97. I wonder - if Kerry wins, and Iraq becomes a "Democratic" occupation,
Edited on Thu Feb-19-04 03:13 PM by Minstrel Boy
how many currently opposed will find cause to support it? Because whether Bush or Kerry win, I fully expect Iraq to be garrisoned by American troops four years from now. Disheartening, I know, but there you have it.

And this is as disheartening a season as 1968, after Eugene McCarthy faltered and Robert Kennedy was murdered, and the last man standing was Hubert Humphrey. Why should opponents of Bush's pillaging be excited at the prospect of supporting one of its enablers?

Getting rid of Bush should mean more than getting rid of the man. Or is it really, after all, just personal?
