97% cannot point out where Kabul is, 85% of people do not know who Muqtada Al Sadr is. How is our society so disconnected from war. Do you think people in WWII were this clueless about our enemies? I do not think people in 1942 were unable to point out where Tokyo is or who Hideki Tojo was.

Just to make things certain I do not support the war in Iraq, but at least I know who we are fighting.

the war to most people was a fad. 9-11 prompted huge sales of flaggy patriotic garbage that ended around 2004. true patriots care, but i am convinced that since society has deemed it uncool to be american and that real interested and informed americans are those who will control the uninformed obessing over paris hilton and angelina "adopt-a-baby" jolie. I'm sad for America <:(

The only reason they are our enemy, is because the Bush Administration needed and enemy, and they have since the end of the cold war. So false flag 911 and bam, we have enemies, who will continue to be our enemies, as long as we occupy their country. The fact is America knew for years that Adolf Hitler, was killing, destroying, and doing only GOD knows what, and did nothing about it until Pearl Harbor, another event our government admits it knew about 12 days before hand. Sounds familiar doesn't it, false flag op, and go to war.

Okay, but Paris Hilton is in jail. And she dropped her dog. And Brittany shaved. Down there. And then she dropped her baby. OHMYGOD Courtney Love is clean, but still weird. And Ms. Holloway is still missing in Aruba and now there's a new pregnant lady missing and don't forget the runaway bride and then there's that mom of a missing kid that nancy grace drove to suicide and who oh who will be the american idol?
(We are liberals and homeschool; my sons are geography nuts.)

What I find sad is how many people wail about our President, but not a peep about people who like to cut off heads, shoot women in the back of the head at half-time at soccer games, and when deprived of an external enemy to attack, resort to killing each other, as in Gaza. The Islamic death cult gets a total pass, and the man trying in vain to save us from it gets blasted. The slew of traitors who like to tell the enemy our battle plans, and people who hate Bush more than they love America make me sick.
Yes "Fool", that's right, they bombed WTC in '93 because of Bush, and Khobar and Kenya and Tanzania and Cole and the Iran hostage thing when Mr. Peanut was President.... all because of bush "Fool"?

Yes it's sad, but it's not surprising. Look at our public schools.
Maybe if the liberals and teacher's unions would start allowing competition via vouchers, we could improve education, so more people would know where Kabul is.

The sorry American school system, ruined by the NEA and its union goons, is turning us into a nation of boobs.

Back in 1942 they still taught in our schools. Now, they're just babysitters (at our expense), who push students through.
I hate our public school system!
