Hey I'm just glad this most controversial, dividing President is gone forever. 1st term ruined the country, 2nd term ruined the world. Yup it's time for change. I'm not anti republican just anti Bush.
well... its where we WERE to begin with. we went to afghanistan soon after 9/11/2001 and Iraq in March of 2003.

Yes and should have kept our strength there instead of diverting the bulk of our troops, supplies and weapons to Iraq. Have you seen the NBC, I think, documentary, on what goes on with our poor troops in Afghanistan...their weapons don't even work properly...sad.

Long road for whomever was elected but at least it's change, and a generational change, it was time.

So they're in the motorcade for 2+ hours after a big lunch. I wonder if there's a bathroom in that car. Two adults and two kids...seems like someone would need to go.

They made a bad movie based on the book called Windtalkers. As is usually the case, the book was tons better than the flick.
