Time to end The War

Ok, I give up.

We've spent literally hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayer money. That money could have been used in better ways.

We've lost tens out thousands of lives. How can we continue a "war" when so many are killed every day?

We've ruined and destroyed countless families. This has to stop.

And we're losing. We are no closer to victory in the war than we were at the beginning. For every battle we win, we lose 10 others. We're losing the war, but our leaders simply cannot see it.

I give up. The war has to stop. The war should end now.

Of course, I'm speaking of the "war" on drugs.

3 Ogre, you must remember one thing. A post like this could give some of your conservative readers a stroke, or worse.

Allthough, it could also cause some liberals' heads to explode, and therefore I guess it balances out, right?

4 I am not, despite what the liberals/left/Democrats/media desire, responsible for other's reactions or feelings.

5 Nah, don't end it. Take the muzzle off of the military and Law Enforcement to do their jobs properly and then see what happens.

6 We have all-out war with Columbia and the rest of South and Central America?

7 Don't forget about the War On Poverty. Libs started that back under LBJ. QUAGMIRE!

8 Teach, you've gone and spoiled my post for today!

I thought about doing that one, too, but the numbers of deaths is a lot harder to track for that "war."

10 Before reading the last line...however, due to my irregularity of late, it was a relief

11 Good to know -- that was indeed the intent.
