Is the war a success?

Posted by Eric on 12/8/2005, 15:27:33, in reply to "Not ment to be controversial"

Does this mean that the war was a good thing? Should we invade other places with dictators? I hear there's a lot of bad rulers in Africa. Of course we'll need to start drafting more folks. I'm 44, so I think it's unlikely I'll be called. What I mean is we need to look at not starting wars we don't need to start. Now that we're there . . . well, that's why we have to have these discussions. But it's important to remember we shouldn't be there in the first place.
