The path to hell truly is lined with good intentions. Then the politics start.....dems claimed Bush went into Iraq for oil or to get Cheney rich and republicans would claim Obama went into Syria looking for a political victory (the country rallies behind a war time president, especially a new war, with "good intentions")....and through it all...American soldiers keep dying. The world is full of bad people who like to kill each other. America can't change that, and I'm sick of trying. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:352324 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
