Poll:Do you support the war in Iraq?

In My Humble Opinion
61

I do not support the war.
I live in California.

A week ago, I was listening to Bush address troops at a base. He spoke of bringing freedom to Iraq and ridding the world of tyranny. And dammit, I wanted to believe. But I cannot.

War is on the front page of pretty much every newspaper. What’s not on the front page, and what is not being talked about much?

The economy. Budget crisis in lots of states. The rise in fuel prices, and how they’re not coming down(and more importantly, how some people are making billions on it). Corporate scandals. Our sorry state of education. The fact the Osama Bin laden has eluded, and continues to elude us.

Wag the dog. Change the story, change the focus.

No. I do not support this war. And I don’t know anyone in my area who thought it was a good idea.

This war is another one of our unelected president’s personal ego trips, just like abandoning the ABM treaty, abandoning the Kyoto protocol, abandoning the World Court, walking out of the world conference on racism, bankrolling Israel’s bullying of the Palestinians, bankrolling government attacks on dirt farmers in Colombia, and forgetting to include aid to Afghanistan in his budget. What an asshole!
