There is a show on Lifetime, right after Army Wives that just screams that we have been at war too long.
The show is a reality show called “Coming Home.” It is a series that shows all sorts of surprise homecomings for families with a family member overseas in very public places.
There is something about a reality show based on that kind of raw emotion that just isn’t right. Tonight featured a father dressed up as the mascot horse. He comes out and surprises his daughter. There is something wrong when this becomes reality. Time to stop the wars. enough is enough. Something touching just became very vulgar and I can’t even say why.
I’ve said before that President Bush was correct when he appeared on the aircraft carrier under the banner that declared “mission accomplished.” We cleaned al Queada out of Afghanistan and ensured that Sadam had no WMD. We should have come home from the wars, and banished the neo-cons and nation builders a long time ago.
Agreed, except we never should have been in Iraq and it is good that President Obama has ended that war successfully. Now we need to exit Afghanistan asap.
