we hope this does not mean, we have to spend billions upon billions in Iraq and then put our soldiers and Iraqis through hell for 40 years--before you realize that one is lost also. Sometimes--you just have to bite the bullet--not for prides sake, or because terrorists will follow us home (so, what if they do?) but because no one deserves their country turned into a battle ground over a war started by outsiders. If we want a war, we should fight it on our own turf and if we want to win wars on anything social--we better remember that force never changed any social system--but time and better choices do. TV, the internet and goods will do more to change Iraq than bombs and guns ever will and it will do it in less than 40 years.

WAr on drugs. War on poverty. War on illiteracy. War on terrorism. All of them waged for decades and none even close to being won. Because all are behavior and that is something that cannot be stamped out, or killed. it is a choice. Social wars are just slogans the government uses to pretend to fight a certain element, all the while profiting by tweaking some parts and repudiating others.

Drugs are still prevalent in America, with meth and ecstasy now added to the other designer drugs and old standbys such as heroin, coke and marijuana. Now, journalists can't spell and often borrow phrases and slang from ethnic cultures to describe the news. (like Bush's mojo and nappy headed hos) Still got lots of poor with the middle class steadily losing ground. And then we have the war on terror. Being instigated and fought in a country that had nothing to do with 9/11, Al Qaeda or the Taliban--but hey--all these things divert attention from the fact that our government is corrupt, out of control and not listening to us anymore.

Just think: another $5 billion more dollars into the war on drugs, and U.S. drug users will have the cheapest, purest cocaine anywhere.

the billions spent on the "war on drugs" is peanuts next to the money we spend on "locking up" the drug users.

....America will ever learn.
