What's So Civil About War, Anyway?

Someone is starting to make a lot of sense.

Rather that fighting over whether Iraq is in civil war or not - maybe the question is better posed: So what if Iraq has a civil war? Is leaving catastrophic? Will it give Al Queda reason to cheer? (I hope they do publically, so we can see them blown to bits).

How bad would the Civil War really be? Would it affect us at all? Certainly we wouldn't want to see a Taliban like safe haven develop. What makes us think it would?

Finally a prosed opposition to Bush's policies that makes some sense. What took so long, I wonder?

Our country needed a bloody Civil War that killed 600,000 people to resolve differences that couldn't be settled in the compromises over the Constitution. Maybe Clemenza is right - a war needs to happen every now and then to clean out all the bad blood between the families.
