33. Maybe it's abject shame
Edited on Wed Dec-19-07 06:27 PM by Mike03
It's so obvious that the Iraq war is a catastrophe that it's almost hard to think about, at least for me. It's sort of in the background of everything I do and think, but there's a lot of denial too.

The people who are in favor of the war don't mention it because they don't want to call attention to how obscene it is, and the people who are against it are perhaps so worn down, so demoralized and so listless from the years of trying to speak the truth and having it denied and shouted down that there's this sort of psychological impasse.

I don't know, that's just a gut assessment.

I'm just so ashamed on so many levels, that... eh...
