Back Again

Here he is. Back again after eleven hundred soldiers dead, over twenty thousand disabled, a hundred thousand Iraqi men and women and children killed, and a few hundred billion dollars spent in the war. And some people are still urging that we should trust that they are running an effective war against terrorism. Did I hear someone say “Bring it on?”
E Pluribus Unum. From many one! The whole nation pays taxes to finance a war whose profits are reaped by one company - Hally Burton - a war which we now know has nothing to do with the war against terrorism or even a war of preemption to eliminate the threat of WMD.
