I have bad vibes about the decision to use force in Iraq. Many muslims will view this as a Christian Nation (Us) invading a Muslim country. Many other muslims will see this as a quest for oil. Others will view it as American Imperialism. I fear fighting between the Kurds, the Sunnis and the Shia. In other words, a civil war which will require our presence for a long time. The longer we stay, the more we will be resented. I do expect more armed opposition from Iraqis than we expect.

Bush v. Gore was the worst decision by the US Supreme Ct since Plessy v. Ferguson legalized "separate but equal" in 1892.
