the american people was solidly behind this war at the beginning. They just wanted it on the cheap, and in their ignorance, they thought they could have it on the cheap. they called us cautious voices "cowards" or other such names.

Now we can ssay, "we told you so", and now they retreat to their homes, with their tails between the legs, knowing full well they were wrong.

But, at what cost did their arrogance end?

The American people have never been above allowing their government to do illegal things...it's only when they're forced to put their snout to the crap they've laid that they recoil (just like a dog).

God, how I wish there was some foreign Eisenhower that would force the American people to walk by OUR concentration camps or the destruction in Iraq. How I wish we WERE FORCED to see what we have wrought. Maybe it would teach us the humility and shame that the Germans have exhibited after World War II.
