I believe i have suggested something in the last paragraph of my last post...and thats about as realistic as I can get for the problem at hand.

Again, I say so Bush is gone, then the next lucky Moneygrubber we will call a President will take office and face this same problem what do we do?

As far as Clinton goes what exactly were we in Somalia getting our asses kicked because we only gave our Soldiers 1 magazine of ammo to fight a battle...but thats an "in the past" discussion I get told....well I agree what Bush has said and done is in the past, he will NOT be President next term.....sooooo the question remains for the next President as he will be faced with this question, what do we do?? Realistically.

Ideas?

And I'm not atrying to sound shrewd or like an ass when I say this...Ask any economist, the best way to revive an economy is to start a war, its a VERY sad but true point, the problem is that when you start a war there is soo much at stake as far as your own countrymen...And I don't wanna get into the conspiracy theories as they don't change anything or supply a "realistic" option for ending this....What can the other political party provide for this country besides just pointing fingers and NOT following them fingers with options, as after the next elections its going to be time for them to step up to the plate I feel, and Lord help us all if it doesn't turn out good after the next guy takes office...

again I ask ideas?

after re-reading ITHs' first post again, the question of Democrats AND Republicans, The war is a very serious issue and running point of this next election, so what is either party going to do to win my vote besides the hatemongering that is going on from the democratic side....what is their running points...I beg either side of the Political system to win my vote...Sen. Clinton has openly admitted that she has no idea what to do about it, and like her I agree thats its crap that Bush passes this along to the next President.

Khaoz I totally understand where your coming from as those of you that have children and every decision you make affects them in every way for the future.

I just want to know for either party what they are going to do about:
1. The war
2. The well being of this country.
3. Healthcare, it sucks to be honest, I have insurance but for those that don't I can't imagine how they make if they don't get government assistance. i.e. the elderly that can't afford their meds that medicare won't pay for.
4. Schooling, I think I read somewhere that we are almost the dumbest country as far as graduating classes around the world in the last 15-20 years.
5. Border security.
6. And for God's sake STOP using Social Security to make the deficit look better, if thats even possible to make it look good.


You could prolly swap 3 and 4 around but either way they both need to be addressed

I don't know what type of incentive we could give a country that didn't ask for our help, heh. That's like my mom telling me I get a new car if I <whatever here>. I'm not gonna care, man. They've already fucked with me enough I want no part in their games. That's pretty much how I see Iraq. They didn't ask for help or imply it. Someone else comes in and forces help on them.. how would you like that? They mess up and say "Well, if you can fix my messup yourself, I'll give you a treat." my reponse, "........................... yeah right."

Like you said, I don't mean to beat down on people (other than those responsible) but currently I'm having trouble seeing this turn positive. I'd like to see responsibility take place and move on with a clean slate for the next president (ie. not someone who supported bush or really bashed him either). I guess all we can *really* do is protest and look at future canidates. but i don't see Bush getting any kinda "nice" treatment from anyone once he's out of office.

I hope that explains my point of view a little closer. I certainly gained in perspective to yours.
