Even if you are opposed to the war, surely you see purposefully increasing the level of violence on our soldiers as a vile act.

Turkey is a proud country that democrats knew would react this way, and now our soldiers in Iraq will pay the price.

This question is not whether Ron Paul gets the GOP nomination or not, as Rudy will probably get it. Gallup polls already show that Rudy loses badly against Hillary in an election.

This question considers that both Paul and Clinton would get their party's nomination and would face off in an election.

Note: The war in Iraq is the dominant issue in this election. The Democrats were supposedly given a mandate over the war in the midterm election and have done nothing. So the question ends up being, "Would the public support an anti-war candidate against Hillary?"

Note: Paul said of Hillary a few day ago, “She voted for the war now she says she can’t get the troops out until 2013 and she won’t rule out a military first strike against Iran.”

Do you believe that Cheney and Addington’s push for more executive power is purely altruistic in consideration of the fight we face or do they have darker objectives?

(I am aware of The Big lie and the history of Hitler and the Nazi party’s techniques in gaining ultimate power in Germany.)

But, I was wondering, if there are any laws against younger children (babies, toddlers, young children), from even going into the room with the tanning bed. It seems like they would give off enough rays to be harmful even in the room. If anyone can help, thanks, or tell me where I might be able to find more information.

I keep seeing questions daily on how Bush lied. Could it be that he AND Clinton had bad intelligence? If you go on the attack, all you do is reveal how foolish you are. You might want to take a step back before you answer. I saw a question today on WMD's and all the Liberals who responded called Bush a liar and refused to believe that Clinton even said Saddam had WMD's. I have a link for you BEFORE you answer...

I'm afraid your right Bill Clinton was the first to coin the word WMD's and Iraq in the same sentence. It happened on December 16, 1998 in his address to the nation on operation "Desert Fox" Quote From Bill Clinton:

Operation Desert Fox, a strong, sustained series of attacks, will be carried out over several days by U.S. and British forces, Clinton said.
"Earlier today I ordered America's armed forces to strike military and security targets in Iraq. They are joined by British forces," Clinton said.
"Their mission is to attack Iraq's nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs and its military capacity to threaten its neighbors," said Clinton.

Clinton also stated that, while other countries also had weapons of mass destruction, Hussein is in a different category because he has used such weapons against his own people and against his neighbors. End Quote

If you would like to watch it follow the link below to CNN and see Bill say it in his own words.

Sorry everyone but the truth hurts sometimes
