Comments on: Washington In A Timewarp http://viewpointjournal.com/archives/2005/09/22/washington-in-a-timewarp/ You've Entered The Room With a View!

Believe it or not, I welcome them. What I'm saying is that most of the anti-war movement is made up of professional protesters. Yes, there are many honest and sincere people -- such as yourself perhaps -- who question what is going on in Iraq, but all of the organization around anti-war protest events are planned and run by professionals, such as Ms. Sheehan's current handlers. And bombs going off every day in Iraq will not signal success or failure in Iraq. Only the Iraqis themselves will decide whether or not those who gleefully murder civilians will win in the end. Before too much longer, American troops are going to begin coming home, and Iraqis will either stand up against the terrorists or fold. But they deserve our help for now. We failed them in 1991 when we left the job undone and left Saddam in power to terrorize his own people for another 12 years. We encouraged Iraqis to rise up against Saddam and, when they did, we stood by while they were massacred. As for building a blog as nice as mine, I'm sure you can and more power to you. The one little secret about my blog, however, is that some very nice and professional people built it for me at a very reasonable price. Just visit http://www.elegantwebscapes.com/ if you want to learn more. All I did was tell them what colors I liked, what I wanted for a design and layout, and gave them a very vague concept and they built this whole thing for me in a very short time! I can't recommend them highly enough. Thanks for leaving your comment and I hope to hear from you again! Regards, David Count,

You believe the anti-war movement is persuaded by lies in the media or the "professional protesters," but you have no issue with the lies this administration disseminates on a daily basis? Let me see, should we trust a president who says things like "no one anticipated the levees would break," or should we trust our own eyes when we see the daily carnage in Iraq? I believe you should trust the objective evidence(yes, bombs going off every day is objective proof that the occupation has failed.) I think you have a great blog, however. Hope I can learn to build one as nice as yours. Peace! You seem like a reasonable person, but your leaps of logic on Iraq are astounding.
