The war is unpopular because you’ve been told we’ve been losing for the last four years. If you want to talk about unpopular, then just let Ron Paul talk to the public. Libertarianism is just unpopular, its anti-popular.
Lets not confuse popularism with doing what is right. We win in Iraq and we just stop bothering to have a defense. It doesn’t matter the reason for retreat because our enemies will all agree that it was because they defeated us.
You got to get past this conspiracy theory stuff. Somehow we tricked the entire world into thinking that Iraq had WMD and that Saddam was an evil dictator? And we probably blew up the Twin Towers ourselves too? Even if either were possible, wouldn’t it be a lie just too good to keep to yourself and one of these socialist buttplugs in the State department would have leaked it to the NYT by now.
Whether the Bush administration knew the Iraq intelligence was faulty does not concern me. Incompetence is just a troubling.
The world is full of evil dictators. We give money and friendship to some and wage expensive wars on others.
