The war ON Iraq is a result of arrogance and ignorance. Period. Move on. Forget about it. Get your foreign bank-owned credit card out of your obese back pocket; get in your fossil fuel wasting, carbon spewing whatever-mobile and go Christmas shopping for over priced gifts sold by wealthy corporations and made by enslaved, impoverished children.

i meant to say if we pull out now. we should stay as long as it needs. we havent had to pay more taxes because of it, we havent had to reduce the amount of supplies we use, so what are we giving up. are we sacraficing any of our personal security.

Are you for real - look at your state and local taxes and tell me you're not paying more taxes - look at our debt to China and tell me you won't be paying more taxes federally - probably real soon, cuz there won't be a choice. Iraq is about oil period - natural resources are the cause of war using religion as the weapon to rouse the massesl. Remember Bush and his quote "..Holy War..." He's still trying to get people scared and make U.S. citizens feel threatened and scared - we should all be scared to death of him and the remaing months he has in office - leaving Iraq right now - will not result in thousands dying - most likely thousands more living. Of course, through our "invasion" - we have opened up Iraq to terrorists......we don't make much difference now - one way or the other.

The main reason we're there is so the terrorists will attack us there instead of here. It keeps the death to the middle east.
If it was for oil, the the price would be down and people would love him.

You people suck!How many of you are actually doing something to help? Or are you all sitting back waiting for the military to make sure your butts are covered.Would you enjoyed it more if we were under attack daily and you couldn't go to Walmart? Does it matter where we are fighting as long as it isn't in your backyard? We are helping another country get liberated from a dictatorship. Any other President would have put us where we are...it isn't just GW.

Yes but we aren't at war with China. Our troops aren't in China. So what's your point?

your government was stolen long ago. Before many of you were born.

What we have now is the illusion of democracy. You get to vote, and you get to think your vote matters.

Now you get to think what you think about Iraq matters.

And later you will get to think what you think about Iran matters.

But in all truth what you think matters about as much as, well, you. And thats not very much at all.

Live with it.
