Things in America have just gotten creepy. Perhaps they should change our country's name. America just doesn't have the same pep. It doesn't evoke the same emotions.
I hate the fact that we are at war. Personally, I am not a big fan of our hands-on global policy. However, I don't see America as a country that would just walk out. We've invested so many millions of dollars here. We fought for a point that we can't prove. America fought to prove it can save everybody, and it failed.
There was a time when we fought evil, once.
My view of America, and America's interaction with its people has changed. I see America as I saw my parents in the twilight of my childhood. Until my late teens, my parents could do no wrong, and they never had in the past. As I grew into a young man, I learned that idea was wrong; but worst of all, my parents wouldn't own-up to the idea that they had made mistakes. America will never see this situation as it is, a mistake.
I understand there is always a threat of war. I understand that there will someday be a World War III. I also understand the necessity of a militarized stronghold in the Middle East.
Since World War II we have made mistake after mistake in the Middle East. We have allow to many children to grow up war-torn. War-torn children grow up to be strong warriors. And now, we're all around fucked.
I no nothing of the battles that take place in Iraq. I don't even know if there are anything more than ambushes. However, I do know that it is costing a lot of money. Money that could be spent elsewhere.
Essentially, the way America spends and earns money needs to drastically change... But it won't.
John McCain will be president. Or Obama will mutate into McCain.
