3. And here's my question ...
Why is John King quoting the president of the VFW to the CHAIR of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee? Which person has the expertise here? Hmm, let's think about this.

Senator Kerry gave an excellent answer, but I'm having issues with John King's question.

4. Its way past time to end this war. If Kerry had won, I would have
been protesting and writting letters to Senate and Congress, just like I am right now for healthcare and the AGI bonuses. The war is fucking wrong. We've killed enough to more than get even for our own losses. The war does not stink less just because one politician replaced another. Our leaders just don't get it, its time to bug out.

5. The death merchants bring about war;
Those of the public with blood lust cheer on this destruction without knowing the ultimate costs; at all times this eventually includes them. Soon, in the history of humans, the vast majority of public opinion weighs against further hostilities and peace is called for. Long after the killing stops the death merchants start the chant that 'If only... If only.' I say kill the death merchants. Stab them as little children did to the pig-boy. Shoot them like cows led to slaughter. Cut off their heads as chickens are and become we will be amused by their mindless antics while it lasts. We have the power to stop war. I fear that power will soon wither away as multinationalistic corporations gain more power, political, monetary and militaristicly, around the world. So much sci-fi media have predicted this. I say that they will be the power within the next few decades. Stop them now.

"Cut off the head and the body dies."
