WHAT???? Another War?

I am totally shocked that President Obama is leading us into another war.  Not only will we lose more young men and women but this is nothing short of an invitation to terrorists to try and take their vengeance out on this country.  We do not need to be the caretaker of every country in the world.  I thought President Obama was opposed to the War in Iraq.  I think we have been misled and I for one do not appreciate it.  I thought he was a peace loving man and not a warmonger.
We are spending billions of dollars a week in Afghanistan and who knows how much to keep troops in Iraq.  The cessation of these two wars could help repair the deficit and avoid the horrendous cuts that the Republicans are making.  So how can we afford to take on more?
I know that the President has said that he will not ask Congress for more money but obviously the money has to come from somewhere.  Now we have lost an aircraft and how much will it cost to replace it?  Thank God the two crew members have been rescued.
I hope everyone will write to the White House and express their anger and disappointment as I have.
