Two back to back Presidents of the United States who say Iraq was a threat and support the War. One Democrat & One Republican.

Or Should I listen to MoveOn.org, Al Qaida, Daily Kos, Sean Penn and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who say the war is 'illegal' and blame America?

(CNN) -- 2004 -- Former President Clinton has revealed that he continues to support President Bush's decision to go to war in Iraq but chastised the administration over the abuses at Abu Ghraib prison.

"People can quarrel with whether we should have more troops in Afghanistan or internationalize Iraq or whatever, but it is incontestable that on the day I left office, there were unaccounted for stocks of biological and chemical weapons."

-Bill Clinton on "Larry King Live" 07/23/2003

Sensible answers only please. I include a link to my previous question (apologies if you've already answered) about what weapon the soldier is firing from the hip at 5:00-5:07; a .50 cal seems to be the agreed weapon but I have never heard of them being fired from the hip like this before- I thought they were much to heavy and recoil was a wrist-breaker?

Thanks!

It still has that kackle that sends chills down people's spine. Then it tries to become serious and angry sounding as if trying to be assertive. Oh well, just an observation.

I was reading the BNP manifesto and they want to "stop the persecution of the motorist" by scrapping speed cameras. Surely, a party that wants better punishment for criminals should not let people get away with speeding. Surely, the logical route for them is to increase the speed limits on our roads?
May be I am not at the same intellectual level as the BNP policy writers!

I'm an Independent from NYC, in no way will I vote for Hillary Clinton, I feel she is fake, phoney and has done nothing for NYC.

Not sure who i will vote for but it wont be her...Really dislike how she stayed with Bill during all his cheating, makes me wonder about her.

If I was to lntroduce a flat rate of income tax of 10 - 15% encourage the use of private healthcare, schools through a voucher system or subidies. privatise any new roads to be built and allow free trade and foreign ownership and investment

Who wants to bet how long he'll last there until Malcolm Turnbull throws knives behind his back? Lol, Labor must be thrilled at this!
(Julie Bishop is deputy opposition leader, if you haven't already heard.)

I have a feeling the Liberal leadership will be like the John Howard/Andrew Peacock battles of the '80s...

I've heard the argument that since criminals will have guns "no matter what" private citizens need guns to protect their families. Studies and statistics show that a gun in the house is much more likely to kill a friend or family member than to be used on an intruder. So what is it that makes them so appealing?

Don't more guns equal more shooting? Pointing a gun at a criminal seems like it would make them more likely to react violently, if only in self-defense. Easy accessability means that there are more casual criminals and spontaneous shootings.

Personally I'm not as worried about hardened criminals as I am about being shot by someone who wields a gun like a toy. It's a highly efficient instrument of death that because of our current laws can be picked up by any disgruntled high school outcast or paranoid trigger-happy neurotic. Aren't there other ways to keep your family safe? Are they really that unsafe to begin with? Maybe I just haven't lived in a bad enough neighborhood.
