uhh... fall back and work on national security.... well... heres my 3 fiddy!

The government spends too much money on pointless programs, when that money can be going to home defense. also, true home defense cant happen unless we imprison and weed out all the bad muslims from good... but the liberals will cry like no other.

why would pulling our troops home make it more secure? i dont see how that would happen... a shotgun isnt gonna save me from fleas.

in case you haven't noticed, iraq is the frontline right now... yeah, it looks like it can get better, but its probably doing as good as it can do right now. ya gotta remember that the world's best strategists are working hard... the CIA and US government are brilliant. theres obviously a larger problem at hand than just iraq or terrorism, its never that simple.

i dont know why you people cant just let the government do its job without nitpicking every detail. you're the ones trying to lose momentum in this war. the government can do many more positive things, but they won't right now, so lets just deal with it. writing in newspapers or on tv about how bad it is isnt changing anything, its just depressing everyone, when actually, its much more positive than you think.
