Got a tip for a post?:

During Thursday's Republican debate in Florida, moderator Tim Russert asked the candidates: Was the war in Iraq a good idea and has it been worth the blood and treasure we have lost? Watch their answers their answers in the video to your right. With the exception of Ron Paul the Republicans give mind bogglingly ignorant responses. Giuliani's bullshit about not letting polls (how about the feelings of the majority of Americans Rudy?) push you around might be the worst. Whatever the flaws of the Democratic contenders, not a single one of them would try to argue now that the war was a "good idea", which makes them at least on that level preferable to any of these fools. How could they all be so out of touch?
