I see in the paper that George W. Bush thinks that the American people support the Iraq war. The reason for this is because we are there and can’t get out. I don’t know who they asked when they took this poll but they sure didn’t ask me. If you asked the question “Do you think we should have started a war with Iraq?” I think the answer would be no.
It is a shame that we are fighting a war that the Iraqis are not willing to fight. They know as long as we have 145,000 U.S. troops over there to do their dirty work there is no way that they will do anything except watch and laugh at us.
It is way past time that George W. wakes up to the fact that he has started a war that has no ending. We will probably end up just like Korea, staying there for years to come and wasting money on a lost cause.
Our president says that he will cut the deficit in half this term but I will be willing to bet it will double.
