Mr. Mean,
Dude...it is a COMIC, not a policy paper. That's why there is no 'solution' to the issue.
No one has yet said why this comic is 'warped.' Please explain.
And I can't remember the last time this country was invaded, so protecting 'my' liberty is surely up for debate. You are protecting the freedom of oil billionaires, my friend usahog, and sadly they see your life as disposable. Opponents of this war, whether you see it or not, actually have you and your life in mind. We think your life is worth more than the interests of oil barons.
If you care, I come from a decorated family of veterans. WWII and Vietnam, all decorated for heroism, all loyal and brave soldiers and officers. And they all think this war is insane. Patriotic to the core, these vets fear for their brothers and sisters in the military who are being used to promote the wealth-building interests of the few. The military is not for the elite and their interests; the military is for the people and OUR interests. They aren't served in this war.
My point: opposition to the war is a way of saying you are worth more than mercenaries for billionaires. You are, and we oppose you being used by them.
And PLEASE don't tell me that this war in Iraq is about al-qaeda. That is a joke. Those guys are a threat to Sadaam Hussein's power, not natural allies. Hussein is a secular dictator, not a fundamentalist religious leader. Thus, there is a natural antagonism.
You aren't protecting our freedoms in Iraq. Iraq is a poor, third-world dictatorship on the other side of the world. I hardly see the threat. We should be fixing our economy and finding jobs for the millions of unemployed.
