I'm curious, shakran. Please indulge me here: what is the point in wallowing in sorrow over events of the past? Fine, you made your point - Bush will never have your support for this war. But I have news for you: this thing in Iraq will be going on for a loooong, looong time after Bush is gone. It's not on Bush anymore.
Isn't it time to look forward YET? Isn't it time to stop pouting, dry your eyes, and stand up and work with the hand that has been dealt? Because unless you have a time machine, there is no other reality.
I'll give it a rest for now.
