glynch, I didn't realize you thought war was so funny. This seems very inconsistent with your previous positions. It seems you have FLIP FLOPPED, just like your hero candidate does when public opinion changes!
War isn't funny, but the method in which the Neocons currently controlling the government have prosecuted the war is darkly comical, to say the least. Where are those flower and candy showers from the Iraqi people again, bigtexxx?
It is a sort of gallows humor. Back in the last century when you Germans were into starting wars like we now are, did you have this type of humor?
funny, my brother's classmate from harvard law school runs that site, i just got an email of it this morning.
Supporters of the war feel better staying on the more abstract level when supporting war. "Oooh body bags. " Gross!!"
Have I stated that I am a supporter of the war? I think everyone, especially those who might indeed have lost sons or daughters in Iraq, feels better if they do not have to look at incredibly tasteless and stupid "jokes" about body bags.
Jackie, I wasn't thinking of you. Did you support the war? I don't see you as being one of the big supporters.
