The War is Over Now

 Today is the day our fair country, the U.S.A., makes it's final and much anticipated exit from a twenty year war.  I was in high school when we first invaded, and now - a whole 20 years later - we finally say,

"You know what?  Screw You Guys, We're Going Home."

I think it's quite a, what do they call it, 'grim milestone'.  It's a painful time for our great republic's history, and the wounds of war are all too real.  There are things that have happened in this war that Time cannot erase.  The number of servicemen and servicewomen injured or killed by Islamic Fundamentalism over there in the cradle of civilization is too numerous to imagine....

Let's pray they find their way home.

I'm not sure how the leftinista cabal of commie spies feel about this - to be frank, they're probably too busy hiding in a hole to even notice an historical time such as this.  I was astounded to see, in a limited way, that many leftists are completely oblivious to what's going on in the middle east...

They seem to have an attitude of,

"Who cares?  Let them kill each other."

That's a direct quote from a operative I'm familiar with.  

"Let them kill each other"

I have no idea why the left (and the right for that matter) seems so oblivious to our present age's historicity,

but to be honest,

it's sad.

Not in a crying emo way,

but sad as in pathetic...

I think all of us of the 9/11 generation have been right there with them the whole time.

Why?

Because the republican party cares.

We feel for and suffer with our servicemen and women,

and while we may be civilians who have never truly served like the innumerable elect in Arlington,

I think we all are together in these times...

So here's to the quasi-end of our military occupation of the middle east.

Let's hope we don't have to repeat history!

That type of apathy is less than human.  It strikes me as zombie-like.
