A White House Move I Agree With

[42nd-delay]

Just so people don't think I ignore the good things Bush does, even if they're very, very few and far between (sorry, could only find it in a Brit newspaper):

US raises Afghanistan aid (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2003/08/02/wafg02.xml&sSheet=/portal/2003/08/02/ixportal.html)

Granted, it's long overdue, but anyways...

and why do you agree wtih this. These countries should not recieve a fucking dime from us!!! Considering i got laid off 5 months ago and still cant fid a job maybe dubya should send that money through the homeland first! And what do you think we will get out of helping afghanistan financially? Do you think once the money gets there it will go to the right people ha probally goes straight to the opium kings . F all of them time for nukes!!!!

True, true, true. A quality move all around.

It sadly seemed like everyone had forgotten about Afghanistan for a while except for the troops we had in the mountains and the two major cities. That place is an even bigger mess than Iraq with all the warlords who have basically carved up the country with little interest in following the ruling party we installed. Could this be the future of Afghanistan or even Iraq? Official states within the nation as we have? Or should we possibly consider allowing these countries to be broken up? These countries did not exist, for the most part, until the European colonialists started pulling out in the late 1800's and early 20th century and these various tribes and groups were thrown together into single countries like Iraq. Myabe the answer lies in NOT trying to force all of these groups to live under a single leader or ruling party?

Man, where was Fox News with this story?

and why do you agree wtih this.

You gotta pick up your toys when you're done playing for the day. Nobody likes a mess.

Thats a good point mojo but im saying we have already done enough for these people. FUCK FORIEGN POLICY!!!! Worry about the shape of your own country and then if there is time + money look to others who need help. And please dont tell me its our fault afghanistan needs to be rebuilt because we could always let the taliban return to power and we will se how much help they get then

But that will just allow groups like Al Queda to have another safe haven. How the hell does that help us? We're doing what we're doing so that those groups do NOT return to Afghanistan and take power again.

worry about the shape of your own country

Perhaps it has escaped you notice that opium production is up by about a factor of 10.
Our warlord "allies" are the ones growing it. Refined into heroin, it's on it's way over here.
The government we put in there only controls Kabul.
We don't have enough troops over there to do much.
The "Marshall Plan for Afghanistan" hasn't gotten beyond the slogan stage.
The terrorists we are allegedly at war with sit back, unbothered in their safe havens in the mountains of our other "ally", Pakistan.
Al Qaida/Taliban is able to send out hundreds of fighters on raids that are largely unopposed.
The only good news is I saved 15% on car insurance by switching to GEICO.

Whoa, STAND BACK!!!

Someone's got an opposing view on the president! And is USUALLY having such a view! Because his politics usually disagree with the president's! YIKES!!!

PHEW! Man, who woulda expected THAT in country where literally HALF the voters voted against him? I thought there were only like TWO of the fuckers.

Seriously though.

Se7en.

People don't like Bush.

A LOT.

And on most of what he does.

Remember how you and your pals felt during the Clinton years?

Yeah, it's just like that.

Deal with it. It's the nature of the beast. Stop acting like you need to take the bullet for him EVERY TIME someone doesn't compliment him.

I love you (platonically), Mojo, but you wasted far too many words and time admonishing me for what essentially amounts to a stupid joke.
