Why the Iraq war was wrong, and where it may get us

Mitsu recently posted (reposted, he said), his reasons against the Iraq war. He is so cogent on these points that all I can say is, what he said.

I can hardly articulate my own political thoughts these days. Painful position for this once-upon-a-time activist. Used to think I had all the answers.

With friends who agree, it's little comfort to just nod our heads at each other and look tense. And with folks who agree with the war, or Bush or American's current direction overall, there is no talking.

Since being laid off from my last steady job in March 2003, I encounter such folks a lot less in my daily life . Mainstream office culture was a messy melting pot of opinion.
