Gimme, gimme... i want it!!

"After meeting with his Cabinet today, Bush insist[ed] 'the Iraqi people want to live in a democracy.'"

Well, people of Iraq and President Bush, lots of poeple 'want' to live in a democracy, but those among us who have matured/evolved to adulthood know that wishing doesn't make something true. For instance, I, as an American, want to live in a democracy, but I've learned, in the past five years, that you don't always get what you want. I've also learned to appreciate the grown-ups who truly understand the meaning of "public service" and, therefore, am grateful for men like Representative Murtha and Senator Feingold who are, at least, fighting the really important war these days.
