"Democrats are only using the Iraq war to get at Bush"
I heard O'Reilly say that yesterday. That is so far off I can't even believe it. I oppose bush because of his agenda and his actions, not because of a letter by his name. I was never a huge bush fan, but I certainly didn't seek out places like DU before he invaded Iraq. And now Bill O'Reilly is questioning my genuineness in opposing the Iraq war? He thinks this is just some political game and I only want the democrats in the leadership because I have something to gain personally? I don't win a new car if a democrat is in the White House, if that's what he's thinking. I don't get an ambassadorship to Luxembourg. I don't get talking points faxed to me every morning so I can be a lazy ass and just read the script at work. I don't get anything except a more reasonable and fair government. We're not fakes and phonies like you. I'll tell you why I support the democrats. Now will you please be honest and tell us that you support bush because he doesn't make you pay your fair share in taxes? Only when you admit that, can we have an honest political debate.

1. Or using Bush to get at the war in Iraq
All depends on your POV. Some people liked Shrub before the war, now they don't.

And since he's branded himself with this horrible war, it seems unlikely to get rid of it without getting rid of Chimpy himself.

3. Bush used the Iraq war only to get re-elected/appointed.

5. Ok Numb Nuts O'Really, WHO wanted and STARTED this
Edited on Thu Dec-08-05 10:59 PM by rustydog
FUBAR war?
Draft-dodger Bush. Who has failed miserably in the execution of this war? Bush.
Who refuses to deviate from his carefully-crafted failure of a war plan causing the deaths of thousands of Americans? Bush

Yea, I would use the war to get at that lying fuck. You bet you gutless draft dodger. Go loofah yourself instead of any other women you may be sexually harrassing at Fox.

7. And O'Reilly is using the "War on Christmas"
to distract people from the War on Iraq.

At least the War on Iraq is real.

So, what else is new?
