Apparently a recent poll found that 51% of respondents now found the Iraq war to have been a bad idea, or something along those lines. I believe it was flawed as there were only one hundred people involved, fifty-one Americans, and fourty-nine Klaktoons from the Vorbulon Nebula, where Iraq is the name of a famous movie star and the term 'war' is a synonym for sex.
Who the hell are these people that think that Iraq was a good idea, and continues to be a good idea? Is the continuously escalating violence not a clue? How about the recently leaked CIA reports? How about the abandoned State Department reports? How about the generals who have come back from Iraq saying that it's a political quagmire? Or the generals who didn't think we were sending enough troops in the first place? What will it take to convince these people that the war is a bad idea? The draft. Be careful what you wish for. Four more years of Bush most likely means sending our 18-22 year old males to fight and die in this debacle.
More voting nonsense: Turns out Ohio is screwed up too. Lots of people want to vote but the government won't let them because the paper they registered on wasn't thick enough. The Republicans are turning our country into a banana republic. Actually that's wrong since Carter's group cited several banana republics that have fair voting procedures, unlike Florida.
