As Iraq becomes a memory

I barely even think much about what goes on in Iraq these days, though clearly a lot of that has to do with the now apparent pointlessness of it all.

Check out a recent entry from the Iraqi blogger, who quotes an American soldier working there.

While Saddam was a bad man who needed to be removed, what was our reason for getting involved, spending billions and getting our boys killed? I sure hope it wasn't those weapons of mass destruction, because we still haven't found those. Hell, the exhibition of force hasn't deterred violence in the region either.

This is going to bite Bush in the ass come election time. It's a shame that the Democrats don't have any candidates worth voting for. Looks like another unremarkable election next year!
