Reply #4: I'm very heartened by the increasing open opposition to the Iraq war. [View All]

I say "open" opposition, because I think the opposition has always been there--but it just wasn't reported on as much back in the early days.

I know I sure was opposed to this fraudulent war the moment I heard of it.

But my hope is now dampened by the possibility that we'll go out of the frying pan and into the fire--by the possibility that even if we finally get our troops out of Iraq, the stupid, stunted, drunken president and his evil cabal might just turn right around and start us on a new and much more deadly misadventure in Iran. Damn them all!

I wish I could say to the Israel-firsters, such as Rahm Emanuel, "Don't you realize this shit isn't good for Israel, either??" There are lots of people in Israel who don't approve of these endless wars, but the media suppresses their voices.
