New ideas, seems to me that you aren’t following your own advice at all. Yeah 70% of the United States citizens disapprove of the job and handling of Iraq, (including me) and your taking a huge risk saying that you don’t approve the war. Yeah, you got some great new ideas Paley. Paley,

We're staying there to protect our pride. Nothing more, nothing less. War is a flawed policy wrapped in illusion. This war began based on lies, and the arguments for staying there are also shrouded in lies. From the start, the government has nothing but indifference to the safety of Iraqis. Thanks to the outright incompetence of our leaders, Iraq is now in a state of chaos. Our officials have become a hated symbol of foreign occupation and a target for violence. It is up to the Iraqis to settle their differences and set the economic course for their nation. And reconstruction of Iraq's economy? Iraqi reconstruction is a complete failure. The Iraqi economy is in a shambles, while in Baghdad there is electricity and water for only a few hours each day. Bush cronies have treated Iraq as a spoil of war to plunder. Bring them home, already.

I never said bush didn't want to pull out troops!! All I said was that troops aren't being FORCED to join the army, well maybe being pressured by not physically being pulled into the army. They have their choice. Honeslty I think this war is POINTLESS and a waste of money. The United States bascally spends MILLIONS a year, and losing lives as the days go by. I am ashamed of this country. NOT SAYING I HATE IT. I am not being racial, but I am just ashamed of this country's descion to go in the war in the first place. And I am just mindful of the future consequences due to Bush's poor descions. =[ TO FRANCIS!!!

I think that going to war in the first place was a stupid idea from George Bush. My cousin is in Germany right now training. Soon he'll be in Iraq just like all of the other young adults or adults. I worry about him everyday and hope that he'll be alright there. I just keep wishing that this awful war would end. I think all of us know someone that's in the war right now, family or friends. I know that the troops are trying to represent America and fight for our country but I think that their time in Iraq has been enough and should stop now.

Not everyone has to have the same beliefs as their parents, you haven't even considered how much better off our society would be without all these red neck republicans holding us down. Open yourself up to new ideas. Steve, I really feel sorry for you that you only believe what your parents tell you at the dinner table.
