Bring up whatever subject you wish in any thread. This is a thread about Obama expanding the war - which he is doing. When you decided to make it a thread about illegal immigrants [[post #195) I addressed your diversion.
Now, in post # 195, you want Kucinich to be the topic instead of Obama widening the war. So I'll play along and address Kucinich too: I think that Rep. Kucinich is a rare Congressman who is not beholden to corporate and military interests. He often bucks the larger status quo element of his own Party. In the link I submited, he rails against the Bush/Obama policy in Afghanistan. I have a lot of respect for Rep. Kucinich and admire his lovely wife. However, I disagree with him on some major economic and Constitutional issues. One of them is his acceptance of a huge underclass of illegal foreign workers who make it impossible because of the labor supply/demand disruption for American workers to demand higher wages thereby allowing the elites to make off with a larger share of national wealth.
OK, I've addressed Kucinich, illegal immigration, and whether Afghanistan is in the Middle-east or Asia. Now it's your turn. Please expand upon your reasons about why you think it's such a good idea for Obama to be expanding the war[[s) in the Middle-east and/or Asia [[your diversion from post # 183). So far, your only comments found on this thread regarding the Afghanistan war were [[post #176), " There are good arguments for staying in A-stan for a bit longer, there are good arguments for getting out. Personally, I'd like everyone to come home tomorrow, except there's one little problem: Where are all those people going to work? "" And from post # 179 " that Barack Obama did not promise to disengage from all wars, from the start he stated that the case that Afghanistan was a valid war."
