“I am a daughter of an [Afghan] refugee, and my taxpayer dollars are being used to kill my family.  The media is playing this [Afghanistan war] as a “good war” and that it is helping to liberate Afghan women. Bombing Afghanistan into oblivion is not going to help these women.  NATO occupation out of Afghanistan!”

“The Tea Party got the memo.  We didn’t.  How can 15% of the public opinion shape the nation’s political landscape?  What about [the rest] of us?”
