Bull****. In almost every case the infrastructure is better than before the war
started.

In the mode I intended it, Iraq is a mess because we have accomplished
little, at a loss of 1500 lives, Billions of Dollars, infinite loss of
respect from both the countries of the middle east, and out former
allies in Europe.

Bull****. Most of the world would agree that the changes to the mideast amount
to a very significant accomplishment.

As for Osama -- he was declared to be our primary target following 9/11.
It's been well over 3 years and we haven't got him -- probably because
of the distraction of Iraq.

More bull****. It took the police and FBI twenty plus years to catch the BTK
killer in Wichita. What the hell are you folks going to bitch about when Osama
*is* caught? Ninety percent of your whining rationale will be gone.

Do *YOU* think Iraq is a well ordered, well run place you might like to
vacation to?

I suppose it would be better off if the Iraqis were getting killed and dumped at
the rate of 30,000 =/- per year?

Would you like to vacation in Kosovo?

Jimcomma, you lost the election. Your whines and rants do nothing to serve your
liberal interests.
