I'm proud to be an American because our military and their Commander in Chief have liberated 50 million people who are now free from tyranny, and creating their own fledgling democracies.

I'm proud to be an American because we are the only country in history to have enough power to be imperialists who conquer nations for our own gain, but only use our power to make people free.

I'm proud to be an American, and this spending on Iraq and Afghanistan doesn't take a single thing away from it.

I'm proud of this President. I'm proud of our military. And I'm prouder than I've ever been of this great country.

You should be proud. Governments couldn't grow without citizens like you.

Do you want the US to "free" every "unfree" country on earth and then spend even more in blood and money to make certain that they don't backslide into "unfreedom"?

I believe that Iraq and Afghanistan is just preparatory for the real war coming in 5-10 years. (chicoms) And, I too, believe it is money well spent.

i'm not proud i'm being ripped off while hundreds of billions have gone missing....and can't be accounted for. if it's for our troops that's fine, but i have a feeling lots of graft and blackmail money are being thrown around.

does that make you feel good? i'm disgusted. the oil was supposed to pay for this adventure.
