Who Cares What You Think?

Despite polls consistently showing that a majority of Americans want
American troops pulled out of Iraq in short order, President Bush is
refusing to even consider that option.
In fact, signs are that he is leaning in the opposite direction,
choosing to send yet more troops into harm's way.
And despite the obvious, palpable urgency, Bush this week decided he
needs more time to think things through -- rescheduling until some
unspecified point in the new year an announcement the White House had
previously said would come before Christmas.

When one thinks that if he would have done it 3 years before, maybe now
he would have his own place in history (:-)

John Kerry
and;
REP. DENNIS KUCINICH: We are rapidly approaching the grave number of
3,000 dead US service members. But as painful as that is -- and it's
very painful -- the estimated 650,000 deaths attributed to hostilities
in Iraq is an overwhelming number to comprehend. While it is natural and
appropriate for Americans to first focus upon the deaths of American
service members in Iraq, it's astounding to consider that for every
service member killed, 200 Iraqi civilians have been killed.
