No, because Democrats win wars that Republicans start, clean up financial messes Republicans leave us with, and stand up to dictators around the world.I’ve voted for Democrats my entire life. It’s the only correct choice.Incorrect, you are voting for the democrat as you are told too.
as always.
is your candidate that bad?
Yes, if you're looking for handouts.
And that was the point. You said you were voting "against Trump." But that's not really true, you'd vote Democrat no matter who the candidates were
Did you forget Obammy's world apology tour?
View attachment 366465
I don't care much for Obama but we do have a lot to apologize for.
No, we don't. We have a few things at best. But most of what the US has done in the world, has been to the benefit of the entire world.
OK...a few. Should we not apologize for those?
Sure. Not one of things Obama apologized for, is in those few things. Obama basically apologized for us doing what was right.
Romney complained that Obama apologized for America dictating to other countries. The reason for Iraq and Syria was because they would not roll over and allow us to dictate to them.
Now if you want to call Obama a hypocrite, I'll not argue.
Syria we should have never been involved with ever. There was never a reason for it.
With Iraq, there was. And quite frankly, the Iraqis were glad we were there. Saddam was a psychotic murderer, with WMDs. And don't tell me he didn't, when we know for a fact he used them. There places in Iraq, that still to this day have nerve gas in lethal concentrations. BBC did a documentary on this.
There is nothing we need to apologize for in Iraq. Except for pulling out too early, and allowing ISIS to tear the country apart, which likely due to Obama.
As for Syria, the only thing we need to apologize for, is that Obama openly invited the Russians in, which basically doomed everyone to death who didn't side with WMD using Assad.
If Obama had gone around apologizing for his own incompetent actions, I'd have more respect for it.
We've been killing the same people in Iraq we condemned Saddam for killing. For some oddly it's OK when we do it. If they were so happy we did what we did we wouldn't still be there near 20 years later.
Never mind how we engaged in torture there.
We should not have released all the people who became ISIS. I would love to know who decided to release all the people we had locked up, but I wager it was Obama.
You can't just hold people forever without ever charging them with anything or even proving they should have been held in the first place. Is that really the kind of country you want us to be? Would we accept that out of another country?
The military in 2010, said that we had 80 or 90% of the entire leadership of Islamic State locked up in detainment facilities.
They should have stayed there. But someone screwed up. I can't pin it on Obama, because I can't find any orders that tie back to him. But it happened, and someone made the call.
That is why we are still there. We left too fast, and didn't manage the situation right, and we released people that hated us, so they could create more problems for us.
We left on the promises Bush gave Iraq. The mistake was going full back in because we never really fully left.
I have first hand accounts from soldiers that returned from Iraq, that the Iraqis were happier with US soldiers, than Americans are with the police. Which is why some have decided not to be police officers after coming back to the states.
Saddam was a nightmare for the Iraqis. There is no question they supported his removal by the US military.
They may initially been happy. Then they realized we were torturing their friends and relatives.

We have. I don't know what you are talking about. We have several times in history.
If you are captured in combat, by military personnel, yeah... it's normal to hold those people for years on years without charging them with a crime in a court somewhere.
Most countries do not charge people caught in a war situation, in some court somewhere, and send out investigators to the front lines, dig for clues around land mines and artillery shells. What you are saying is absurd.

Your opinion.

No, not true. Simply not true.
