- I'd say the U.S. Intel community and NSWDG were pretty damn effective in killing Bin Laden.

- Folks in Afghanistan who were living under Taliban rule don't think the War on Terrorism is stupid.

- I also would imagine the folks in Iraq that had been through Saddam's rape and torture rooms don't think the War of Terrorism is stupid. Pretty sure the Kurds would agree too.

- The War on Terrorism won't be over in our lifetimes. As long as there are Muslim extremists who believe violence is the way to advance their religion and is the way to paradise, and there are Muslim leaders willing to manipulate/exploit them to advance their agendas, we will be a target and it won't be over.

Thank you. The comparison between: (1) the attempt to stop people from voluntarily using mind altering drugs and (2) the attempt to stop people from killing innocent civilians is flawed on so many levels.

Not flawed. I would imagine that drugs have killed more people than terrorism. Also, I'm willing to bet you that we've killed more innocent people than the people we are trying to stop. Irony. Doesn't matter if it's not our people though. **** those brown people!!! WHO NEEDS THEM? AMIRITE? (if you can't tell the last bit is sarcasm....well then)

back on topic. I find this hilarious.



Obama calls for decriminalization on drugs and called the war on drugs a utter failure.


Fast forward now.

White House “drug czar” Gil Kerlikowske called the report “misguided.” Office of National Drug Control Policy spokesman Rafael Lemaitre added, “Making drugs more available as this report suggests will make it harder to keep our communities healthy and safe.”

I understand your sarcasm. However, do you believe people actually have the thoughts in bold? If so, who?
