FC #2

I picked only Democrat because I am a Democrat. For the upper senator and lower senator, I picked one that is known or famous that people were familiar with. I also looked at their stats such as legislation, news, etc,. I check my FC everyday and I fired the one that don't perform well, specially if they have poor attandence.

Entry 1: War in Iraq?????

The most pressing issue in American politics and government today are war in Iraq.
I have chosen this specific typic to discuss because Bush made a huge mistake to go to war in Iraq. So, what do we got out of war in Iraq ? Thousands of service personel lost their life due to the insurgency. Who got what? when and how? I think Bush was trying to bully Iraq and tried to show the world that USA is the major super power nation. In return, Bush is draining billions of taxpayers hard earn money to use in a worstless war. We are so responsibly tied in Iraq that Bush probably do not know how to pull back and when to stop.
"Who gets what , when and how". In this case "who" is Bush and "what" is oil.
"When" makes how long will it takes to drain all the oil out of Iraq and "How" long it will take bush to do it. First of all, the war should have never started. I want to see all the US military come back home. Spend the money on education instead of defense.
