Yabbut, what the hell does your Aunt Martha know about it, except from some poll SHE read?
are a bunch of liars. The only reason we're in Iraq is because of his Daddy (who kicked SH's ass before).
So, now that we're there and Saddam ain't, what should we do?
See, I wanna pull out cuz GWB is a liar but what I can't get outta my mind is Mom and Pop Lunchbucket Iraq. He's the guy who lived in fear all these years of the knock on the door that this time it would be HIS head being used as a soccerball in Saddam Stadium, or maybe his kids...Or of being executed for having a TV.
He's the guy who's gonna continue to live in squalor and fear still more when we leave and the power vacuum is switched on and the REAL killing begins.
I remember Rawanda...I remember the rivers turned red by blood and the bodies, too many to count. 1/2 million some say. Good thing we had the first black president then...We should stay out of civil wars except our own IMO.
Hell, Iraquis have a tradition of peaceful handoffs of power, don't they? Do they have chads in Iraq?
I wish all things in life were this easy..
Good post, BK.
Each day, the news informs us us of new horrors in Iraq. Although I was just a young kid in the early 70's, I thought that Vietnam and Watergate were supposed to have taught us that our government lies, and that we should be skeptical of its claims. I guess Pete was wrong when he wrote, and Roger sang, "we won't get fooled again."
