The real question isn't being asked...the real question is "what the
hell are we doing making war on people in so many places, and are our
efforts making us safer?"

It's been entertaining watching John McCain and Lindsay Graham going
over the waterfall the last couple of weeks over the Chuck Hagel
nomination. The two are still upset that Hagel thought Dubya's
initiation of wars against Iraq and Afghanistan were ill-advised, and
McCain and the rest of the neocons are upset that Hagel might not be as
eager as they are to initiate a war against Iran. And this gets back to
my disdain for the military establishment, of which McCain and his
buddies are a part.

I can understand why we originally went into Afghanistan. But I don't
understand why we are still there, other than political deals.

As for McCain, I respect his military service and hardships he endured,
but as a United States Senator he has lost all his luster.
He's just as bad as the ultra left progressives, IMO. Time to retire,
I think .... maybe past his time.




Ultra left progressives? Hell, I don't know any, and I have actual
socialists among my friends and acquaintances. Who are some ultra left
progressives in positions of influence and authority?
