“I think many conservatives don’t feel saving one Iraqi is worth one soldier or American. They can’t seem to focus on the big picture.”
I hear the same thing in my household (and there is only one other person in my household).
We have a moratorium on discussing it. He’s very conservative but a pacifist. He doesn’t think we should have fought the revolutionary war!!!
He uses that one American life line also on the rare occasions when we discuss it.
He is a veteran by the way but ....
There’s only one other in my household too! Unless you want to count the dog.
