Texting
I've seen first hand as a emergency medical responder the consequences of texting and driving, especialy among teenage drivers. Car crashes happen everyday, I cant prove it but when most people I pull out of a car still have their fucking phone in their hand I guarantee they we're either texting or on the phone when they hit someone.....We dont realize how long we take our eyes off the road when we're texting, and anyone who has teenage kids know they are constantly texting......I'm typing this out of extreme frustration because I'm seeing these kids die, or kill other people because of these damn phones, .......PLEASE! TEACH YOUR TEENAGERS NOT TO TEXT AND DRIVE!......No matter how important it may seem, that messege is not worth your life or someone elses...........

- Olivier, I think you are comparing apelps and oranges as well as applying 20/20 hindsight to history. Also, as you implied in your reference to Richard III. Peace was back in England for a time. I wish I shared your optimism, but I don't. Sure, this war will bring a temporary peace to the area. But long-lasting peace will not be so easy, and historically, the US has a very poor track record in its nation-building (um, they did prop up Saddam for a loooong time afterall). Plus, the anger that America has stirred in the hearts of many folks around the world including extremists willing to die for their cause will not be sated simply because America was successful in overthrowing the Iraqi government.I certainly think Saddam is/was a horrible person, but preemptive strikes are a bad precedent for ANY nation. Now China has an argument for invading Taiwan. North Korea has an excuse for invading South Korea. And India and Pakistan now can rationalise preemptively striking one another.Where will it end?
