we get photos of flag burning incidents at Abu Ghraib
and people throwing snowballs at the presidential

Tragically, the lack of accentuating the positive in
Iraq serves two purposes:
It is intended to undermine the world's perception of
the United States
thus minimizing consequent support,
and it is intended to discourage American citizens.

I would but even if every last person, except the Bush gang, signed it, Bush still wouldn't even look at it. Look at the Hamilton Baker report, totally ignored.

No. I have friends that are marines and they don't want to come home til their mission is completed. Don't believe everything you hear in the media about soldiers giving up on the war. Instead of a Petition how about sending letters of thanks to our troops.

Yes I would or to impeach Bush. The war was started on lies with lies in the middle and it will end with lies.
