Jones was the Congressman who originally coined the term 'freedom fries' and at first was a staunch advocate of war in Iraq. However since then he has had a change of heart and advocates for the Bush administration to set a timetable for the removal of troops.
I have always opposed the War in Iraq on grounds that the weapons inspectors found no WMDs and that there was a lack of international cooperation. However, I feel that now that we are in Iraq our troops must stay as long as necessary to secure the country as well as possibly to prevent Civil War or the return of Saddamites.
So who do you agree with more?
I call it the Carol Moseley Braun position, as she was the only candidate in that lousy lot of seven that were presented to the hapless democrats last time 'round that I agreed with. I, too, was very much against spending several hundred billion dollars in this way (not at all a conservative thing to do, regardless of what terms Howard "temper tantrum" Dean uses to label it.) But, like Ms. Braun said in the debates, "We American's don't cut and run. We broke it, so we fix it." Not that I often agree with the bitch, but on this particular issue, she's dead right.
