51. But I didn't like Blumrich's mislabeling:
he refered to Dubya as 'president.' ;-)

3. War is hell - and it's necessary when it's NECESSARY
Edited on Thu May-20-04 02:05 PM by redqueen
Which it WASN'T this time.

Congress voted for it because bu$h and his thugs LIED TO THEM AND TO AMERICA.

Sinkin' in yet?

:puke:

CLINTON had NO PROBLEM dealing with terrorism. Bu$h the moron spends a lot of time lately saying he can't prevent attacks. Makes you feel real safe I bet! He's just setting all the stooges up for when he allows ANOTHER terrorist attack to happen so he can avoid being a ONE TERMER like his dad was.

THANK GOD FOR DEMOCRATS!

When did Resident Moron hear about the attacks on 9/11? Why can't ANYONE involved in this most CORRUPT administration EVER answer a SINGLE question HONESTLY!?

5. You need to do some serious research.
Your facts are all wrong.

BUSH LIED AND CONTINUES TO LIE.

Google:

PNAC
Chalabi
Yellow Cake Uranium
OSP

Just a start. If you really are someone who cares about what is right and wrong, legal and illegal in this world...

9. You're nitpicking
the FACT is that nearly EVERYONE in the intelligence community AND the Pentagon was saying invading Iraq would make terrorism WORSE!

They LIED when they said Iraq was a threat to us.

LIES LIES LIES LIES LIES

Just like they're LYING about 9/11!!!!!!

17. Oh come now, you're not defending that???????
Even Condi Rice said those 16 words were untrue and "oops" she didn't know how they got in his state of the union speech.

You guys need to at least get on the same page on the "misspeaking" going on.

You guys are so disgusting, you will warp things any way you possibly can to defend your lying criminal gangster-in-chief.

Seriously, wake up and smell the coffee, pal. Bush is a complete disaster. Everything he touches turns to shit.

You want more of that?

Move. Take it to some other country. Bush is done here.

8. Powell himself admitted the intelligence was LIES
Chalabi's crap was just that - CRAP

He's a convicted crook, just like his buddies in the WH.

Too bad you've blinded yourself to reality. It WILL bite you in the ass. And soon, from the looks of things.

LMMFAO - 91? So... based on crap from THIRTEEN FREAKING YEARS AGO you gave your fearless leader (chickenhawk coward who shirked his duty and went AWOL) permission to end the lives of hundreds of our troops and drain our treasury while he gives huge fat tax breaks to the top 2 percent? LOL! SUCKER!

Generals were saying WHAT?!!!! On what planet? IIRC, GHW Bush's generals and clinton's generals and just about EVERYONE ELSE ON THE PLANET was telling stupidhead that invading Iraq would MAKE TERRORISM WORSE!

WELL GUESS WHAT HAPPENED?!

30. keep telling yourself that
Bush lied about Iraq - EVERYONE knew it, or everyone would have known it if they bothered to do their homework.

Sloganeering isn't going to work here.

"Inspection only started after we started massing troops on Iraq's border."

You have no idea what you are talking about.

"the generals were telling us that we could not wait to long due to weather concerns"

The generals were clear that containment worked, and that this invasion would be a disaster. Bush and Rumsfeld fired them. The timing was for the ELECTION, not for the weather. You'll have to do better than that.

49. Hey, whiz kid....
...the UN Inspectors also stated that they certified that Iraq had destroyed all of their WMDs in 1995. From 1995 until we illegally invaded, Iraq had been under surveillance by any and all means to include satellites, overflights, remotely piloted vehicles, foot patrols, covert ops, and any other means you could imagine. Yet, somehow, we're supposed to believe reports from the NeoCon Pentagon-based OSP that Iraq STILL had WMDs???? At what time since 1995 was Iraq NOT under surveillance by all of the means noted above???

