for an elective blank check to go to war; a war that by the time we are finished will cost our treasury trillions and then saying you are fighting poverty is an irony, at best. These are Trillions that could have been better spent....

I also believe that Edwards saying 3 years later.... "Sorry, but I'll have to live with this forever" (while I run for President as penance) is no solace, and doesn't quite answer those who will also have to live with the results of Edwards' complicity all of their lives.....although obviously it is seen as Edwards being courageous by others.

I feel a disconnect between what this war is costing us and the state of our treasury. I see the same kind of disconnect with Republican candidates who say they value all life, yet don't have a problem with 650,000 dead Iraqis.
