20. I wasn't here on DU when it happened.
But from my Brooklyn apartment, up until I closed my the bar on my shift during 9/11, a large majority of us had only one thing to say to him.

We knew we were going into Iraq after the 2000 elections. We had talked about it during the lead-up to the elections. But once SCOTUS appointed him, we knew it was only time that we made our way into Iraq. And then 9/11??? God those conversations were intense behind the bar in Brooklyn. We knew what was coming and we were fucking scared.
