And will you stand proud if the country falls to civil war when the people realize a patched up constitution won't really solve their problems? I look forward to seeing your post if that happens. Rightists, what bulls in the international china shop they are, and what hypocrites.

No doubt you got this bit of "knowledge" from some Slovenian cab driver.

"Stand proud and watch a new Democratic nation take root before our eyes America and our coalition partners!"

Did you transcribe that from the RNC website? LOL!

"If leftists had there way, this would not be happening and Saddam would still be murdering thousands and imprisoning tens of thousands to torture for power and control."

You don't see the irony of that statement?

How many tens or hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have we killed? How many tens or hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have we imprisoned? And yes, many of them are the same radical, fundamentalist hotheads that Hussein was killing and imprisoning. But we've added many more to the list who are innocent civilians.

Most Americans are leftists compared to rabid extremists like you and, you're right, if most Americans had their way they'd prefer to have left the Iraqis to solve their problems the way most sovereign nations solve them; internally. Or don't you read any polls? Ed
