A message to Barack Obama.

Army Spc. Joe Cook

Good for him!

So when are we invading Africa to stop the genocide there to save the world?

I am former military, and respect those that serve and think both parties don't do enough for vets, but his vote is the same as mine and the guy that didn't serve next door....and the celebrity that whores him/herself out for the dems/republicans.

If we want to be rightous, we are a little late in Africa.

If I was serving in the armed forces I wouldn't want to serve under a commanding officer who wants to cut funding the armed services, claims the surge didn't work when it obviously did, pull out without a victory and trashes the military with comments like we are "airraiding innocent people".

And although he gets no credit for it because the liberals have been taught to hate him by the left leaning media, President Bush has tripled aid to Africa.

He launched a $1.2 billion malaria initiative in June 2005 with the goal of reducing malaria-related deaths in 15 African countries by 50 percent. The disease kills more than 1 million people a year, most of them African children under age 5.

At home he's helped pave the way for a viable African American candidate like Barack Obama to run for president by appointing 2 African Americans to the most powerful cabinet position of secretary of State, Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice, something that his predecessor, Bill Clinton, (the first black president), failed to do.

Aid to Africa

Thats all well and good on the aid, but why didn't we just send money to people in Iraq if thats the effective way to do it?

The reason that doesn't gain traction is because you know its taken out of context, and I know since I watched when it was said

Please try to deny that their isn't a double standard to our morality.

Tony: In case you hadn't heard there is an enormous oil supply in Iraq that is crucial to our very existence and needs to be protected from our enemies that would seize it to bring us down. In reality we can't fight everyone's battles.

In case you havent heard, that was a rhetorical question, because people try to act holy and like we just are there for the greater good of mankind....instead of ourkind.


So had to call him on his bull.
