If the US does not help people in need; who will??? 
Saldam was using Chemical weapon on his people.  Some
country needed to go in there and clean that mess up. 
We went in to Somila for a whole lot less of a reason.
 It's not making them our mold.  Remember, they wrote
thier own Constituation.  Women now have the right to
vote.  Girl are being allowed to go to school. 
Surely, these things are something that the liberals
see are a good thing.  I know there is no way to
change the liberal way of thinking.  Like the old
saying goes; give a man a fish-feed him for a day;
teach him to fish-feed him for life.  The bad thing
about this country, to many people are standing in
line all day waiting on someone to give them a fish. 
What we are doing in Irag is teaching them to fish.  I
know that the liberal way of thinking will never agree
to this.  But people need to stop thinking about
themselves & realize all the good we are doing for
them.  Yes solider are dieing-It's a war.  BUT THE
GOOD, OUTWEIGHTS THE BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
