Zach makes an important point. I too served in the military. I have seen what an American presence can do.
http://ohtw.blogspot.com/2009/12/damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-dont.html It is unfortunate that America ends up having to police the world and be involved in everything. But that is what makes America great. We are a young democratic country. We try to help other countries and end up being the only ones left. After this happens we get blamed for destroying the countryand are called invaders even by the people who were supporting us.
What is going on? Why are we always the bad guy? It sure seems that everyone wants our "Western culture i.e. music, clothes and music ect. But no we are infidels. Give me a break. The Afghanis people want us there to help but the warlords, druglords and other bad guys don't want us there and will do everything to make us look bad.
About Me
- Scotty Scott
- Spent 6 years in the Army, Was a Police Officer (Too much paperwork, not enough action) I tend to lean towards the conservative side although I have liked some Democratic candidates in the past. I also take from both sides of the political isle. I haven't been very involved in politics but I hope the Govt class I am taking will broaden my horizons.
