[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 621292, member: 2189"] I love atheists but I just wish I'd have thought of [URL='http://eternal-earthbound-pets.com/'][COLOR=red]this[/COLOR][/URL] before they did! :happy-very: Dear Mr. President, I would be remiss to not offer congrats on your peace prize but it's very fact leaves me puzzled and troubled at the same time. My trouble is the fact that over the course of time since taking office, by your hand of directive and orders, hundreds of innocent civilians have been killed as a result of [URL='https://web.archive.org/web/20091022132834/http://www.newamerica.net/publications/policy/revenge_drones'][COLOR=red]these drone strikes[/COLOR][/URL]. As a ratio to dead bad guys, we're talking in the 10's to 1 at the very least of civilians killed to 1 bad guy and yet you seemed unfazed by this. Sir, I'd like to remind you that in 1968', a Lt. Calley was responsible for the [URL='http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/mylai/Myl_intro.html'][COLOR=red]deaths of 500[/COLOR] [/URL]and it was your office under a previous commander in chief who lead the way of Calley be held responsible for these crimes. If we believe in the principle of "equal justice for all" as history tells of the horrors of Calley's hands, what sir will they say of yours? Your recent position on medical marijuana was a welcomed sight and although it seemed with gator arms, your initial reaching out to talk with Iran was also a great step. However, your contnued policies across the greater Middle East leave me sad and in fact has former VP Cheney crowing that your present course is nothing more than what Bush planned in the closing days of his adminstration. I'm hard pressed to disagree at this point as much as I'd like not too. Mr. President, whether you earned that prize or it was noble jesture in encourage you, the 2 main things you told the American people was that there would be "change" as well as "transparency" but in regards to change and your Middle East policy, I'll close by quoting producer Micheal Moore commenting on your peace prize. "Congrats Mr. President, now earn it!" [/QUOTE]
