It wasn't just "Bush's war" though. Congress approved it. The president's military advisors said it was the thing to do. I reserved judgment at the beginning, thinking they must have access to information which we do not. I'm a pacifist in general, so it is always difficult to sit by and watch US soldiers go off to war. One of these days those could be *my* boys going to be killed. But I reserved judgment. Now I see that this war was wrong from the beginning, but I don't blame just one person.
