The Republican Change

Politics  make a decision 2012  Opinion  Strategy
 By Robert G for mychiller news
As the 2012 election campaign has pretty much started it surprises me to find a different Republican Party from before. Back in 2008 they were defending the Iraq war much like in 2004 . War-hawk , John McCain became  the nominee for his party in 2008. President Obama when he was still a candidate was being the "anti-bush" man he wanted to make sure you associated John McCain with Former President Bush. He said he was going to close "Gitmo" but it's still open. He said he was going to end the Iraq war , there are still American troops there, he also expanded how many are in Afghanistan and now involved in Libya.  Republicans in congress and the candidates are now  saying get out of Libya and the other places because it costs too much. A change has been made alright. Sunday, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) was fearing his party is become an isolationist party, sounds like 1900's there. I think that is a good move all these going into conflicts doesn't help the United States in the long run .
   We don't need to be trying to help rebels in Libya who we still don't who they are  and draining money that we can't spend right now. I like this new change in the GOP the party needed to embrace the idea we are not the world's savior and cops. The deficit that made larger by Mr.Bush was pretty much ignored until President Obama decided to make it larger, that wrong of both parties to that. If there is  a Democrat who did not support the Iraq war but does support U.S involvement in LIbya  that means you are supporting it only by your party and not by your own convictions.  Wars are costly and  it's only needed when we need to defend ourselves and Libya has not threatened us.
