And the Band Plays On

I was amazed yesterday. A friend, not some stupid, lunatic fringe person but an intelligent woman, told me that she believes Iraq had WMD's.
When I asked her where Saddam had hidden them that we haven't been able to find them in 5 years, she was totally unwavering in her conviction that they're still there. Somewhere.

Huh?

Until that happened, I still held hope that we might not get dragged into yet another pointless and illegal war.
But when I hear this woman who: 1] has no use, at all, for Bush 2] calls him a pathological liar 3] hates the way the country is going STILL buy the WMD story wholesale, I absolutely despair for us all.

The people Bush wants to attack for no reason are PEOPLE NOT TARGETS.
The people he wants to send are OUR KIDS -- NOT ASSETS.
And, I fear he will get away with it. Again.