I'd like to see the 1998 UN report you're referencing in your post...do you have a link by some chance? You also seem to forget that Bill Clinton was being fed the same crap from the Pentagon that the Pentagon has been using since Junior's crowd took control of the government in December 2001. Congress was fed the same pack of lies that was fed to everyone else.

As far as all of the European countries you mentioned, if they had truly believed that Iraq had WMDs they would have joined us, no questions asked. Do you have a link to support your assertion that all of those countries believed that Iraq had WMDs?

Junior lied through his teeth. Repeatedly. Over and over again, amen. Sadly, there are some people that still believe Junior is telling the truth. Sad....very sad.

50. We know that Iraq had chemical weapons through 1991 ...
because we'd supplied some of them when Saddam was our 'ally' -- meaning, supposed to be our puppet who would defeat Iran for us.

We suspected that Saddam might have them in 1998, despite credible reports that they had been destroyed by 1995. We didn't 'know.' We couldn't know, because the U.S.'s use of UN inspections to conduct military espionage aimed at overthrowing Saddam, prompting him to end the inspections. By 2003, we knew that Saddam did not have massive amounts of chemical weapons, because UN inspectors had so determined. Dubya and his minions lied by claiming that they KNEW that Saddam had a massive stockpile of such weapons, in militarily-useful form, ready for use; and claimed that he represented an imminant threat to the U.S. They further lied by claiming that Saddam had restarted a nuclear-arms program, basing their claims on what they knew had already been debunked as forged documents and fake reports. They lied further by the ridiculous claim that Saddam was linked to his deadly enemy, Al Qaida.

And even if all of this had not been true, we should not have massed the troops -- the UN had already reported that there was no evidence of stockpiles of chemical weapons. Once we had massed the troops, we should still have waited for the UN inspections to continue. To hell with weather concerns! That is the weakest excuse imaginable for a criminal war -- "our troops were about to get too hot in Kuwait."

Dubya and the Bushistas are a war criminals whose mismanagement of the American invasion and occupation have totally discredited U.S. foreign policy now and for years to come. Claiming that this all occurred because of 'weather concerns' might be fine for a SNL skit or a Daily Show report -- but it is ludicrous as an excuse for the murder and mayhem perpetrated in Iraq.

We need to vote Dubya out of office, pull U.S. troops out of Iraq, become signatories to the International War Crimes Tribunal, and ship Dubya and company to the Hague to stand trial for their crimes.

16. sorry pal, but there aren't any islamic extremists invading the USA who
are going to rape your wife and steal your children.

This is a total bush myth; it ain't happening. EVER.

Honey, it wasn't even al queda who perped the WTC, and you're worrying about some people who pray ferverently?

Give me a break; turn off the teevee, turn off the rabid right wing radio fear mongers who are threatening you with barbarians at the gate.

it's all a MYTH.

No one HATES america. They hate BUSH. WE are not the enemy, nor are we the target, BUSH is.

There is NO war on terror, there is NO al queda in iraq. There is no al queda threatening the USA. It's all lies and bullshit. Open your eyes, grow up and apply a little LOGIC to the scenario.

25. what flavor was the kool aid?
this war is not about islamic "terrorists" and it certainly can not be equated with WWII.

this is a bushgang-PNAC imperial war about oil, with a not-so-subtle spice of racism and religious extremism.

Fighting in Iraq has NOTHING to do with 9-11. NOTHING. All this illegal war has done is further destabilize the region and aid the terrorist recruiting effort.

28. Shrug. Another one who hasn't lived through the Vietnam era.
Forgive him.

He still believes that the government is truthful, does not lie, and engages i preemptive wars "for our own good" and to "protect us" from all the "terrorists"(who were not in Iraq because they threatened Saddam).

Very sad.

"I'm from the government and I'm here to help you." I'm sure the irony is lost on you.

Dream on. I'm sure its more comfortable than questioning the guy you obviously support in the WH.

