I found this link through a friend and thought it was an interesting read. Before the nitpickers come out, it is NOT news reporting, it is op-ed but I think it could be a starting point for some reconciliation between some pretty polarized stances. I was never a big supporter of the US's invasion of Iraq (from my lofty perspective of my house in South Calgary when it happened or from my equally lofty perch 20 miles SE of Pittsburgh now) but at one time I believed that Canada should stand with the US on it, for a couple reasons (but thats a whole other discussion).
Part of me is wondering is Matt Miller for real in this piece or is he pandering to the fact that a large majority of Americans think Iraq was a mistake? The thoughts he voices are convincing but so was a lot of the pre-war posturing...
