Why aren't you moral enough to blame Bush for the deaths of those Iraqis? Why? You know, the Shiites have guns also and they've just set back the Constitutional process at the last minute by admitting they want their own autonomous region in the south. Why did they do that? If not having a Constitution is helping to the fuel the insurgency (in the insane calculus of the Bush administration of course), why did Shiites stop it in its tracks? Why?

We can't control what the Iraqis do Bob. Only the Iraqis themselves can do that. We can influence what we do.

This is what I am talking about. news.yahoo.com Where is the moral outrage to the 50 or 100 Iraqis that are being killed every day? Who put you in such an isolationist bubble that you care more about the bad things that we are doing to suicide insurgents in isolated cases than the mass murders committed by the salafis on a daily basis? What idiot told you to stick your nose in a country where didn't belong? In my earlier post, I tried to be reasonable with you but if you want something more, then go for it. Too many of you who are less informed than the rest of us have had your way for way too long. As a consequence all kinds of people are dying left and right. So, dude, don't try to turn the tables on me and put the blame on me. I have said from the very beginning the last thing we need to do is invade Iraq. But did you all listen, of course not.......in your ignorance and arrogance you proceeded and now that its a mess, you don't want anybody to discuss it. Like with other problems in your life, you want to shove it under some table and get back to your skeet shooting or your fly fishing or your NASCAR races. Well sorry, dude, its too late for that. This little problem can't be shoved under someone's table. You and your Mr. Bush have opened up Pandora's Box and the world will never be the same. I am insensitive only to the violence that we must use against these religious assassins. Where is the heart bleeding for all of the Iraqi victims? Why don't any of the liberals have any compassion for the Shiites that are being blown apart? Why do you keep labelling them as puppets of the Bush administration that do not deserve our support? Liberals care for all people. I wish I could say the same for you neocons. I didn't hear you crying when innocent Iraqis were dying during shock and awe. No, you all were glued to your tvs with popcorn and beer in hand watching the bombs go off, making pretty colors and big noises. All neocons care about are themselves! And its hurting this country badly!
