Okay, obviously the Iraq war has turned into a bit of--shall we say, a quagmire? I know the Democrats all want us to pull out of Iraq, but at this point, we have a responsibility to them, as well as to our own futures. This may or may not be (we know it is) the work of an incredibly selfish, unfeeling, irresponsible man who duped us into supporting a personal war; however, we're in this now and the damage can't be undone.
So, Democrats, quit promising to pull out our troops, because what if you can't right away? Then Democrats lose face in the eyes of the American people, which is not good, since the Republican party has proven its untrustworthiness already. Plus, I like Democrats--I like democracy. I like freedom and equality. I don't want you guys to dig a hole that you can't get out of when you get elected.
Just try being honest. No spin, no promises you'll have to break later. Tell us that the war is a disaster. Tell us that there's no easy way out, but that you promise that you will work to find one instead of serving your own interests. Tell us what you would do first--what are the first priorities? Obviously, it's difficult to tell at home. We hear a truckload of news stories, and we don't really know what to believe anymore. Be honest. Be open. And above all, do what we want--don't forget who's running the show here. (That goes double for you, George W Fucko.)
We're already too alienated by an administration who doesn't give a shit about us. It's time to be real with the American people: we're like a woman who's been jilted by her lover, our trust must be earned back.
