>>> To the extent that this is a war of perception -- and on some level, all wars are -- the perception that the United States is deeply divided is damaging. The actual debate is over the Iraq campaign and not the war as a whole, but this has increasingly been lost in the clamor. <<< That has been my point from the beginning! In war, you attack one's center of gravity. North Viet Nam learned that our center of gravity was public opinion. I have been opposed from the beginning about our divisiveness. Once war starts, we must act as one, at least publicly, if we are to save lives in the long run. But, we've beat that horse to death already. In the beginning of this war, the center of gravity that al Queda was attacking was our economic system. In the end, it will be public opinion again. Instead of whining about Bush lying to us about WMD's, we need to focus on the real objectives and then support those. Nobody is contesting the real objectives, merely whining about politics at a time when others are losing their life. I find this disgusting. dabum
