Stop blaming the voters. The administration shoud have went ape-shit on the terrorists and fought a war instead of having our troops hand out candy to little kids.



The troops hand out candy to the kids on their own time.

You should be ashamed of yourself for belittling them and denying them that little pleasure and enjoying the smiles on the kids faces which also makes them feel a little closer to their own kids here at home.

Candy aside - I don't think that was his point - we haven't given them nearly enough hell over there. I don't know what happened to the idea of "shock and awe" but I never saw it. We were overly concerned with protecting civilians and now we're dealing with a population that sees no good reason not to support terrorist. Hell, the terrorist are meaner than we are. Why wouldn't they bend to them instead of us?

But I don't know if the entire blame for this can rest on President Bush. We fight wars differently today than we used to and that's been a long time in the making. And it's at our own peril, I believe.

Well that's all heart-string tugging, but it still doesn't win the WOT.
