What big government and big military are we at war with? If you meant us, big
government is not defined by how big our military is, but by beauracracy,
regulation and entitlement.So, you do want the Taliban restored in Afghanistan
along with all that it intails. What oil and pipeline in Afghanistan? I believe
there might have been a pipeline proposed at one time, but it was only *thru*
Afghanistan, not *out of* Afghanistan. Yes, war can be a racket , people can
profit from it, but so can Global warming or poverty be a racket. Bhairitu,
your comparison of the *religious right* to the Taliban is laughable and shows
how out of touch you are with reality. If you had to choose one to live under,
American religious right or the Taliban, you would choose the Taliban? Just
what is it about the *religious right* that you find so objectionable?
Certainly you don't hate them more than the Taliban because of their stance on
abortion, since the Taliban would be
against it also. Maybe it's the setting of higher moral standards, like
personal reponsability, that you may not feel comfortable with.

So Mike as a true conservative you like to spend your tax dollars in
foreign countries with big military and big government? Aren't you a
little confused? I thought conservatives were opposed to big government
and over taxation?
Yes, there are problems in Afghanistan but we're not there to solve
them. We're there for the oil and it's pipeline. You gotta keep up.
Our lard brained energy company types are licking their chops to get a
hold on those resources.
Likewise we weren't in Vietnam to decide their civil war either. We
were there for THEIR resources. Don't you remember "The Pentagon Papers"?
Remember, war is a racket.
There'll be no Sharia Law in the US nor Taliban either. We have our own
version of the Taliban called the "religious right." But unlike the US
other countries will not be sticking their nose into the second civil
war that is about to erupt and last for decades in this country.
