Time for Dems to Tell Bush to Leave-it's a BAD WAR
Just because some pundit wisdom is to trash Bush, but end up with the mantra 'But we still have to stay there anyway until we're done'
doesn't make it so. Bush again showed last night that he wants the Iraq war under the umbrella of a never-ending war on terror, without any exit timeline, without any consideration of the American or Iraqi people. If some prominent Democrats want to buy into this and say that they support Bush anyway, fine for them. I won't. And I'd like to see a groundswell of constituents saying, every time a politician or pundit spews this swill, that we don't have to stay there until some nebulous time when Bush pulls an "it's done" out of his ass.

1. Caps coming on - IT IS NOT A WAR!
/normal case

It is the invasion and occupation of a sovereign country. Terminology matters.

/short rant off

2. No more paper ballots counted by hand
means the elites who control the machines do not have to concern themselves with public opinion anymore.

The only limiting factors for the war machine are manpower and finances. As long as the Fed and its bond buyers keep the U.S. economy from collapsing, the 100-year war will continue, with an option to renew at the expiration of the first 100 years.
