"War on Terror" is the same thing as "Stay the Course", or "Just Say No", or "Zero Tolerance". It's catchy lingo that politicians use to describe some kind of plan of action that only really works in newspapers and on tv and has no real basis in our own current living experience. What the "War on Terror" is to me right now is actually a war that America is having with it's own self. If America is serious about freedom and sovereignty and democracy in Iraq, than it's only real solution is to get out of there and let Iraqis decide what to do and how to live. Without the American leash. If we want them to be truly free, than the only thing we can do is to leave, in the end. But now I'm digressing.

These catch phrases are supposed to encompass major things, but in reality, people aren't "Saying No", and the silly "Stay the Course" idea is wearing out it's welcome.
