longest. war. ever.

My ex-congressman Tom Campbell weighs in on Bush-Saddam II. I sure miss this guy; we exchanged some e-mail about the Anti Flag Burning Amendment and it was a really good discussion on which we had to agree to disagree. I hope there are people in Congress who are as smart, honest, and direct as he is. He ran for Senate against DiFi and lost, and now works at UC Berkeley. We got stuck with Mike Honda, but now have Zoe Lofgren (yay) thanks to the recent gerrymandering. So it's not a total loss...

no, not "prince albert"

apathy? who cares?

Here's my take on the war: don't give a fuck.  Bomb away, give `em democracy, give `em peace, put Saddam Hussein in Camp X-Ray.  Ten years from now, Iraq will still be a horrible place.  "Our" "victory" will be empty.  Same as it ever was.  History is so last millennium.

I suppose i could be optimistic and look forward to when one of our little sorties will buck the trend.  If nothing else, hey, we might actually learn something this time... ha, who am i kidding.  Here, fucking read this, will you?  That's a good chap.
