This is what I don't understand: All of a sudden nothing seems to matter.

First, they said they wanted Bin Laden "dead or alive." But they didn't get him. So now they tell us that it doesn't matter. Our mission is greater than one man.

Then they said they wanted Saddam Hussein, "dead or alive." He's apparently alive but we haven't got him yet, either. However, President Bush told reporters recently, "It doesn't matter. Our mission is greater than one man."

Finally, they told us that we were invading Iraq to destroy their weapons of mass destruction. Now they say those weapons probably don't exist. Maybe never existed. Apparently that doesn't matter either.

Except that it does matter. I like how she articulates that:
Bad is our government lying to us and acting reckless, dangerous, and anti-American.
Really Bad is that we don't, as a society seem to care enough to do something.

Judging by the webserver logs here, most Americans care more about who "The Bachelor" picked and what Hillary Duff looksl ike naked, than they do about Iraq (for or against the war).
