If we pulled out of Iraq and Afghanistan now, less American soldiers would die.

We wouldn't have to worry about Iraq and Weapons of Mass Destruction because there wasn't any in the first place! That was just an excuse for Dubya to give us the in to get into Iraq and fix what his father couldn't do, which was get Saddam. Now Saddam is dead and the killings are still going on. Has anything really changed when Dubya decided to go to Iraq? Yes it has, American soldiers are dying every day in the desert.

Clinton missed Osama by two days. Dubya hasn't even come close. My BIL served in Afghanistan and he knows. We never should have gone in there until we had better intelligence. But hindsight is 20/20 isn't it.

I find it very interesting that people like George Tenet, Colin Powell and other respected men of Dubya's administration have come forward and have stated we never should have gone to war. And what the hell, has everyone forgotten that it takes an Act of Congress to go to war? Did I miss something there.

Dubya, follow Britian's lead. Get out. Hell, you have already lost Britian's credibility and that is damn hard. Oh and we are hardly a superpower anymore. Look at Japan and China. More people are investing money in foreign markets, especially in Japan and China. I do this for a living, I know where the money is going and where it will go. Follow the money.

I think if we pulled out of iraq it would be no different even if we stayed. The middle east has been at war with each other for decades and they aren't going to change their way of thinking and way of life just because the U.S. Troops are there. The troops are just a band-aid on a wound that probably will never heal. I don't know what Bush thinks he's accomplishing with the troops still there, because the situation is not gonna change no matter how hard he tries you can't change a country way of thinking overnight or even in a few years. So we definantly should pull out because the troops being there is just fueling the fire of the terrorists and people that are anti-american. We need to work on are foreign relations and stop thinking everyone should think like americans, everyone is entitled to their own way of life as long as its not endangering people.imo

We're going to be out of Iraq as soon as Bush leaves office. I know Republicans are finally making some noise about our illegal occupancy in Iraq. Quite frankly, America has its own problems that this adminstration has been ignoring for far too long. Terrorism is a global epidemic- not the U.S.' pet project.

    • I'm curious the motivation for keeping Bela on beyond the circus story arc.  Did he play a character like his character on EON, or was he more of a good guy? I know he ended up with Sunny at the end of the series, but I always thought that Sunny/Hogan could have been revived once the lack of chemistry between him and the NuLiza became apparent.   Actually... the NuLiza (Louan Gideon) reminded me more of Sunny than she did Liza as played by Sherry... and she just threw off the whole vibe of the show. I see Estelle has just arrived in the late October 1985 episodes, which only means that Wendy and Stephanie are soon on their way out.   It also appears that the Sarah/Quinn/Wendy triangle was set up by Mayer.. and it looks as though Tomlin is going to deactivate it by the introduction of Colleen Dion's character.   I don't understand why no one on the show thought to look at Quinn and realize that he was the problem and write him out.

    • I kind of assume they're toning down Rachel's bad seed tendencies a bit to make it less obvious if they're going for her as the shooter. At least that's what I hope they're doing - I've really enjoyed Rachel being a bratty evil DiMera princess and Marlena finally getting a grandchild she deserves.

      . This show is so stupid. Sonny killed an FBI agent less than a year ago by shooting him at point blank range. But the new short bald man is much much worse cause he was a bad guy in some part of Africa and managed to not kill Lucky, Isaiah, Jason, or Anna. This show is crippled by the mob all these years after Guza has been long gone.    Laura is literally saying oooo but Sonny is a good mobster for Port Charles. Give me a [!@#$%^&*].ing break. Sometimes I don’t know why I watch this joke of a show.
    • With all the changes Sunny was one of the longest running characters by that time.  She had never been married and had heaps of story potential. I can see America getting with SFT -you know 'the circus soap'. Smart move because circuses were all the rage with the kids in the 80's. Maybe Stu and Jo could have bought the circus.
    • It is actually pathetic, that Victor’s 50 year old children are still written as scared of this man that has to sit in every scene. I get it, EB has been on the show for almost 50 years, but I don’t care. He’s a man in his 80’s and should not be the damn lead and driving force because you don’t want to upset Eric Braeden ‘s fragile ego that only exists because the writers have cowtowed to this man for so long.
    • PREACH Victor being written as he was 20 years ago to support EB's ego or some misguided belief that what worked decades ago is still relevant is destroying the show. Victor comes off as a rambling old fool holding on to vendettas and a desperate need for perceived power. His children still cow-towing to him makes them look equally foolish. If the writing portrayed Victor as  more of an irritant to them then maybe it would work.
    • They desperately need another meeting spot that isn’t Orphy Genes or the Country club. Y&R is awful now but there’s at least GCAC, Crimson Lights, Society, and the Jazz room at GCAC to meet at. 4 places is definitely better than 2 and I can’t imagine these rich folks literally only eat at their damn country club.
