we all know the democrats sent a useless bill to the white house. we all know Bush stated quite clear he will not sign a time table for the war into law. I can't imagine any service personal or their familys voting democrat.

1. Tenet said 9/12, the day after, bush and his administration wanted to go to war in Iraq even AFTER they were told Iraq had nothing to do with the war.

2. Osama bin Laden, the actual person responsible, was at Tora Bora, but bush REFUSED to go after him. I repeat, REFUSED.

3. Al-Queda is in Afghanistan. Remember them? They were responsible for 9/11? Why didn't bush finish the job? Because he was too worried about finishing something for his daddy, not about terrorism.

4. It has been proven over and over again there were no terrorists in Iraq because Saddam hated bin Laden and Al-Queda. After bush killed Saddam, whom this government placed in leadership and sold weapons to him in the first place, terrorists groups have started to go to help fractions in Iraq.

Seems to me you guys support terrorism more than you allege, huh?

They are using the, "I'll get the troops out of Iraq" ploy to get votes and not talking about stabilizing the region. It's a 'mob rules' tactic when the commanders are trying to get MORE troops there to get the job done better. They are talking about shame when the president said "Mission accomplished" four years ago. We DID oust Saddam and defeat his army. We did accomplish that mission so I don't know what they're talking about. There is a certain level we can achieve but if we stop now because 'we need to get the troops out' it'll be business as usual and the bad guys will win once again. I think we need to finish the job or wait until there's more stability. I've been there four times now and I know these people are worth it and it's worth it to help create stability there.

I'm worried that this nightmare will never end. The different factions in Iraq are locked into a civil war, and the American soldiers there are just like another faction in a sense. Hussein was definitely an evil man, but the things going on in Iraq now are even worse than the things that he did. Some people have referred to this as a vacuum of power. He should stop vetoing troop withdrawal bills and stop more American soldiers from being killed. This could go on for centuries.

After all, Hugo Chavez decided to seize control of all oil projects in Venezuella which foreign companies have invested $17 billion in, why should we allow Citgo to operate freely in the US? I wonder how Joe Kennedy would feel about us using his buddy's tactics?

People like Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs, Tucker Carlson, Joe Scarborough, Bill Oreilly, Rush Limbaugh, Michal Savage, Sean Hannity, Neil Cavuto, John Gibson, Brith Hume, etc, etc get their own "news analyses" shows where they come up with the topics. They will even admit they are not news but "news analyses" shows. They make their bias known.

What do liberals have? We got Olbermann on MSNBC, Bill Maher on HBO, and a couple of comedians on the comedy channel.

Rage Against the Machine rages:

Seven years after the quartet broke up following de la Rocha's departure, the band returned with a vengeance to close out the three-day festival east of Palm Springs.

He also railed against the war in Iraq and likened Bush administration officials to Nazi war criminals.

"This current administration is no exception. They should be tried and hung and shot," he said.

Did we not take out Iraq's entire government and destroy the regime that controlled Iraq? Did we not kill the barbaric sons of the dictator? Did we not watch that dictator swing by the rope of justice? Sorry folks we are in a post war phase dealing with insurgents. We had to do it with the Nazis and the difference here is that we have weak minded Dems who strive for power and could care less about what we need to do in Iraq to help the new government form. Fine, pull the troops and let the cave people have at it. But; WE WON THE WAR!

It seems unfair. Just because they can't walk, run, play any sports, dance, jump, or drive doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to decide who's running the country. It just means thay aren't people.
