Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.

Primitive,

SOME pro war people aren't going to change their minds even though the reasons for the war have proven to be erroneous - I won't produce the laundry list. Who wants to admit they are...

Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
