"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Stop Sacrificing US Soldiers
Submitted by Don Stacy on Tue, 2011-08-09 01:00
"The 38 deaths in Saturday’s helicopter crash in Afghanistan include 31 Americans, making this the deadliest day for U.S. forces since the war began. The tragic loss of American lives might be worth the sacrifice if it was making America safer, or if our presence was significantly improving the well-being of the Afghan people. But neither of these is true."

Enough already. Bring 'em back, discharge them and set them toward gainful private employment.
Stop sacrificing innocent Afghans.
