So now I see an article on "the terrible plight of women in Afghanistan" and how there have been a bunch of new laws "suddenly" enacted there to denigrate them further..


*drum roll*


spurring american support for invasion.


One blogger responded that in spite of how tempting the bait was, he in fact didn't see any improvements in life conditions for women while their country was embroiled in war...quite the contrary.


And women's conditions in some countries in Africa and Southeast Asia are absolutely horrific.  Yet for some reason we don't feel compelled to invade those countries...odd? :confused:

:rolleyes:


The new public whip has flaws.  How will public sentiment be whipped up for expensive wars when so many people can think for themselves now and see into the future.  We've all been forced to look ahead budget-wise...the one way people can be depended on to have 20-20 vision.  It's a real bugger it is..I don't envy the spindoctors.  They've go their work cut out for them.
