i am surprised that this kind of behaviour persists---it seems to me kind of infantile---but am also quite bored with the fact of it, and so will simply stop here.

Nice to see you again, roach. Don't worry though, my support for bush isn't 100%. He lost about 15 percentage points from me on his stance on immigration.
So he's currently receiving a B (better than he did in college).
Aside from that. It doesn't really matter to me what news reports on the war say. There is one side who wants nothing more than a complete withdrawl from iraq asap. Those people I will not listen to, for those people will not listen reason, do not realize (or care) what would happen if we were just to pack up and leave tomorrow. Harping on reasons for the war is pointless now, and will not help us to win. We have 2 options. We can bring our troops home before iraq is ready or we can stay until the job is done. 1 option will lead to a complete mess, the other to much less of a mess.
