Quote from PHOENIX TRADING:

Something primarily liberals need to learn is :
Trying to do good and being/having good(results) are often 2 completely separate things.

Yep, Iraq for example. I totally agree. Afghanistan is another example. And, yes, even some well intended programs at home as well. I prefer to keep on trying, not on the wars, but on good things, rather than just give up.

Now, on to China, Obama is sounding pretty tough. Tough talk about trade and leveling the playing field. I wonder how the right - left debacle and pundits will handle this one.

Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- The U.S. Army soldier accused of killing 16 Afghan men, women and children in a house-to-house shooting rampage could face the death penalty, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said.

Panetta spoke to reporters as he flew to the Central Asian nation of Kyrgyzstan for high-level talks Tuesday.
Hundreds of Afghans took to the streets Tuesday to protest the killings as the Taliban threatened to behead "Americans anywhere in the country."

An American sergeant is suspected of shooting nine children, three women and four men in two villages near his combat outpost in southern Afghanistan on Sunday.

Fuck, fuck, fuuuuuck!

A liberal soldier. Are you ready?

If you have not served...fuck off....period.

You do not know the culture of the Army. You do not know whether that cat had proper debriefing or not.

He obviously has PTSD. An excuse?

FUCK YOU!

One reason why I love our system. Otherwise you would be hunted down, and I would say, FOLLOW ME!

We do NOT know what that troop faced. But he will face the UCMJ, which is FAR more harsh than what the civies could consider.

He fucked up, and he will face the the justice, FROM A JURY OF HIS PEERS.

If you are not his PEER, then what you have to say means NOTHING.
