justified,if gas prices were held down to 75 cents a gallon for 10 years? How many Americans do you think would sacrifice American and Iraqi lives for cheao gas?

5. It is sobering. But I believe Bush played the American people
I would have supported this war if they would give me gas for a liftime.But here in the south many of these people,especally conservitaves are shallow.While I try to remain an optimist.History has told a different story.Just 60 years Nazi's were gassing fellow humans.This administration and their propaganda scare me.While I am not equivicating them with Nazi Germany.9/11 hardened people Bush and friends used this sediment to wage war on Iraq.as much as wish it were untrue there are Limbaughs,O'reillys,Toby Keiths and Dennis Millers in our nation.

8. We have 10% of the world's population and consume 60% of
the resources. And SUV's are still flying off the selves. I think that says it all.

9. The same ones who support the invasion of Iraq using a pretext
Probably 40% plus would be my guess. Very few of those would admit it if asked directly (because its ugly), but that's what's behind it.
