Is it ok to lie to the American people to start a war?

Question

and to award no bid contracts to political friends? Where the hell are the heroes in congress on this ? ....the American people are being raped........and even more sickening the religious right applauds it (like they did when Jesus was crucified)

Answer 1

Only if its the Best Interest of your Friends and Base, then it's OK.

But you have to have Good Justification, or Good Reason.

But if you can't find one then Make one up and if you get caught in a LIE just say it's not my fault It was faulty Information.

And if they still riding your Back just keep say September 11, and 911. Or have your friends Bash the opposition and say well he's doing a better Job than the Dem. would have down.

Answer 2

There are so many sickening things that this illegal war that it is beyond words. There were many Democrats who opposed the war back in 2002. They are the true American heros. I can name a couple for you: Byrd of WV, Murray of WA, and Dean in Vermont. Yes, the incredibly massive profits from the bid contracts were a key incentive for the war [refer to Eisenhower's warning concerning the military-industrial complex made bac in 1961 -- There's another hero: Eisenhower]. But more sickening is how the Republicans are so eager to send other people's children to die in a war that was clearly unwinnable years ago. The fact that America has stopped being a beacon of a freedom to a hypocritical torture-using nation is even scarier. It is very similar to when the Roman Republic gave up its values and became the Roman Empire. I am shocked to have witnessed the same transformation in my lifetime. You know, another good question is whether the US will ever regain its sense of decency and return to respecting civil rights at home and human life abroad. Or is the era when the US was loved and respected for its espousal of liberty and freedom over forever?

Answer 3

hey stupid. no one lied. we already found over 500 weapons of mass destruction. are YOU qualified to do what halliburton does? is some friend of yours qualified? no. only two companies on the planet do this kind of work, and the other company is french. we should give the contract to them???? no bid contracts are ALWAYS awarded in emergency situations. ever had a water main break and flood the street? well do you think all the qualified contractors should spend a couple weeks figuring out the costs and submitting a bid? all the while the street continues to flood, and no one in town has water. no, you imbecile, a no bid contract is awarded. this gets the job done quickly, and the profits are limited to a certain percentage.

Answer 4

screen name of Tough as Hell and you whine like a Baby, without any facts at all. Easy to complain without doing any research. Billy Bob was President we had the bombs in the World Trade Center, The Cole Bombing,The Embassy bombing. Dead Americans in all three. Democrat response. Get a new cigar for your intern and try to define what the word is, is! 8 years of negotiations in the Middle East by Billy Bob and Isreal gives up territory to Palistine, opens the west bank, moves their people out of the settlements, Millions of US dollars in Humanitarian aid to Palistine and what did it accomplish? Hamas and Hezbollah attack Isreal and OSB drops some 747's on the Trade Center and the Pentagon

Answer 5

you don't have your facts right. Congress approved the action of war. and there were only one or two who didn't. SO dig it....that means the demorats agreed and they had the exact same information BUsh had. SO why don't you go whine to them and all thier liberal friends on why they voted that way and also ask, if they saw the same stuff bush did. Exicuse me, but the religious right, weren't even in existance when Our Lord was crucified. So, it goes to show you don't have all the facts and so you're igonorant on the subject.

Answer 6

Does anyone know why they paint "COW" in BIG red letters on the side of every cow in Texas??

Because the President and Vice President hunt there LMAO 8-)

The Religious Right got what they deserve. They Voted for a Cowboy from Connecticut.... who's Grade point average is C+ (if you can believe that). He doesn't even know where he is most of the time! The Vice President is even worse........WTF .....does anyone know anyone who "SHOT" one of their own hunting party...DUH!

This country is being run by DIMWITS. I didn't like the fact that Billy Clinton got a Hummer in the White House but, if we could get him back, I'd pay for 50 hookers to blow him! 8-)
His morals might have been in question but his intelligence was not! He was a Rhodes Scholar..............someone smart enough to run a country!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Willlyy and his Kangaroo can't even run to the local store without forgetting why they're running there LOL

Answer 7

Your question is well thought. Sadly it has been the case in many wars.
I can imagine you are upset and yet, even we don't know the truth because we don't have all the information.
It would be nice if congress would pay more attention to things like your concern than what they presently get absorbed into.

Answer 8

It is not OK to lie, whether it is a small or large lie. When President Bush said that God talked to him he was right. Not the God that you and I think of, but his God. In the Bible, it says that Satan is the God of this world> Satan is the Father of all lies, small and great. Well,he sure BUSHWHACKED us. It was a horrible thing to lie to the American people just to have your agenda fulfilled. Let me tell you that wealthy people see us from different social stations, as nothing but commoners.Our military has lost alot of fine individuals. Many thousands are maimed, many have psychological problems. Do you really think the Elite care? They endanger the common people, but never their own.

Answer 9

No, it's not OK to lie to the American people to start a war. Good thing no one did, huh? You, sir, don't have a clue so I won't bother trying to answer your other absurdities. Enjoy your lies if it makes your life easier.

Answer 10

If there were any real hero's in congress, they would have stepped up and exposed our government. These are the people we elected to represent us?? Its scary and frustrating!
