Re: Afghanistan Combat Ops to end by 2013
I don't think Obama has done as bad a job as George W. did in office, but it's really annoying when people go out of their way to praise him or hate on him.

Amen. I think you and I have the same view on politics (at least that's what I remember). I get SO TIRED of people from the extremes of both sides thinking that "their guy/girl" are going to fix things.

Not sure if the same view or not, but I generally think both sides of politics are stuck in a never ending war that is only hurting the people in the end. And yes, fanatics from both sides annoy me.
