War protesters are the same as condo cranks

I want the oil fields and the oil routes of the Persian Gulf kept secure, and I want the Islamofascists defeated. I almost don't care how long it takes or what it costs. I know that if the Islamic terrorists win, they will take over the oil and have the rest of the world by the throat. If they win, they will gain access to nuclear weapons, and the same people who cut people's heads off and train little children to become suicide bombers will not hesitate to use these weapons.

I also know that America has the resources and the ability to defeat this menace if the country comes together. As far as it being Bush's war, any American president, facing the aftermath of 9/11 and the intelligence estimates he was given (the CIA's "slam dunk" appraisal for the need to attack) would have done the same thing.

Things have not gone as we had hoped in Iraq. The Democrats who think Bush should be impeached should grow up.

I manage the condominium complex where I live. I have learned that very few people try to help out, and there are always some who whine and complain about everything the rest of us try to do to preserve and protect our homes. These people are cranks: They don't want any responsibility and they don't want any work. They are just jealous of people who step up, and it makes them feel better about themselves to pick apart what others try to do. The Democrats are like these condo cranks.

President Bush stepped up and protected us here at home, and he may have saved western civilization.

We may need to make changes about how our troops are deployed, but they should stay until the job is done.
