Now if we can take this same level of disgust...

...that is leveled at the rightwing filth machine for it's obscene calls to violence and direct it towards the turning of families and children in to boiling red mist via our tax dollar paid-for Predator Drones, then we would be on to something.

Great speech Mr. President but when will you end the illegal Pakistani killings in all of our names?

1. Hey who gives a shit eh?

I get neg votes and little to no attention with this post.
So what?

I'll tell you.
My daughter's husband is in Kandahar right now working in the hospital.
The majority of those treated are Afghans. Coalition forces go out and wound them and the hospital fixes them. That is what is going on over there.
That is the fucking insanity of Obama's war.

I have heard that more drone attacks occurred in the first nine months of Obama's Presidency then the last three of Shrub's combined.
And that the percentage of innocent people killed compared to "bad guys" killed is ugly.

We condemn what happened in Tucson for sure as we should but the deafening silence towards the beloved Obama and his war is a sickening silence in my view.

2. I missed this earlier
The wars are my number one issue. The US/Coalition kills many people. We have to leave, it's wrong, it's dumb, it's very expensive. Rec'd
