So, here's my concern Bushbots, and it's strategic:

Kosovo, Iraq, North Korea, Afghanistan, Colombia, Taiwan, Indonesia, the Phillipines... are we going to have enough personnel, munitions, and supplies and still "provide for the common defense"?

That is a good question!

Are we going to feel some pain in our everyday life from the requirement for resources? YES!

Can we do it? YES!

[thatdewd]

are we going to have enough personnel...

We're not spread as thin as the media makes it sound. If I remember right, just a couple of weeks ago Clinton was reminding the Germans (or somebody) that they had more troops in Afghanistan than we did. Our 'regular' soldiers are being concentrated you know where, while we only have small groups of 'special' troops in those other places. The media just wants us to think we're spread too thin.

We can do it..

Just remember who left all these time bombs....for Bush to clean up....give him time.

My preference is that we do the heavy lifting, then turn these third world sh!t-holes over to NATO and / or the UN.

BTW, the Brits announced they are pulling troops out of Kosovo. That's a good thing!

Yup. Far too many. In my opinion the Axis of Evil strategy is a mistake. The proper response was to limit the war to locales with proven al Qaeda presence, such as Afghanistan, Sudan and the Philippines; and avoid like a plague a war on Arab regimes simply because we don't like them. Now the War on Terror has completely lost focus.
