People are using this issue to garner votes. I have no idea what to do about iraq because I feel like all the people in charge don't care about it so much as they care about making their opponents look bad.<BR/><BR/>that's why I think it's lame.<BR/><BR/>And yes, I know I sound disaffected and frustrated...

The question of how to deal with the threat (let alone defining what the threat is) is a political question, to be settled in the public arena. <BR/><BR/>I imagine that your notion of what constitutes a "logical end" in Iraq is vastly different than mine. Which is fine - let us have the debate, and then support the political candidates which best represent our varying points of view. I wouldn't have it any other way...Garryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15501085297163581710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20272978.post-1155702005564660742006-08-16T00:20:00.000-04:002006-08-16T00:20:00.000-04:00Good post...I get so frustrated when political mud...Good post...<BR/>I get so frustrated when political mudslinging invovles real issues... where people try to skew the truth to make themselves seem more right. Especially when it's an issue as important as this one, and one that will affect america's future so much. So what's more important? Working toward a logical end to the war in Iraq and a lessening of the terrorist threat, or using the "war on terrorism" and various stances on it as a platform for a political party?<BR/><BR/>lame, lame.<BR/><BR/>I just hope we (liberals) don't retaliate in kind... I'm kinda getting tired of this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00466860937596192472noreply@blogger.com
