeepers and the Dem congress complained that we can't leave the poor darlings to twist in the wind. this is the goofiest thing I think I have ever heard. Seriously, do you not know that Wikipedia is not a real source of information? Its not acceptable in schools as a source, its just lot of press releases and political propaganda. Dude, wake up.

Answer 3

I don't think the Iraq situation is as bad as the liberals would have us believe, but with the economy up, they seem to be focusing not on what needs to be done to win, but how to make therepublicans look bad. I haven't heard a sloution from the Libs yet. God bless your children fighting in the service of their country!

Answer 4

Thanks for the service of your son, real life sometimes brings
out the best and worst in people. I regret both my boys were too
old. Even I would go if they were to take me, To defend our
Country is a Great Honor. Those that are afraid, would best
serve our Country by keeping their cowardice at home, and
not attack those trying to Defend our Country. If you are a Coward
stay at Home, nobody is asking you help. so stay out of the way
of real men.

Answer 5

Some of us want to take control of our own lives. Others want the government to take care of them. Followers are democrats and republicans are leaders.

I BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person’s dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.
I BELIEVE in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.
I BELIEVE free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity.
I BELIEVE government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn.
I BELIEVE the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations and that the best government is that which governs least.
I BELIEVE the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people.
I BELIEVE Americans must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times.
I BELIEVE Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world.
FINALLY, I believe the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.
