5. Rebuilding Iraq? We still haven't restored it to the pitiful condition it was

under Saddam Hussein. Pottery Barn rule, indeed!

But 58 permanent bases being built for The World's Only Superpower against the will of the Iraqi government and its people? That money should be used at home to help our people, not in Iraq to keep it captive to the whims of the neo-cons and the oil barons.

We should bring the troops home, make just reparations to the Iraqis for our immoral and illegal invasion and occupation, and start rebuilding America with the funds now being thrown away on overseas adventures and a bloated and corrupt military/industrial complex.
