I have travelled extensively as well, and the majority of Americans are against the war in Iraq, if you look at the poll numbers. I see you are new - welcome to Mommysavers. When you see my posts, if it is on anything controversial, you will find me to be the one who is quite direct, very blunt, and I do not tend to cushion my words. I support my country and I'm very proud of my nephew serving in Iraq - I just wish the war was managed properly from the beginning. Disagreeing with the war does not mean I do not support my country. That is one of the unique things about being an American - being a dissenting voice is uniquely American! And my comment on shooting while blindfolded was said when I thought that American soldiers had finally caught the guy - not that he died of natural causes. Too many civilians have been killed in this war as well.
