we were all lied to by bushco, but none were betrayed more horrifically than those who joined up out of a sense of patriotism and duty after 9/11.

now, knowing as we do that bushco and blair cooked the intelligence and lied us into war, the sacrifices of our soldiers are more stinging and more awful to comprehend.

he lied to them, to our patriotic children who went to iraq out of a sense of pride and duty and honor, he lied them into early graves.

what kind of a beast can do that, and then smile about it?

4. I'd agree if you can explain one thing
How does blowing up a bunch of people who were no threat to us, who never meant us any harm, and who can't get away or fight back, serve our national pride and honor?

5. It doesn't.
However, it DOES succeed at getting folks KILLED.
Reducing the "excess population" and all that.
