I HATE this war and I HATE bushco for ruining the world~!

Gee, do you watch the news or read the paper??? Do you vote??? He didn't make that decision alone. I believe he had the votes in congress to make the move....get your head out of the sand and remember we didn't start this ....bin laden did and we still don't get it. He is alive and well and planning on hitting us again....so quit dwelling on Bush bashing and support our brave military, who are saving your sorry a** daily.

This just shows you can't "plan" your life- life happens, whether you like it or not. Jennifer, I am sorry for your loss. You are young, smart and you sound confident. Observe your pain and visualize happiness and comfort for yourself. Believe in living in the moment and understading the past is no longer here-you can't do anything about it and the future is unknown. Choose to be positive and true to yourself, and things will be there when you need them.

Dana and geneva - I probably should have known but I honestly wasn't expecting this to get political (yes stupid of me). Without getting too crazy, let me just say that it is possible to support the military and criticize the president at the same time. It really bothers me when everytime someone says "War is bad" other people say "shut up and support the troops".

I've been accused of hating our troops on my own blog, when I blogged about the Korean War museum in Seoul. I'm not exactly sure why, maybe I said something about the Korean war being bad or whatever, but I do know it's total BS.

That said Geneva, dana is right. Bush was granted power to make war by congress. You see Hillary Clinton answering questions about that all the time now. First she gives president Bush the authority and then she says he misused it and the war was a stupid decision. At the risk of getting political, I think Clinton needs to stop making excuses for herself ("I didn't know he was going to make war so irresponsibly"). She needs to accept responsibility for what she did, how she voted.

xyz - Thank you for focusing your comment on the issue I meant to address. You, my friend, are awesome!

I think we all need to remember what is important to us. Our way of life. We see the way that side of the world lives. Innocent people dying daily at the hands of their government. This war is more about civil injustice and protecting us from that same injustice. Where exactly would you like this war to be fought, on their soil or ours. When we walk away, Bin Laden will bring it here as well as all his supporters. Do we not remember what they attacked on September 11, 2001. It was not a military post, or a factory building weapons, it was a civilian airline flights, several, and a civilian office building. They killed thousands of civilians, unarmed and going about their daily lives just as we did. If they had not been thwarted when they were, how many other civilian targets would have been hit that day. They attacked civilian first then government second. In a war like that, I am happy to have it fought on enemy soil, not mine. My family and my children are important to me, and they are important to George Bush, and the military of our great country. Pull your heads out of your asses long enough to realize, we are not fighting for the iraqi citizens, we are fighting for us over there. Back your President, back your servicemen, and unite to stand tall against the enemy. War is a horrible thing, people die, but they know the risk and put themselves there, we did not the day we went to work on the skyline of NYC and lost so many just trying to pay the bills and keep this wonderful country going strong.
Second, quoting Hilary? Do we not remember who it was that did nothing with the information he had that could have ended all this. The man that had Saddam Hussein in his serviceman's sight more than a dozen times and let him go, had Bin Laden in his radar and walked away. The democratic fence sitter that very well could have stood up and been a man but was too worried about where he was going to get his next peice of pussy to worry about what was right for this country. The woman we all know was his only political adviser, and very much ran this nation from the First Lady spot. Do we really want her in office again? To just ignore the problem again until it crops up over here again. When they have convinced all of you the threat is over, and life resumes, and they put their head back in the sand, in walks the enemy with all the pomp and circumstance of a new bride to just destroy our way of life in any manner of his choosing. You forget, it was U.S. money that backed this man's efforts at first. The very country that gave him all his needs, supplied him with the funds to destroy it.
Okay stepping off my soap box now. Just wanted to remind everyone of the horror they felt listening and watching as the plane smoldered and the second one took aim at the second tower. I remember that day, I still cry. My husband made it home safe, but not everyone's did. Not all mothers came home from work that night, and some children lost both. Do you want it to be your children? Do you want it to be your spouse? I don't!
