There are wars going on and people are dying and resources are wasted and your beloved Obama is expanding these wars.
Are you in a trance or something?? Are you aware of your surroundings and know which day of the week today is??!!

To a lot of the individuals that actually pay attention to what’s going on; Obama is a supreme disappointment!  I guess that we didn’t really have a choice which is even more disappointing.  Apparently, it’s really true that the military industrial complex has taken over this country. 

I thought GWB was bad, but at least he didn’t hide his war crimes.  Obama calling our attack on Afganistan “the good war” demonstrates he’s just another polician. I guess none of those who are supposed to represent us actually give a damn.

Hi Virginia 777,

Its like this:

The war is B-A-D and has to be STOPPED.

Countless people are dying for NO REASON.

Hope this helps and I hope all of these pesky reminders do not inconvenience you too much…

Can’t fit the number of holes for both military and civilians in one b i g   p i c t u r e or cartoon.
And US military (and contractors) are not out of Iraq, and growing in Pakistan (drones, drones, drones), ...add Africom, Colombia….add your own to the list…(am “out of steam” but you get the picture).

Humanity’s Bigger Holes:

A)Liberalism, as in intellectualism, doesn’t appeal to the dumb-downed masses that prefer ignorance and delusion to truth and selfish short-term motives. They are, hopelessly, in subjective bondage to the Big Lies in this orwellian Twilight Zone.

B)The Fact of LI(F)E w/re: swine flu

On a macro-level, scientifically, the swine flu epidemic is a prime example of bacteria(human) infestation on a host(the earth). The pollution of human and their created material waste on this living earth are evidence of this disease. And generations of their children after them, unfortunately, will suffer by this custom(life is a terminal disease).
