We helped the Afghan people drive the Soviets out of their country by providing arms, supplies and money. These items were smuggled into Afghanistan through Pakistan.

Our country has an identity crisis going on that few seem inclined to deal with. We cannot seem to learn from past mistakes. We treat other countries in ways we wouldn't tolerate ourselves. We prosecute individuals for things we allow corporations and Government officials to do. We allow more laws governing personal behavior than we do those for corporations and Government entities.
We just can't seem to learn.

Politicians are the only people in the world who create big problems and later campaign against them. Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats & Republicans are against deficits, we have deficits ?. Have you ever wonderered why, if all politicians are against INFLATION and high taxes, we have INFLATION and HIGH TAXES, 435 members of our U.S. Congress are directly, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague the U.S.A. now. GOD BLESS AMERICA.
