This is what democracy looks like?

I can imagine using the phrase "Axis of Evil" and "seriously" in the same sentence, but that isn't it. We wasted time and money and resources and lives going after a country that wasn't a threat to us, and now we have fewer options for dealing with Iran and North Korea -- the one with ties to Al Qaeda, the other building nuclear weapons. Maybe the "conservative" thing to do would have been to worry about these things before we decided to bring democracy to the Middle East.
