those who forget history are doomed to repeat it, as we have learned with the men who forgot Vietnam and started this war. Bush is still in office, making bad decisions every week.
At which point are we going to look at his record and demand that something be done about it?
At which point are we going to stop justifying horribly bad moves by saying "gee it happened in the past, let's forget about it."
I'd sure like it if my bank would say they loaned me the money in the past, so we'll forget what I owe.
I bet there are a lot of criminals in jail who would love it if society would say "gee, it happened in the past, so let's forget about that silly old crime and set you free."
The hand that's been dealt is that we've killed and wounded so many people, spent the military coffers dry, all in this nebulous war on terror which, might I remind you, has still failed to catch or kill the only terrorist who has actually ever attacked the United States!
Not only has he attacked us, but he's attacked us twice. And he's still running around free as a bird while we go after this dink in the desert who never attacked us, and never even had the capability to attack us.
Am I gonna forget those decisions? Hell no, and it's the people that do that allow decisions like that to continue to be made.
