Obama right about Iraq

Sun., June 22, 2014

Thank you President Obama, for not sending our young people to war again. This strife in Iraq has been going on for centuries. It is bigger and deeper than the United States going over and killing people, and being killed, can solve.

I am also very thankful Sen. John McCain was defeated for president. He would have us fighting other people’s wars all over the globe. Just listen to him.

Of course, the defense contractors would be better off if more of our tax money went to them. That is, as long as the financial responsibility fell on the shrinking middle class and not on the wealthy.
