Although, I am not familiar with some of the particulars included in the letter written by Mary J. Callahan, published on October 10, 2008, I totally agree with its general theme. Regardless of the obscene reason(s) this administration had for invading Iraq, the fact remains that over 4,000 of our young men and women have died, with many more thousands being severely injured and maimed. This is a tragedy that never should have occurred. Meanwhile, from the very beginning, besides providing lip service, it does not appear that any real effort was made (or is being made) to catch Osama Bin Laden, supposedly Public Enemy Number One. And for some reason we have tolerated this behavior as we take partisan sides and react to fear-mongering. Meanwhile, we happily went shopping (until recently) as if nothing has happened. At a minimum, Bush should have been impeached for his lies, and in some way everyone involved should have to pay for their horrendous crimes against the people of this country.
