When are we going to pull out heads out of our asses and pull our troops out of Iraq?
What's it going to take?
Heaven help us if we have another terrorist attack in this country. Bush will clamp down so hard on civil liberties, the American people will cower in the corner, and the people of Iraq will likely suffer even more than before.
