Poll question: On a scale of 1 through 10, how fresh is the Iraq invasion in your mind?
Are you among the many Americans, at least according to the MSM, who have lost interest in the war?


How angry are you, on a scale of 1-10?

1: Not angry at all anymore

5: Angry every now and then when it's brought up somewhere

10: Seething, still angry as hell about everything and everyone involved in the fiasco

2. Seething, etc., and becoming more disgusted and angry and apoplectic daily
due to the lack of coverage or ACTION being taken to DO something and bring our troops home.

Damn, I'm getting pissed just answering your poll! :grr:

4. I'm not sure you'd get honest answers from this question.
Most Democrats supported Bush after 9-11. Not many would admit it today.

7.  Really? MOST working class Democrats???
We supported our country, and got royally screwn for that. And me and my democratic friends and family were disgusted. But we were watching our country go fucking insane and were caught up short.

6. When the Ohio dem chair said Iraq was not a major topic for the debate...
...I said some very bad words. Jobs are important, but Iraq is just as huge....

9. Four friends, a year of my life...
...and the ability to sleep all the way through a night.

That's what it cost me. I'd say it's pretty "fresh" still.

12. the invasion is my litmus test for candidates
i live in a district that voted in adam schiff, twice. when i wrote schiff prior to the vote advising him a "no" vote he wrote back, 'if you knew what i know you'd support my intention to vote yes'. i replied if he trusted what this administration was parading before him justifying the impending attack against iraq, then schiff would never again have my support. schiff replied by form letter that his mind was made up and no entreaties from the consitituency could move his vote away from his fixed and firm position. schiff then took on the role as the leading democratic party supporter of the current administration, and continues as such.

i understand schiff plans a huge party, a $1000-a-plate-fundraiser, with cake and french champagne to celebrate his killing of the 4000th GI. further, that he intends to have SWAT and mounted police break up the demonstration mourning his victims.

those might be rumors, though i don't doubt those would be schiff's preferences.



recommended.
