9. How about this choice
Edited on Sat Oct-15-05 07:27 PM by tomg
Most People - it was a complete fuck-up from jump, and we need to turn the entire thing over to the UN with a real peace-keeping force( with, yes, us footing the bill, including real re-building of a country we just trashed), give Bush and the rest of those clowns a quick trip to the Hague, and then really ask forgiveness of every American soldier and his or her family who died or was wounded or whose life was turned upside down ( again with, say, no taxes for the rest of their lives or their survivors lives, to say nothing of a real restored GI Bill and even that seems so inadequate), and then ask the same forgiveness of the Iraqi's whose lives we screwed up (and medical and national reconstruction).

And while we're at it, let's nationalize Halliburton and a few of the other groups that benefitted from no-bid contracts, and go after the damn war profiteers ( including oil).

I am really tired of their choices which, for the most part are either utter bullshit or ones that don't make us morally responsible for the actions of our leaders. As a start, I voted for Feingold's position.

on edit: didn't see the 08 either.
