An explanation
Back when I first started commenting on blogs (about three days before I started this one) I called the Iraq invasion the "Kick the dog" war, as in your boss yells at you, then you go home and yell at your spouse, who spanks the child, who goes outside and kicks the dog. I felt from conversations this phenomenon explainedwhy people so readily believed Iraq and Hussein were responsible for the 9/11 attack.
Atrios pointed too a post by Slacktivist that gives an alternate explanation. As Atrios tersely puts it, "Just go read." I believe Slacktivist puts his finger on the reason for the rage expressed by the anti-antiwar people.
