Is it human nature to disbelieve that which you don't wish to believe?
It strikes me that this is so, because even now many Americans obstinately persist in their delusions that the war in Iraq is somehow justified by 911.
Doesn't it annoy anyone else that lots of our troops signed up to "focus their fury" on Osama after 911 but wound up diverted to Iraq?
Don't we betray their courage and abuse their trust by sending them after the wrong villain?
Is that why so many are not reenlisting?
Or, is that because every reason we were given to attack Iraq was a bald-faced, calculated, disingenuous, self-serving lie.
Bush told Blair we're going to war, memo reveals
If you do not maintain your honor then you cannot maintain your morale. You do not promote morale by shouting-down the whistle blowers, you promote morale by keeping the honor clean of the US marine.
Frankly president Bush disgusts me. The nation united after 911 as I had never seen and he used it as an opportunity to advance a personal agenda.
I can't believe he was reelected.
I guess I answered my own question.
