14. OK here are the rest of my answers.....Disregard the first bunch
Edited on Thu Sep-25-03 07:32 AM by RapidCreek
and read these. The dang board went wonky on me after I decided to add the rest and not go to bed and dumped my edit. Glad I saved it on note pad before posting!!!

1. Since George W. Bush is evil, and thought by some to be far more dangerous than Saddam Hussein, could you please list the instances you are aware of where George W. Bush has ordered the murder, torture and rape of American citizens, like yourself, who oppose his presidency.

Can't. Since the advent of the Patriot Act I most probably won't be able to, as it's intended purpose is to prevent such knowledge from becoming public. Why do you ask? Of what relevance is this question?


2. Could you list any sites of mass graves of American citizens ordered to be killed by the Bush administration?

Sure. Arlington Cemetery. Then again...there may be more but the Patriot Act would prevent such knowledge from becoming public. Why do you ask? Of what relevance is this question?


3. Further, could you please list the instances you are aware of when George W. Bush has ordered the murder of members of his own family.

No, unfortunately. So much for voluntarily skimming your turds from the gene pool. Why do you ask? Of what relevance is this question?


4. Do you feel that Saddam Hussein possessed no weapons he was specifically forbidden to have by the UN; for example, the Scud missiles he fired into Kuwait during the first two weeks of the war?

Yes. Your example makes clear your ignorance concerning an issue most anyone with even a cursory knowledge of the war possesses. Saddam Hussein didn't fire any scud missiles into Kuwait during the first two weeks of the war. Perhaps you should educate yourself, if your intellectual capacity allows it. If not, perhaps you should keep your mouth shut, as fighting a battle of wits while unarmed is always a losing proposition.


5. How do you think Saddam was able to fire weapons that he didn't have?

In the same fashion that you engage in what you have mistaken as a battle of wits, while clearly unarmed.


6. Are inspectors inspectors, or are inspectors detectives?

Inspectors are inspectors as long as those who employ them expect them only to inspect. Are detectives detectives or are detectives inspectors? Are lier's lier's or are lier's exaggerators?


7. How many more months would you have given Saddam Hussein to comply with the 17 UN resolutions, passed over 12 years?

The same number of months we have given Israel to comply with the 69 UN resolutions, passed over for 56 years....even though we haven't given Iraq $84,854,827,200.


8. If you owned an apartment building, for how many months would you allow a tenant to defy you to kick him out for not paying the rent he owes?

Is this an example of your ability to posit a False Analogy Fallacy? Here is an accurate analogy. If you owned an apartment building, would it be legal for you to send your tenants kid to shoot the land lord, and convicted felon, who owned the building next door, because you believed him to own a hand gun? Look up the word fallacy. Once you comprehend what one is...try and avoid presenting them. More and more you sound like you swam over from the shallow end of the gene pool....you know, the end AWOL George is from.


9. If the UN, and the previous administration, were convinced Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, and used that as a basis for their actions against Iraq, how do those reasons evaporate when applied by the Bush administration?

You have presented another False Analogy Fallacy. The previous administration did not use their conviction that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction as a basis to invade and occupy Iraq. As the case you presented was fallacious, the respective question you pose is, in fact, irrelevant to the conclusion you suggest.


10. If the Bush administration, led by the evil GWB, lied about weapons of mass destruction in order to go to war, why haven't we found any WMD secretly planted by the Bush administration?

My you are fond of posing fallacies aren't you? You have presented a non-sequitur, or in more specific terms, a transposition of a condition and its consequence. Since, once again, your question is fallacious, it cannot be logically answered. Here is a question for you. If the weapons were secretly planted, how would you know that the Bush administration planted them? Here is another. If secretly planted weapons of mass destruction (and I am not sure that they haven't been secretly planted) were found, then how would you know whether Bush lied or told the truth?


11. If you feel it would be too difficult to plant WMD in Iraq, because there are too many people watching, such that no one can do anything sneaky in Iraq, then why can't we find Saddam?

I don't necessarily feel it would be too difficult to plant WMD's in Iraq. Particularly if they were planted before the war. Then again there is a little bit of difference between 4 tons of VX, 25 tons of Anthrax, 2800 tons of Mustard Gas, 210 tons of Tabun Gas, 795 tons of of Sarin Gas and a guy with a sheet over his head. What makes you think we haven't found Saddam? Rumsfeld was shaking his hand while he was gassing the Kurds...you figure they're not pals anymore?


