Most elected Democrats voted *against* war in Iraq

46. The American people - hence Duhbya's second term. That's all the proof we need.

You and I might HATE war to the nth degree, but we're outnumbered by Americans who worship violence. This nation has a fixation with violence, and they need their "fix" every so many years.

Twenty six-year-olds are massacred behind their desks in school, yet we find little sympathy when we try to pass even the weakest gun laws in order to, at least, prevent nuts from getting their unstable hands on more guns, or minimizing ammo magazines that would blow less people to pieces.

Our fanatical gun culture. Our love of war. Our fascination with killing and seeing death. Our innate disdain and loathing for our poor, hungry, sick, unemployed, disabled, and minorities are proof that we are NOT a peaceful nation and to continue to believe we are is futile.

It is that aggressiveness in the American people that then Senator Clinton had to show her "hawkishness". It's the reason why Democrats have lost against Republicans in the past - they are "doves" while Republicans are "hawks!" and "strong in defense!" and it's all propagandized bull, but it's bull the American people embrace with all their violent little hearts.

Understanding this, I can overlook Clinton's IWR, just as long as we get a Democrat in the White House before yet another Republican steals the elections, get installed, and then has the privilege of appointing more corporate lackeys on the Supreme Court. So I'm not going to cut my nose off to spite my face. I'd rather hold it tightly as I vote for a Democrat because the alternative is ten times worse.
