There sure are a lot of posters on freerepublic who seem to salivate at the prospect of US getting into a big war that kills a lot of people (including, inevitably, a lot of Americans). I assume all these war-whoopers are middle-aged with kids also over draft age, and have their money out of stocks and bonds.

I'm glad W doesn't seem as eager to get into a big wide war with the Muslim world.

Guess I'm with W. Unless absolutely necessary - and I haven't been persuaded that it is - - I'd just as soon put WW III off, thank you.

No one wants to get into a big war. However, to anyone who's been paying attention, it seems inevitable. Better it's on our terms. China, for example, is counting on it.

I would question your characterization of me but I don't have time right now. I need to pick up my kids from soccer practice and check out how my 401K plan is doing. We soccer moms need to stick together.
