Maybe you're a "traitor" if you support those who bring down our country's economy and reputation in the eyes of the world. I'm not saying you are but quit saying we who distrust Bush are. Since when does America = GW Bush? He wasn't even fairly elected. 40% of the country and most of the world cannot stand him. And where did he earn the right to boss us all around? And since when is Saddam Hussein the biggest problem we have? Really just a medium-sized tin-pot dictator. North Korea is much more dangerous. If he didn't have tons of oil Bush wouldn't even think about Saddam.

This whole "traitor", "un-American" talk is really silly. Even liberal Democrats have supported bombing Saddam and putting him in a tight box. Guys like Lieberman are more hawkish than Bush because they're so pro-Israel. The difference is some are much more eager a quasi-unilateral war on the national credit card than others. Bushies say they want to avoid war but they sure dont act that way. It's like they're salivating to get their hands on that oil and cant wait to sit in their arm-chairs and watch the war on TV.

Also remember, nobody but Powell in the White House has even ever been in a war. So why trust them as the experts? I'd love to be able to trust them but I just can't. That said, if they really want to stake their careers on Iraq, go ahead and attack. Can't stop them anyway.
