59. great- but where is the "Coalition of the Willing" Bush said existed...
Edited on Fri Oct-31-03 02:27 PM by Dr Fate
...it sure would be nice if THEY paid the 87 BILLION dollar bill, or supplied some troops- instead of taxpayers are paying for ALL of it- and our boys are shedding all the blood...

...Too bad Bush lied so much that most of the world refused to trust Bush...So he lied again and said we had a "Coalition of the Willing" that would "support" us...

Sure, it's great to get rid of Saddam- but Bush should have insisted that we share the burden, and used diplomacy to gain allies- instead he failed, and decided to lie about a non-existant Coalition of the Willing...
