IRAQ WAR ENDS!

Ready to come home. In case you haven't read the wonderful news, please follow this link to the New York Times.

NO END IN SIGHT

"No End in Sight" is an excellent documentary about the Iraq War. If you haven't seen it, by all means watch it. Here is the film in its entirety.

This is no cheerleading propaganda film for the war effort, so if you support the Bush war in Iraq without question, or want to continue on the same course with McCain and Palin at the helm, this film may challenge your opinions.

"Although Bush and the war continue to sink in the polls, I know from some readers that they still support both. That is their right. And if they are so sure they are right, let more young men and women die or be maimed. I doubt if they will be willing to see this film, which further documents an administration playing its private war games."
--Roger Ebert, from his review of "No End in Sight"

MILITARY MISCONDUCT?

For too long "Support the Troops" has been shorthand for "Support the War." Bush supporters have used the phrase to cut short protest, and to imply that if one opposed the war one opposed the people sent to fight it. Bullshit.

So what do these people say about Iraq veterans who oppose the war? Do they support these troops? That's a tough one.

Earlier this year, the Congressional Progressive Caucus held a meeting to hear the experience of members of Iraq Veterans Against the War. For more about the group, visit their website HERE.

Here's a news story about the group on Good Morning America.
