Some great positions or quotes on the Iraq war:

On the Democrat's side:
Hillary Clinton - "I would never have voted for the war had we known it would become unpopular."

Barack Obama - Will have American soldiers tell the Iraqi soldiers that they're just going out for some smokes, and then sneak back home to America.

For the Republicans:
John McCain - "The United States should no longer act as the world's police but instead as the world's stripper, dressed as the police."

Mike Huckabee - Supports God's decision to tell Bush to invade.

Mitt Romney - Would unite warring religious factions by deploying over 100,000 Books of Mormon to the nation's most fractious regions.

Ron Paul - Opposes it for some complicated libertarian reason best explained in a rambling, discursive way by your office I.T. guy.
"When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross." - Sinclair Lewis

Would've been as funny, but accurate, to say Constitutional rather than Libertarian..
