Politico Warmongers and peaceniks

While I don't support chip off the old Bush in any fashion and I do think he's warmongering simply because he wants to show Daddy that he can win the war his father lost, I don't always agree with the peaceniks either. The Campaign to Stop the War against Iraq says this in one of their sample letters:

(about various countries including Iraq) Not one of those people ever came over here and bombed us.

And that's not true. People did come here and bomb us, they did bring a war to our doorsteps. And some of those people do have ties back to countries like Iraq and Irag may be funding, may be training them. You drive the getaway car or give the bad guys money to buy guns and ski masks, same dif, your hands are just as bloody.

Do I think bombing the crap out of Iraq will do any good? No. But do I think the leaders of that country are innocent little lambs? Hell No. Do I have any simple answers? No. And the people who think they do are wrong.
