Why did the US invaded Iraq?
Some people will say: Because they had WMD`s! Well they did not….
Well, at least they are free from a cruel dictator! Well, like so many others…
Now, what if a “coalition of the willing”, decided to free all Americans from this lunatic named George W Bush, which many call a dictator?
-He is not a dictator! We live in a democracy! True, but Chavez who republicans call a dictator was elected while our (ouch) friend Bush was selected.
So in theory he could be consider a dictator and therefore persona non grata for mankind.
How would Americans react if such coalition decided to invade the US to free its people from Bush?
The Iraq invasion is no laughing matter. It was an immoral, illegal state sponsored terror act against a sovereign nation, yet governed by someone as crappy leader as Bush is.
Saddam received his punishment from its people. Bush will be punished by history.

"How dare you suggest that we, in the freest nation on earth, live in tyranny? How dare you call yourselves patriots and heroes? I say to you, all of you, there is nothing patriotic about hating your country or pretending that you can love your country but despise your government. There is nothing heroic about turning your back on America or ignoring your own responsibilities. If you want to preserve your own freedom, you must stand up for the freedom of others with whom you disagree, but you also must stand up for the rule of law. You cannot have one without other." BILL CLINTON

Liberals - is HE right or is his wife right? She and the current left wing kook fringe take the opposite view of Bill's.

When Democrats wouldn't know what reality is if it bit them on the backside.

I hate these kind of questions with a passion, but decided to go along with it and see what happens.

I was in the hospital last week with a viral infection and I don't have health insurance from my employer. Lucky for me I have a medicaid card that will pay for my hospital stay but there are way too many people that can't afford health insurance, their employer doesn't offer coverage, and have no means of paying for a hospital stay. All of the people running for president (on the GOP) don't want the government to be involved cause it would increase taxes and they don't want to force employers to insure their employees either. Hospitals should not be forced into taking a loss cause the patient doesn't have insurance. This is one of the few things I agree with Hillary Clinton on and normally I'm a conservative republican.

They are good at conspiracy theories, in fact many have a masters in bs theories, but to deny that terrorists, terrorism, and their hate for us is not real is a little more than tabloid material

i just feel there is a lot of lies and deception out there since 9/11....i know there was corruption all throughout the 90's when the Internet was created to the public for easy access, but since 9/11 everything seems depressed, run down, in the gutter, prices up on everything, politics and media want you to fear, just seems like a really nasty world nowadays, i want to know who what where when and how about all of this misfortune in the usa and the rest of the world, just seems unfair how the majority suffer and the minority gain nowadays, people used to revolt when this sort of stuff happened but now we got such strict laws that we are unable to stand for our own civil rights, seems like certain groups of people want to keep us in check and abide by their rules, not everybodys rules, and i really don't like how the stock market keeps going up when there really are more problems in the usa than ever before...just seems something is very silly in this wolrd and it has to stop now

Doesn't thought require more than a slogan?

Exactly how would this fight be played out in the US if not for the lie-based invasion of Iraq?

In my opinion, the U.S. is no longer the most powerful country in the world. First, consider the rising powers, like China and Russia. Currently, our govn't isn't doing so well, either, not that I'm criticizing Bush or anything.

When 4 of the 10 only have to do with obedience to an angry & jealous god, 3 are about relationship advice, and only the remaining 3 (thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, and bearing false witness) seem to have made it into our laws?

58% of Republicans are evangelical christians who believe the bible is literally true, has no errors, never contradicts itself, and is absolutely accurate regarding history and science.

Is it any wonder they continue to believe they are more moral, and a majority - when in fact they are neither?

Ok so I just heard about this "silent day". I went to their website silentday.org and I'm just curious is there a day that the pro-choice believers stand up? I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion so if you're pro-life then fine, but I'm going to be wearing a pro-choice shirt on that day. I'll make it myself I don't care.
*I posted this question somewhere else and I didn't get many answers. I'm really just wondering...do pro-choice believers have a "pro-choice day"??

Why are so many people saying they don't want to vote for a candidate that is an underdog because their vote is wasted?

how do they feel about the primary argument against the Iraq war, that is creating more terrorists? If "liberals" love terrorists so much, then shouldn't they be celebrating this fact?

Is it too much to ask since you now live in the U S A? Has the line between one's culture & national pride been crossed?

I posted a question regarding my fear that the US government does not uphold the values that make America what it was founded on and I wanted some serious advice on whether I should stay in ROTC and hope I can make a difference someday or quit (I don't have a scholarship yet and I'm not contracted yet) and try to make my difference in the civilian sector or politics. Keep in mind if I quit ROTC, I would join the reserves as soon as I graduate from college so it's not the military I'm trying to get away from, I'm just trying to find out where I would make a better difference. I was received with hostility and people accused me of being a Muslim terrorist trying to undermine the United States. And this wasn't by one person, it was by many. Am I wrong in how I feel or is there a large population of ignorant extremists on both the right and left in this country?

...in the U.S. This is addressed mostly to my fellow conservatives.

Typicaly "liberal" cities are known by names such as Seattle, Portland (OR), Los Angeles, Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Palo Alto, Berkeley, Chicago, Madison, Austin, Detroit, Washington, Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Cambridge...I think you get the idea.

The only ones of the listed cities I'd choose are:
A. New York: the thriving heart of the western world. Any cultural offering in the way of arts, cuisine, and festivities you can find in NYC. It also has a (mostly) efficient and expansive subway system.
B. Austin: "Keep Austin Weird!" It's a very original city with beautiful parkland, even prettier women, a proud population, and it's very clean.
C. Seattle: it has its own architecture, vibe, and the beauty of Mount Rainier both offsets and complements the beauty of the manmade skyline. It's like LA, except it's more drizzly, less crime-ridden and dumpy, and has more natural beauty.
