I don't know about age-related differences on this issue. I'd be surprised if it's that cut and dried.

I personally am quite conflicted. On the one hand, I certainly don't disagree with the concept of going over and rooting Saddam out. On the other hand, I think after we do we're going to have a lot of trouble on our hands that a lot of politicians are downplaying. And I think Bush has really done a horrible job with our image in the international community which, like it or not, is important.

I also think we'd have many fewer problems with mideastern countries in general if we would have acted following the oil crises of the 70s to wean ourselves from needing so much oil.
