All politicians are far removed from reality. If their sons and daughters were over there in Iraq, you can be damned sure we would have been out of there two years ago. As long as the poor continue to fight the rich politicians' battles, there will be no real sense of urgency in bringing our troops home.

I'm in favor of reinstating the draft. Then we'll see how long it takes people to take to the streets over this senseless war.
