And then there are the thoughts that come out of no where...
Well, not nowhere, but close, like you watch a show, and you think of your political views. For example, my father's a republican and my mother's a democrat, my brother's a republican, my sister's a democrat, and I think I'm going towards the republican stand point on SOME if not most issues.
Like a woman's right to chose. Myself, I would probaly never have an abortion, however I do believe it is the choice of the person whom is carrying the child to make that choice. I don't support it as an option of birth control, (come on, if your going have sex, have the brains, to do it safely).
I didn't really support going to war in Iraq, however, I don't believe in leaving a job undone, which is exactly what will happen if we pull out, it will be undone, AND it will be worse than when we went in. We we unprepared for the long haul? Yes. How do we fix? Short of reinstating the draft, I have no clue. We are hold several operations, w/ a military that isn't properly staffed for the job. Which is unfortunate.
Some people may not support the war, but they really need to support the troops, and some people don't get that. They are over there for something we (the majority) believed in, and b/c some people are just beginning to realize that this war that is going on, isn't a small thing, nor is it going to be over in two weeks, it's going to be a long one.
And we cannot go back to sticking our head in the sand and hoping it's going to blow over, b/c frankly that's how we got into this mess, b/c we were america, and terrorist attacks don't happen here. Terrorists don't respond to white flags, or peace talks, they respond to violence, and THAT IS unfortunate. But how do you fix something like that. B/c the problem itself is on a religious level. How do you believe that your life has so little meaning in life, that you are willing to blow yourself up. And w/ you, you take a mother, a child, a husband, or/and a soldier that may have been all of those?
Tough questions, but so little answers?
