I went to Crawford and stood in a parking lot with a small group of Veterans for Peace and Military Families Speak Out. Four police cars were there, and I'm sure every license plate was taken down. But press was there, so I hope the event, small though it was, made the evening news.

1. Snip

WASHINGTON - With public confidence declining in President Bush (news - web sites)'s handling of the war in Iraq (news - web sites), nearly 70 percent of Americans feel the United States will be bogged down in the country for years without achieving its goals, a poll finds.

The Newsweek poll released Saturday also found that nearly 6 of 10 people are concerned that the U.S. military will be overextended should another security threat arise outside Iraq. And 7 of 10 are concerned the costs of the war will increase the deficit and hurt the economy.
