The relevent difference is that this war was not needed. Usually when America sends in a peace-keeping force there is usually an actual fight that needs someone to step between. I liken a peace-keeping force to a principal or teacher stepping in between two fighting students and sending them each to their respective corner. This war however was more like the teacher walking up to a student doodling on his desk and punching him in the face.
This has nothing to do with (D) vs. (R). This has everything to do with RIGHT AND WRONG. This has everything to do with bringing death to tens of thousands of INNOCENT people in Iraq in my name, in your name, in your neighbor's name, in you mother's name, in my mother's name.. in the name of every single citizen of the United States of America. That blood is now on OUR hands. I for one don't like having blood on my hands over false information and lies.
There was doubt about almost every single piece of information posed to justify this war. As i said above, if you are going to take your country to war you had DAMN well better be sure you KNOW what you're doing it for.
