    I am probably just older than you but this hit me big in 2004. I was like “oh… you want more of this? What the fuck…”

        it sad, it convinced so many people to join the military, people that are down in thier luck, especially when the08 crisis hit, even more tried to join as cannon fodder.

        I was so disgusted by the Iraq invasion as a response to 9/11 that I felt sure the patriotic thing to do was get Halliburton out of the White House. But they managed to scare up all that WMD noise and then they invented “swift boating.” All this after they literally stole the 2000 election.

        I know what you mean though. And it was all extremely stupid. Hillary helped, which is why I never supported her.