12. Do you disagree with the statement..."The weapons of mass destruction used in the 9/11 attacks were box-cutters"?

Yep I do. There weren't any weapons of mass destruction used on 9/11. In that you mentioned it the box cutters were used by Saudi Arabians and an Egyptian that were funded by Saudi Arabians....what's this got to do with Iraq or Saddam Hussein? Do you agree that Sammie Sosa is a baseball player?


13. Do you think finding an airplane fuselage in a terrorist training camp in northern Iraq means terrorists were practicing hijackings? If not, for what purpose do you think they were using the airplane?

A better question might have been...."Do you think not noticing a 707 airplane fuselage lying around in US controlled Northern Iraq, the portion US and British Military fighters, bombers and recon jets had been patrolling for ten years, was a bit strange? You tell me...


14. Knowing what little you may know about spy satellites, what do you think Iraq was hiding using the tunnel-digging equipment they bought from the French some 5 years ago?

Gee I don't know....probably the same thing we hide with tunnel digging equipment in the US.


15. Why do you think Iraq had a 'Higher Committee for Monitoring the Inspection Teams' headed by Hussein's Vice-President, and son, Qusay?

Gee, I suppose because it is their country and they can do what ever the hell they want to do, as it regards their security. I suspect it had something to do with the CIA getting nailed for covertly using U.N. weapons inspectors to spy on Iraq in from 1991 to 1998. In 1996, the CIA used its inspection spies to aid a coup attempt by a group of exiled Iraqi generals who were part of the Iraqi National Accord (INA). Put the shoe on the other foot...how would the US react if Iraqi's pulled the same shit on them?


16. The fact that Iraq trained experts to foil UN weapons inspectors is documented not just by U.S. intelligence organizations, but by those of many other countries. Why do you think Iraq needed to use these tactics, if George W. Bush is lying?

See answer 15


17. In 1995, Iraq admitted it had biological weapons. They declared they had, for example, 8500 liters of anthrax. Where did they all go? If Iraq destroyed them, why would there be any need for more UN resolutions after that?


Where did it all go? Well if they destroyed it, my guess would be up a smoke stack. As to the second part of your question, all I can say to that is, why indeed. I suspect to give the US and Britain an excuse to occupy Iraq and control the export of their oil. Here is something for you to prove...prove you never fucked a dog in the ass.


18. When do you think Iraq abandoned their existing Weapons of Mass Destruction program? What do you think was their motivation for abandoning it- the 17th time the UN said 'pretty please', or the fact that it was spending too much money that could used for social programs to improve the lives of Iraqi citizens?

Might have had something to do with ending the sanctions they suffered under for 10 years. The ones which resulted in the deaths of a million or so innocent Iraqis, half of which were children.


19. Do you think the bio-weapons lab vehicles found in Iraq were being used as lunch wagons, or as mobile auto detail trucks?


I think they are what the Brits, from whom they were purchased, said they are...stations with which to fill weather balloons. Incidentally they weren't vehicles, they were trailers covered with rotting canvas....the contents of which had become rusty and weathered....hardly the sort of thing one would want to brew deadly concoctions in.


20. If a terrorist organization attacked America tomorrow by spraying anthrax over a large city, would you blame George W. Bush for not doing enough?

Since he seems quite a bit more interested in asking congress for money to "rebuild" Iraq than he is in asking them for money to protect our "homeland"....absolutely, I would. After all the idiot just killed 6000+ innocent Iraqi's...I'm guessing that one or two of their relatives or friends might react like the average American and go looking for a little revenge.


21. Would Hillary?

Probably not.....she gave the AWOL little asshole the greenlight to wage war unchecked....what the hell can she say about it now?


22. How many minutes after the attack do you think it would take for Hillary to appear on CNN?

Man you seem to be obsessing about Hillary. Do you do this alone at night in your bedroom or are you still locking yourself in the bathroom at mom and dads house?


23. If an illegal U.S. president declares an illegal war, wouldn't the two cancel each other out?

I guess the way I learned addition...is that two negatives add up to a negative...you know...-1+-1=-2. Maybe you neocons are still counting on your fingers and that concept is a little difficult to figure out.
