When people run in circles..It's a very very...Mad World....Mad World.

I consider myself to be somewhat outspoken and to voice my opinion when I feel passionate about a subject. When it comes to politics I like to take in all sides and consider all options, but I am not afraid to state my case even if those involved in the discussion do not exactly agree with my opinion. But I am usually careful in the settings in which I bring up the topic of politics, for it is a very sticky subject. However right now I feel that it is a good time for my voice and the voice of my fellow peers to be heard. I am in complete oposition to Bush's resolution to build up troops in Iraq. 20,000+ is not a build up, its another small army. For those interested, to get a better idea of this movement check out more: mobileresist
I am not afraid to stand up for what I believe in.I "apologize" if it seems a little self centered, but what good is this "War" doing for our country? I think the idea of this war has been lost and the reasons it began have been forgotten. Do we actually believe that we can help spread some of the American ideals of democracy to a country such as Iraq? These people have been fighting one another since the beginning of time over a simple matter of religion. If they wanted to be liberated and instill some sort of democratic government they would have come to terms and overthrown their government long ago. I am not saying that many of them don't want to be liberated but its not up to our country to help them do so. "If there is a will then there is a way.." Right now the only will they seem to have is to destroy one another. The Kurds, the Shiites and the Sunis can't even come to grips with one another's difference in religious faiths,so how can they ever agree on governing a country together? This war no longer deals with our country, so lets stop meddling in Iraq's business and take a closer look at our nation. Yes, I support our troops...I support to bring them home.

I checked out that website and was is pretty damn funny. I think some people are afriad to believe that something in the bible might be mere fiction. People are so close minded to things that challenge their faith. And on the subject of Bush and the War, i think its time for ole W to get the HELL out of the White House!
