simple question....?
was it worth going to war to remove saddam? When it is perfectly clear now that he was not an imminent threat.

- it cost over 1000 American lives

- $175 billion ($4000 dollars per average American family in one year!!)

- conservatives estimate - 15,000 Iraqi lives

- instead of decreasing chances of nuclear proliferation - doing the exact opposite.

- The world in general - is not a safer place.


what do you think....? I feel we should have gone the UN route.

1. Why do you think we're working so hard
to give Bush and company the boot..and that doesn't even count all the other illegal things this administration has done.

2. I think this has been answered...
thousands of times in a thousand ways here already.

It IS WHY we are working for Kerry and Edwards, and against the current criminals.
