I am an old fart .
However , to pass the point when the supreme court told bush go ahead , you are the president and to the day of 9/11 when the US decided to attack and bomb Afghanistan since this was dummed up in the news then it was off to Iraq because of the lies and fear .
Now here is where I need help . What was it that drove the people of the US to support either attack other than fear . The people I worked with at the time were not afraid , rather hated dark skinned people .
We can talk about morals , however if any person who claims to have morals how could they be sold on these attacks ?
Now I hear over 70% of the population want out of Iraq , is this a sudden loss of racism or fear , is it tht they know we are not winning , is it the affect this had on the economy , I don't really know , I was against both attacks from the start .
So have the american people changed ? what I see is any power even an employer is willing to toss anyone out in the street to save themselves , I see that it is easy to pick on the weak just as we did attacking Iraq .
I clearly remember all of the cars and trucks with the american flags stuck to the windows supporting this war and supporting bush . People even voted for bush a second time , even with the diebold many still voted a second time .
I ask again , how is it that people have changed suddenly and this seems to have been in the last few years .
To be honest I feel the only change is people who supported this horror only changed because they were affected in a bad way by this .
