14. Idiot Boebert supports perpetual war...

We were in Vietnam for 11 years, likely longer, but officially from 1964 to 1975. We lost 54,000 men and women, with millions of Vietnamese dead. For what? We left and within a year, Vietnam was united under Communist rule, but unlike the stupid Domino hypothesis, Communism did not take over all of Asia and end up on our doorstep. In fact the Communist government of Vietnam invaded the Communist country of Cambodia to depose Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge and drove them out of power.

We have been in Afghanistan for almost 20 years and lost 2,400 men and women with over 20,000 casualties, for what? Minerals? A gas pipeline? We routed the Taliban within a few weeks of the invasion and ostensibly held control of the country. We had Bin Laden, the reason we were supposedly there, hiding like a rat in a cave, until Bush Jr. got bored and let him flee into Pakistan. President Obama and VP Biden tracked down and killed Bin Laden but we stayed, and stayed, with no real purpose except propping up a government that was never really interested in defending itself.

Boebert is what happens when people grow up watching Fox News and listening to right wing radio. They know absolutely nothing about history and only know to spew right wing stupidity.
