Just trying to find common ground on what price is too high...I think we found it.

Then we need to decide at what cost will bringing democracy to Iraq be worth it? How many more dead? How many more billions?

We started out this war in Iraq going for WMD...now the goal has shifted to nation building and bringing democracy, ie capitalism, to Iraq. But if democracy is so sweet...why does it take guns and soldiers to bring it?

When the Iraqi people stand up for democracy themselves, the terrorists and the Saddam loyalists don't stand a chance. As Patrick Henry said, "Give me liberty or give me death." Those are the words that inspire a revolutionary. Where are those words of inspiration in Iraq?
