Ending the war

Recently a huge anti-war group stopped trying to cut funding for the war because they are now aware we are too far into the war to pull out now. Instead the groups are trying to prevent Bush from making a long lasting agreement with Iraq which may mean we will have troops in Iraq for many years. I think this is a really great thing that these groups are doing. The groups were not being very succesful in blocking funding for the war so they decided to try stopping Bush from doing another terrible thing. The groups are still fighting the funding of the war which is great because the US is spending eight to ten billion dollars a month. Imaging what our country could do with that extra money!

Wow Mikey, this is really an awesome post on a really interesting and important conflict. I think that what this group is doing is great, because it seems apparent to me that they actually care about their cause, and didn;t just give up like so many other groups. They've even changed their approach to try to achieve success and have really researched what they're fighting against and it seems they even know how they'd fix the situation if they were in control. We need more groups like this that are more flexible in their approach and less stubborn in trying to achieve the same thing over and over again yet failing every time. Again great post, keep it up.