45. Interestingly,
I don't see Islamic armies invading any American cities and Americans taking up arms to fight them off. I see us over there as the aggressors, Iraqis are doing the natural thing when an invading army slams into town. PNAC is using our armed forces as 'human shields' while Halliburton goes in to take control of their oil. If wiping them off the face of the earth, and selling the whole thing as one big fear orgy, can be done, then they're going to sell it just the way America likes it. Balls to the wall.

Are we fighting against the 'chickens coming home to roost' with regard to our foreign policy?

10. The conagra scandal
The link above would explain why Conagra folks would be pro Bush.

Here's an excerpt:


IN A SUMMER FULL OF HEADLINES about corporate misdeeds and irresponsibility, ConAgra’s massive recall in July stands apart. The defective product wasn’t fiber optic cable, energy futures or some esoteric financial instrument. It was bad meat—almost 19 million pounds of beef potentially contaminated with E. coli O157:H7, enough to supply a tainted burger to at least one-fourth of the US population.

Unlike other prominent scandals, this one does not seem to involve any falsification of records, shredding of crucial documents or deliberate violation of the law. And that makes it all the more disturbing. The Bush Administration and its Republican allies in Congress have allowed the meatpacking industry to gain control of the nation’s food safety system, much as the airline industry was given responsibility for airport security in the years leading up to the September 11 attacks. The deregulation of food safety makes about as much sense as the deregulation of air safety. Anyone who eats meat these days should be deeply concerned about what our meatpacking companies now have the freedom to sell.

etc.

"Three ConAgra salespeople have admitted to wrongly assisting Royal Ahold efforts to falsely inflate revenues by signing confirmation letters that gave inflated rebate numbers. ConAgra is one of seven companies the S.E.C. is investigating regarding this matter."

35. Will you be telling us why this war was necessary??????
I mean... we wouldn't sacrifice our troops lives for a war if we didn't absolutely have to, right?

So... what was the imminent threat?

Going to check the rotating list of LIES?! I can rattle off a few of them for ya:

- WMD's! They have drones! They're out to get us!
- UN Sanctions! Israel flaunts them at least once a week, but they're not 'swimming in oil'
- Iraqis deserve Freedom! Let's go liberate them! They'll be our best friend!
- Terrorist magnet! We can fight them more effectively if we get them all to go to Iraq!

Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it?

Who are they? Which cell do they belong to? See, again you need to get some facts Mr. Conagra. Did you graduate high school? Then you should be able to read books.

The Iraqi people are telling us to leave their country. They fight to defend their homes and families. Much like North Carolinians did during the Civil War. Remember that?

44. But you have to know he won't
Mental issues are stigmatized and so most who are able to rationalize their thinking won't seek help... they'll seek out others to reinforce their feeling that they're 'normal'.

I don't think he needs mental help. I think he needs to open his heart to God.

That's the repukes weakness -- they capitalize on the religious. They thought that by corrupting the church, they could put off the realization by the masses that they're being conned, lied to, manipulated... I think their day of reckoning is coming.

I think this abuse scandal might just wake a lot of sleeping people up. They're so comfortable in their middle class homes, with their middle class schools, going to their churches with all their friends who are equally deluded.

After it sinks in that this war was UNNECESSARY... if we can keep the issue of all the children that were sacrificed for NOTHING in their minds... we may end up with millions upon millions of Democratic voters swarming to the polls.

47. Very good points.
The comfortable folks reinforce each others delusions. So true. I remember when some new neighbors moved in right after the start of the war...I took them a Welcome cake and saw she had yellow ribbons on their lamp post. So I said I supported the troops but was against the war. She said "oh, heavens who wants war?" I said, "well, your neighbors over there in that house had a party the night it started. And the other neighbor came running outside yelling to her two young sons "Cal...the war is starting! They're bombing!" in an excited voice and they ran in to watch it together on TV, like a cool movie I guess.

I noticed she took the yellow ribbons down about 6 months ago, before we really started suffering large death toll. I want to ask her why she stopped caring, but I don't want to be rude.
