1. Today show did a segment this morning...
they were asking if we're better off now than we were three years ago at the start of the war. It started out pro-war and how great things are now.

A Navy doctor who won the CMA in Iraq was asked if it was worth it. He didn't answer the question. I think most of the panel think it was not worth it.

I must say I am disappointed with Ret. General McAffrey. He supports bush and the war. It was more obvious today than any other time I had seen him.

2. So stupid; of course we're not better off. Iraq had nothing to do with us
Nothing to do with 911.

Nothing to do with terrorists.

And now we're half a trillion dollars poorer, 2400 Americans are dead, 50,000 Americans are torn apart.

Now add in all the hatred towards us around the world bush's illegal invasion has caused, the terrorists bush's illegal invasion has created, the genocide of innocent men, women & children bush's illegal invasion has murdered...

There never was, there never will be any way we are "better off now" from having invaded an innocent nation that hadn't been doing anything to anyone. That's just simple common sense.

4. If anyone in 2000 had told me AMERICA would be an INVADER
I would have thought them insane.

Iraq; an innocent nation that hadn't been doing anything to anyone.

America; invader of an innocent nation that hadn't been doing anything to anyone.

"Don't forget Poland." I won't; they too were an innocent nation, invaded.
