Here is a solution, stop using our troops as pawns trying to nation build these 3rd world sh1tholes. Well that might have been a solution but expect 4 more years of constant war and more suicides because Obama or Romney isn't going to change a damn thing.

These are hero's protecting us from the marauding Afghan armies at the gates of America.  Iran is next, so don't expect this trend to change.  And the sad part is Americans could care less.  

The anti-war left went awfully quiet after winning the Presidential election.  Dead soldiers under the command of a Democrat commander and chief are more justifiable than under a Republican.  

Keep on pledging allegiance sheep.  There will be a day of reckoning - history tell us there always is.
