3. Yep, & everything else BushCo claimed has to have these words...
added to the end of each claim:

... In 1988.

Repeat after me:

He gassed his own people... In 1988.

He had mass graves... In 1988.

(We took that task over for him, you know.)

4. Will this hurt the teflon idiot?/
Probably not because his supporters either won't listen to this or they rationalize his actions because they think Iraq was behind the attacks on 9/11 and from the mouth of a friend, who might not be a friend now, "It's better that we take the war to the terrorists rather than their attacking us here." But, I said they didn't attack us! Well, needless to day, she didn't want to discuss it because she said she knew that I could out argue her on the point, but she has a "gut" feeling that voting for Bush is the right thing to do.


I think with my head and vote for the smarter choice. I feel with my heart and gut because the thoughts of this war do affect my internal organs. So maybe my gut tells me Kerry is the right one, but I thought he would make a good president when I heard him on TV 10+ years ago. Now, I think even more so that he will make a good president.

8. AFP: bush* Unrepentant!!!

US to admit no WMDs in Iraq, but Bush unrepentant

<snip>
At an election speech in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Bush reaffirmed his insistance that the invasion had been right. Without mentioning the report, he said there was a "real risk" that Saddam would give weapons of mass destruction to terrorists.


"After September 11, America had to assess every potential threat in a new light," Bush said. (There He Goes Again!!!!)


"We had to take a hard look at every place where terrorists might get those weapons and one regime stood out: the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein.
"We knew the dictator had a history of using weapons of mass destruction, a long record of aggression and hatred for America. He was listed by Republican and Democrat administrations as a state sponsor of terrorists.


"There was a risk, a real risk, that Saddam Hussein would pass weapons or materials or information to terrorist networks. In the world after September 11, that was a risk we could not afford to take."
