Is America ready to fight a 100-year war ?
I heard a Repug spokesman make the declaration the other day - that this war could last 100 years. Is America willing to invest our nation's fortune on fighting such a war? Is it necessary? Is it possiblethat there is an alternative to a 100-year war? Are we willing to commit our sons and daughters and national wealth on the judgement of George W Bush and the Republicans? Are we really that trustworthy of this regime? Isn't it time to start asking questions? How many more must die because of the misjudgements of this "misleader"? How far should we travel down a road of lies? Should we walk for a hundred years?

1. The war against Repuglicanism could last 100 yrs-or longer
Those assholes aren't American. Time to put send those bad boys to their room, and give them all toys they can't hurt anybody with.

3. 50,000 Moslims
X 100 years = 5,000,000 deaths. better make it a thousand years if you want happy neocons.

5. Bullshit
No way this will last 100 years with our continued involvement. We'll be out in 20 maximum and at worst, it'll be like Israel.
