Mary Jane you think there is positives coming from Iraq like what?The people there are worse of now than they ever were under Saddam.The only people who are better off in Iraq are the ruling class who have pocketed millions of American tax payers money.As far as Saddam being a psychotic dictator he is no worse than the other dictators in this world right now and i dont see America trying to get rid of them.Maybe because they dont have a shit load of oil.Yes there are things more important than money how about spending 1-2 billion dollars a week on education,health care,fixing your infrastrucure instead of a pointless war........
