16 - The Iraq factor

"Enough!" fueled the drive toward changing the political landscape in a nation led by an administration that created a quagmire.

Election 2006 is about truth vs. fiction. The impression many of us have is that the Bush administration lacks empathy concerning the mounting human cost in Iraq. Just 18 years ago, many of those dead soldiers were in preschool, kindergarten, and first grade.

No parent wants to raise a child to die in a war that is no longer called noble, and for a president who no longer says, "Stay the course."

The country and the whole world are looking on and expecting a change.
