Stupid politicians

I just had to rant about this. So I was listening to the news today on the radio when it came to a bit about the war in Afghanistan. Jack Leighton the leader of the federal new democratic party made a comment on how Canadian soldiers should be pulled out of combat operations and put into peace building operations. Is he an idiot. Does he not realize that soldiers train for combat. That's their job buddy. They aren't diplomats who are supposed to "build peace". I just had to rant about his stupidity and how he wants Canada to run away now that the going has gotten tough.
