war sucks, mmkay

Here's another voice against war, via dr_memory. I would recommend this one especially to you pro-war folk, as it's very well written.

Hua: There's a lot of more-or-less rational people out there who are 100% convinced that this war is absolutely necessary to protect the security of this country. I'm surprised you haven't run across more of them.

A good place to start: James Lileks, the guy behind the Gallery of Regrettable Food and other similar things that I've pimped to you before, has a daily weblog-ish thing called the Daily Bleat (http://lileks.com/bleats/), and it's mostly been talking about the war recently. I tend to use Lileks as my personal dipstick of what middle america is thinking: he's well-educated, articulate, thoughtful, Republican without being a frothing paranoids or cryptonazi...and 100% convinced that if we don't invade Iraq now now now, Iraqi agents are going to be releasing VX nerve gas in the NYC subways next year. He also links to a lot of people with similar positions, so it's a good place to start.
