Thanks, Mark, for a well written post and an excellent link. If Beccy, Old Guy, et al, will take the time to read this link I think they will no other choice but to do some serious rethinking.

This is the point we have been trying to make all along. Why Iraq? And why now? And why *war* as pretty close to the the top of the list of first resorts? Why the lack of diplomacy? Why all this huff 'n puff foriegn policy? Why... Why...

These are seasonable questions that have not been answered. All we have gotten is a lot of PR crap but not a single answer that a civilized and thinking person, especially aftering reading your post and link, would recognize as being an "answer".

I mean, personally, I'd rather hear Bush tell the truth for a change and tell us his real motivations but he won't. At least they would be *honest*. But to give us this same old PR is disrespectfull to not only the folks that are going to die but for the American people who pay his salary!

Beam me up!

Resist stupid foreign policies!
