VP Debate by janet nolan

One statement that truly hit home for me was about the "2014" act. I completely agree with Paul Ryan that our main goal is to leave in 2014 ,but we should still help and give our commanders and generals the supplies they needs and help the Afghan government and their people. To show them the right way to live and in force it. Meaning that if we leave immediately that all the work and the  solders lives that were sacrifice would be a waste. But vice president Biden believes that we should leave as soon as possibly its like he has given up and truly doesn't care. One thing that bug me so much about Biden is that he laughed half the debate it made it seem like he did that because he couldn't give and intelligent answers back, I felt it was extremely disrespectful. He made jab at Ryan such as "my friend here" I mean come on we know your not friends and it was just annoying. I come from a small town and almost everyone dad, son, nephew, brother ,husband etc is a firefighter. On 9/11 our firefighters went to the world trade center and only a few survived. After that my small town once again crushed because of a plane crash in our town on Nov.12 2001. After these plane crashes many of my friends and family went in to the army many were lost and many are still there. I wish they never left but I know its for the greater good to defend what happen to the U.S to New York and Belle Harbor Rockaway. We are so close and that why we need to continue the good and not lose the grounds we have gained. Also one thing that I disagreed with that Biden said was it took six day for the Obama and Biden administration to say the attack in Libya was a terrorist attack. The ambassadors ask for more security and what did they get in return? The security was actually downsize even though they express fear for their lives. But other wise I thought the debate was good and both parties had good points.
