Today, Hillary's guy said that we are involved in two wars. Is it as he says, or is it one war against terrorism in two major theaters?

There is no war. There is only force. That's what Congress authorized. Force.

Exactly. The "war" was over shortly after it began as Iraq had almost no military. Since then, it has been insurgent violence we have been at battle against. It is not a clearly defined enemy since it is not a nation, military organization, or even people from the same groups.

Right now, we are continuing to apply force. The only looming war is with Iran, and hopefully Bush won't be dumb enough to sink us into a new debacle when we can't even sweep up the floor of the one we are currently dealing with.
