We were in danger way before we were in Iraq, and are still in as much danger as ever. It isn't like being in Iraq has changed anything or as if we're cleaning out every terrorist organization in the world. If anything, it has only pissed them off more and caused even more lives to be lost.

9/11 attacks casualties: 2,998
Iraq War (since 2003) casualties: about 3,500-4,000 and counting

Has it really been worth the price? Sure, we've hanged a bastard, but still, I ask again: Has it been worth the price? Now over 5 years of embarrassment and agony?

Also, what about the nations with (or soon to be with) WMD's that seem to hate us with every breath they take? I speak of North Korea and Iran for the most part. Are we going to invade them, too? What about all the talking we've been doing about terrorist organizations being funded/supplied by Iran? Why aren't we doing anything to them? Remember the incident on the seas just a few months ago in which some of our ships were approached by Iranian speedboats? Again: Why not go after them?

Yet we invade Iraq and take/endanger the lives of unknown numbers of civilians because of false claims of "Weapons of Mass Destruction"? And now we're claiming that if we leave, it will become a haven for terrorists? What the hell will they come up with next?

America voted Bush back into office the second time because they were scared of change and what it might do to the protection of our country.....................and now after 4 more years of watching Dumbya in office 78% of the people realized they made a mistake. We can't take another 4 years of war, we just can't, I don't care who is President.

We need to start looking after our own country and the people who actually live in it and stop policing other nations and let them take care of themselves. Worry about illegal immigrants, use our own oil resources, and lend a hand every now and then outside the country when needed but nothing more. We got too many things that need to be done in house. When most people that work minimum to lower paying jobs can't afford to commute to work because gas is just about higher than what they actually make in an hour, we got a problem. Hell I just went to the store to pick up a gallon of milk and a 12 pack of diet soda and it was $10.

The average price for a gallon of gasoline in the United States is 3.51 and rising, does a President have the power to control the oil prices? Is Exxon Mobile on its way to becoming a monopoly?

Ive emptied out a few beer cans to recycle and pissed in a stream a couple times.
