That we have collectively failed to halt and repudiate the war in Iraq makes us even worse than the Germans.

We say that we care about the war, but we don't even really know what we're fighting for.

The UN stopped using Chalabi's information as a basis for conducting inspections once the tenuous nature of his sources and his dubious motivations became clear. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for the mainstream US media, which give prominent coverage to sources of information that, had they not been related to Hussein's Iraq, would normally be immediately dismissed.

Iraq has a tremendous amount of history.

I really am tired of all the Clinton Democrats running around getting all-sanctimonious over Iraq. It was them who killed 1.5 to 2.2 million Iraqis through sanctions. Sanctions that Madeline Albright, their illustrious Secretary of State, when confronted with the fact of 500,000 dead Iraqi children, said it was a price she was willing to pay.

I love my country more than anything. I spent 12 years in the United States Marine Corps. I know what it means to defend this country.

I didn't promote war when I was a weapons inspector.
