I think a lot of Americans do ignore the war. Largely because there is no draft, therefore only those that choose to be a part of the military are there. Not that they agree with what's happening or choose where they get stationed, but you get the idea. If there were still a draft, way more American's would be outraged at what Bush has done to our country because there would be far more of a chance that someone they know will be over there. As it stands, people are more insulated from it which keeps the Vietnam-like anti-war mentality from appearing as strongly. But if Bush gets re-elected, I truly fear for the future, because I know this situation will only get worse the longer he is at the helm.
