The same swine who started the war in Afghanistan now refuse to speak of it

The same warpigs and giant monster fascist slime who are backing willard for president, the same assholes who wrote his speech, word for word, deliberately didn't mention the troops. Why?

They started this war on monstrous lies, like it was the most important thing in the world to get even for New York City, to wreak unholy hell and vengeance on our perceived terrorist enemies, to get the most evil man in the world at whatever the cost, no matter how many thousands of innocent people were tortured or killed and now....they don't even mention ANY of it in the speech they wrote for mitt.

We all remember the jingoistic saber rattling and constant t.v. propaganda about fear, and security, and democracy, and freedom, and bla bla bla till we were all sick to death hearing about it.

Then Abu Graib Prison photos were accidentally released to the world, and it all started going very badly and the masturbatory flag waving faded away, and the war was and still is hidden from the tv, hidden from the front pages, the mission was declared accomplished, the perpetrator utterly forgotten, the search for him abandoned.

All those dead American men and women, all those dead men women and children in Afghanistan, and all these years later, it still goes on, unbeknownst to the average American, in total darkness apparently, it goes on yet isn't mentioned by the very people that started it all those years ago in the acceptance speech of the man they want to force on all of us whether we like him or not, and if he gets the White House, they plan MORE FUCKING WARS.

Real wars, not like their list of undeclared wars on women, homosexuals, education, Planned Parenthood, the poor, the sick, science and progress, but real, horrible, bloody wars like the one they started with such vigor and purpose, but why? Why?

Why did all these people have to die under the bush/cheney administration? Why are they still dying? The worst of all possible answers is nothing more than money. Money. Not democracy, not freedom, not security, not patriotism, not anything noble or lofty or useful, for some fucking money, they just don't have enough, and they just don't give a fuck how many people have to die or starve to get them just a little bit more money.

mitt romney can smirk and giggle and guffaw when speaking about awful things like war but every time he does he looks and sounds just like the fucker who started it all, and he's backed by the very same pricks and ghouls and billionaires and warpigs who now refuse to even talk about President Obama capturing and killing the man they said was public enemy number one, and then never mentioned Bin Laden's name again. Just like they never mentioned the troops over there fighting and dying for all these years.

So grab a rifle and get your ass to Afghanistan mitt or shut the fuck up about the 'military'.

War is a racket.
Always has been, always will be.
It's what our country manufactures these days.
War and entertainment.
War as entertainment.
As long as we give the super-rich even a modicum of control, this will be the case.
The only way to stop it, is to Marie Antoinette them all, and have a government of, by and for the middle class.

But that ain't gonna happen...

Spouses and offspring into the war zones, they might re-think the cost of their greed.

....going back to the beginning of the modern romney family, then we should ALL get deferments. No romney has ever served in the U.S. military, and then he totally fails to even mention our troops.

If he DID mention the troops, he knows he would be called a hypocrite, exactly because "no romney has ever served in the U.S. military." Better to just keep his mouth shut?
