53. Time To Be Realistic...
Edited on Wed Feb-25-04 08:22 AM by arwalden
You cling to the view that the invasion of Iraq could have been stopped by a vote in the Senate. It could not have been. Therefore the cry of "enabler" is hollow and false. The fact is that the invasion of Iraq is the responsibility of the criminals of the '00 Coup who conceived, pressed, and executed the act, and of no other. The only thing that "enabled" them is the structure and practice of governance. It has a nice sound, the line you press, but it is a false and misguided line, that will produce no good result.

I understand your sentiments and frustration, I really do. I urge you to act in a way that will remove the criminals from the White House, not in a way that empowers them
