To characterize the Iraq war as somehow being a philosophical and moral fight is to re-characterize what hill of beans we were sold in the first place. At every turn of bad news, the neo-cons reframe the conflict. And what war? We ran the Iraqi army over in less than a month. We were not prepared for the occupation that the neo-cons had planned all along, with their absurd image of roses being thrown at our soldiers’ feet.
No worry, just rewrite the “Mission Accomplished†scenario for clichéd massesâ€â€frame our missteps in glorious flag-draped hyperboleâ€â€you’re not with us; you’re a traitor. What shallow bs, just like the cowards running the show from Washington; the Chicken Hawks will get there place in history. Future generations will see how we did finally get the government we deserved. Not to worry, let the poor and disadvantaged defend our freedomâ€â€no sacrifice for the slobbering fatheads sitting on the couch watching the psychobabble emanate from the FOX box: “were fighting them there so we don’t have to fight them here†mantra, which escapes the logic of numbers. Not to worry rich college student person, let the others "defend our freedom." If this is such a moral and patriotic occupation, why aren't the recruiting offices jam with our best? we know the reason, it's neither...
