Political Rambling

[spicedogs]

Sadam Hussein is dead. He was executed today. I have mixed feelings about this news. The man was evil, no question about it. I have two simple questions: Is Iraq better off without this man? Are we safer from terrorists? 

I think not for both questions. Iraq is in turmoil, and life there is now more precarious than before. As far as we are concerned, I think that we opened up the floodgates to terrorists. Why did we have to invade Iraq? Why aren't we after Osama bin Laden? Why did we not concentrate on Afghanistan?

OK, enough political rambling.

I was sickened by how it was on EVERY SINGLE CHANNEL last night, even the non-newsy channels. Must they brag about it so much??

Iraw is going to shreds and we aren't any safer until Bin Laden is gone. And plus, we can't be the ones to kill him because they're for sure got a whole hierarchy of leaders lined up once we get him, and the next dude, and the next. They're always going to be around.

As far as those last three questions, go ask the ones who voted for Bush twice.
