It's just perspective

By now everybody knows that the justification for going to war against Iraq and occupying the country indefinitely was based on a pack of lies. For most of the US population, the big question since accepting this truth is "when can our troops come home?"

Your plan or opinion on that question will have received a wildly different response from the Republicans based on who you are. When anyone perceived as liberal or Democratic-leaning voiced support for letting Iraqis rule Iraq and redeploying our troops to fight terrorists, the GOP labeled them as un-American "cut and run" defeatists who want terrorists to destroy America instead of gloriously achieving victory.

Of course, now that the obvious path of ending the US occupation is underway, those same "you hate America" shouters are claiming victory by finally following that exact same path.

Yet one more reason we need change in Washington D.C.

  • It is clear that Mccain is the Manchurian candidate being operated by the North Vietnamese. Why did he avoid release from captivity? Because of the treatment they were giving him during captivty after he snapped. He liked it... the North Vietnamese own him. Beware, he is the Manchurian candidate!

  • Snort, good one.

    I'm afraid it's simply Occam's Razor, though. Big money party, man of the party. Sigh.
