I don't have anything but respect for our soldiers. I also believe we were justified going into Iraq after they invaded Kuwait. I don't believe Shock and Awe was justified. Bush II and his cronies squandered our economic surplus we had under Clinton and ran up our current deficits. I miss the days of $0.87/gallon gasoline and a balanced budget.

Now we are in a civil war Republicans vs Democrats. Republicans vs unions. Republicans and Democrats vs public workers. Right wing conservatives vs moderates. Non-union workers vs union workers. Politicians vs the middle class. The rich vs the lower class. This war is playing out in the capitol of Wisconsin right now. Its not the workers fault the economy is in the tank. The seeds of our economic depression were planted in waging a war against Iraq over WMD that was based on false intelligence. We are paying the price for Bush's and Blair's arrogance.
