Speak for yourself
Yeah right. Thousands of innocent civilian men, women and children die in pursuit of non-existent weapons of mass destruction. That's your idea of looking "pretty good?!?"
These individuals are no more deserving of dying than the thousands of souls we lost on September 11th.
Perhaps we look better than we could have looked had more innocent civilians died. But to these people and their families, I don't think things look particularly good at all.
These are human lives we are talking about, Tom. There is nothing "pretty good" about it.
