i agree that what he did was disgusting ... but that doesn't mean his execution is right, or prudent.

It is neither, in my opinion.

I've been alive during his entire reign and know full well what an evil asshole he was. Our president is no different. I, for one will not stop bashing him here on this board or anywhere else for that matter. If you don't like the subject matter, you're free to ignore it.

Thank you for your response.

Anytime. We may joke around but this board contains a very intelligent, politically aware group of people. For you to insinuate that we don't know what we are talking about is insulting and I hope you realize that.

I would like to publicly APOLOGIZE to anyone who may have been offended by anything I said/wrote.
I think the world of coming to these boards and chatting with y'all.
I was not speaking of anyone one in general... it's just that there is already so much low energy (ie, hate and dissention) in the world and I suppose I let me ego do the typing. When I said "everyone" I meant everyone everywhere... not just you guys. SORRY for any misunderstanding.
And I better end on that note.
Again... I apologize and welcome any personal notes in response. Thanks!

Alright then, let's move on. His exectuion was videotaped and is going to be disseminated amongst the Iraqi people. We'll probably get at least the still photographs with our Sunday papers.

Grisly but predictable. While the Boogeyman, oops, I mean, Osama Bin Laden, roams about. Big victory. We were pissed off at an AWOL bad guy and so we went out and killed the neighborhood bully. What a joke.

God Bless America.

for once I agree with you. Gad.

I think the only thing that's unjust about this is that we can't kill him again.

Your apology was sweet and I must say, in the main, I find myself agreeing with you a lot.....but for some reason, I dont find myself celebrating this mans death. Somehow, I get the feeling he was actually a sacrificial lamb, and even tho his regime committed atrocities, there was more stability under his rule than there is with our help
