Liberalism is a big part of every healthy diet. Once you go with the Rethugs, you have no hope, brother, and you're bound to choke on the venom eventually.

Of course not. A big pile of greenbacks is better than revenge any day of the week. The revenge is simply the icing on the cake.

If not and if no one ever said it, then let me rephrase "Again and for the record, all I am saying is all of this no one but W and crewe wanted the ousting of SH through military action and W did it [B]in significant part because SH threatened Bush I makes for good copy . . . " Better

Yea, just ask the UN, Russia, and France - oh wait they are too bust wiping the American and Iraqi blood off of their hands and their bribe money You certainly cannot say they are all good guys in this? I think they aere worse than us because they could have possibly prevented an all out invasion - at least that is what Kerry thinks

We finally got you to admit that your Kerry theories about Iraq were wrong. You are one Rethug that I have respect for, my man.

That's nothing. At least they weren't the ones to send those American's in to kill the Iraqi's. Nice to know that you think they're responsible for that. Shrub was simply making an investment, right?

This is one case where I would endorse the use of anti-psychotic drugs.

No - there is no doubt in my mind that if Kerry or anyone else had been in office after 9/11, they would have called for the ousting of SH through military use. I mean do you think all of that call for his ousting and use of force against him to make him comply with the UN resolutions, in which we found him in material breach during the Clinton admin. was just bravada? I don't. That is why I think Kerry would have maybe done it differently, but he would have if required used force against Iraq when they ONCE AGAIN did not comply with yet another UN resolution. You are the one that is wrong - and that does not happen often so I am reveling in it

No, they did send them. They could have stopped it by giving the UN a unified front from which, according to Kerry, SH would probably have backed down. But, instead, they chose to sell us out. They knew we would go anyway. So, the deaths are on their hands just as much

Explain yout point. I am talking about SH selling oil for food oil at a HUGE discount to France, Russia, and circuitously to Kofi A. - who then resold it at market rates for a HUGE profit. That was four or so years ago until recently and that is why Russia and France refused to make SH comply with his obligations they voted for through the UN.
