Republican presidential contenders voiced support for the Iraq war Wednesday night despite a warning from anti-war candidate Ron Paul that they risk dragging the party down to defeat in 2008.

"Even if we lose elections, we should not lose our honor," shot back former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, "and that is more important than the Republican Party."

Apparently, Huckabee lost more than 110 pounds when he slimmed down from the fat man he once was - he lost his common sense.

Where is the honor is starting a war based on deliberate lies and greed?

Where is the honor in causing the deaths and maiming of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi citizens and the exile of more than a million more?

Where is the honor in the deaths of nearly 4,000 U.S. service personnel and the maiming of thousands more?

Where is the honor in draining the U.S. Treasury while millions of Americans, including children, cannot afford health care?

Where, indeed.
