And it doesn't even mention that :

--- we eliminated the safe haven Al Qaeda had in Afghanistan, by freeing the country from the Taliban

--- we killed or captured 2/3 of Al Qaeda senior leadership

--- we deposed and captured a brutal dictator, Saddam, plotting against the US and trying to destabilize the Middle East

Thanks for posting this great sign.

I had micro second of semi compassion for this troll, this morning in Church. Then, the micro second of compassion left me.

After viewing your post, I know that I was right in getting rid of my micro second of compassion for this Troll.

I came late to this thread, and ready to correct all your mind numbed leftist tripe opinions, and give you the facts.........but I see that's already been done in spades.

If you're still out there, I hope you've now read the TRUTH, and that it has seeped into your crusted brain and washed out the garbage that fouled up this forum with that ridiculous post......
