Mike - 1/2 a brain - I would think so as I've probably been around longer than you've been potty trained, so I think I've been around the world a little more than you.

We did nothing to deserve 9/11, however, everything that is going on overseas goes hand in hand. I suppose you think it nice of the Iraqi's to blow up our tanks or set up roadside bombs, or set themselves up as suicide bombers. We should just let them do that and kill our men and you are okay with that? Go live in Iraq if you like them so well, you don't deserve to live in US.

I will say again, we should have leveled off the area over there and had it taken care of and earned the respect of other countries and maybe make them fear us somewhat.

And I suppose Dear Mike that you are a liberal heart who is not for capital punishment and would rather let a life sentence stand than the death penalty. Meanwhile, the taxpayers pay in the end $$$ wise for the sins of the felons. Use the death penalty wisely and rid the country of vermin and save the taxpayers $$$ instead of feeding and housing these leaches who end up living better than our homeless and starving. Or maybe the answer is to send them to Iraq and fend for themselves and then the only cost we would have would be to transport them there. Problem solved!
