Then if we are still at war and it looks like we will be continuing our deployments in Afghanistan.

Shouldn't we vote in a Republican that has experience in Combat?

We are already there so lets insure we have the leadership to finish the mission!!

Answer 1

No one enjoys war, but certainly, Republicans don't panic when it comes to using the military.

It certainly makes me feel more comfortable with McCain in charge than Obama.

Answer 2

Neither candidate really has experience in winning wars.

Obama never served and McCain just crashed a plane and sat behind bars for a few years.  Neither of those situations teaches you how to wage and win a war.

Obama 08, Change we can believe in!

Answer 3

Nice going.   You have Democrats, Republicans, Whigs and Federalists on your Republican list!  Stop sleeping in Government huh....or go back to school

Answer 4

Forgot Bill Cliton in there. Bosnia, Operation Northern Watch(Iraq), Operation Southern Watch(Iraq), Desert Fox(Afghanistan/Sudan)

Answer 5

To tango you need two

Dozens of thousands of years before the emerge of Western civilization or America

Most of the time, it is not just due to a nation or head of state

Answer 6

No, the only people who are saying that are Obama supporters saying that President Bush and McCain love war. Nobody loves war! War is necessary to keep our country free and safe.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and l**k the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

-Samuel Adams
