[MLB-WIRELESS] [OT] WE GOT HIM

[Giles Pollock]

Oh i could make such a mess of this :D

I think all ill do is remind everyone that the number of people who have died 
in the iraq war is a drop in the ocean compared to those who have died in 
previous wars such as World War I and II, to call Howard a traitor and the war 
illegal makes the entire argument, from both sides, look very petty.
