Well thank God 'the war on terror is over.' :confused:

Now if only we could stop our citizens from making anti-muslim video shorts.

It's just too bad extremist Muslims aren't more like extremist Mormons and just not watch the flick/play.

Go figure, the video gets condemned and the play wins almost a dozen Tony's.

War on terror... Such a catchy name for a multi trillion dollar unmitigated failure. Over? GWB claimed it was over about 10 years ago. Over, you have a better chance of waging a war on cockroaches. Soviet Union went broke fighting in Afghanistan... Good thing we learned from their lesson. What actually would define "Winning" ?

I think war on Extremist Islam was not considered PC.

Let's in the future start only wars we can win like Nancy Reagan's War on Drugs and the current War on Obesity courtesy of Michele Obama. ;)

How about war on Patriots and the Tea Party? We could surely take them.

Got to love how resound this President is in his decisions. Damn it when he's paints a red line he means it. As long as it's not crossed.

Absolutely did not answer my question and you go off on a tangent absolutely unrelated to the topic.

What Defines "Victory" ? Continuing down this path could be throwing away Trillions more and can't even define when you "Win". :zz:

Are you still working on the reply to "What defines victory on the "War on terror"? I guess I am the only one getting sick of my money making Billionaires out of Defense contractors and millionaires out of our "represenatives" who

1. Know where the contracts are going and are legally allowed to trade that info
2. "Retire" with a nice pension from thier government positions to accept positions from the same folks they steered contracts to.

But keep blaming my grandma getting her Social Security and those getting assistance like it is 1981 and jobs are plentiful and companies actually cared for thier employees and the future of the country.

Ty but the funny thing is that I agree that we should aggresively persue and punish fraud in our entitllement systems. But me being me that would include those getting goverment pensions, steering work to contractors and then going to work for those contractors.

exactly! another thing i can't stand is double dipping. where a govt worker 'retires' for 30 days, and then is re-hired, thus receiving both pension and salary.
