I believe that George W. Bush wasn't justified in invading Iraq, after all there was very little substantial evidence that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. Although Bush claims that there was no way that he knew there weren't these weapons, there were critics at the time - UN weapons inspectors and U.S. intelligence officers who believed that these weapons did not actually exist.
Of course killing people is wrong and Osama Bin Laden deserves to die but Iraq has not solved our problems in the world. Bush had gambled that invading Iraq would scare North Korea and Iran into submission, when it has only made them even bolder. North Korea and Iran pursue nuclear weapons because they fear that they may become the next Iraq - that without nuclear deterrence, they are not safe from the United States. Bush needs to think clearly before he invades countries - he obviously did not think it through before launching the war. We have depleted a large proportion of our cruise missiles so now, it is very difficult to continue "cowboy" diplomacy with rogue nations.

you know, nowadays you can't have a bad president without everyone finding out. this is the way america works. terrorists kill a certain number of our people, we kill a thousand times the number of their people. and imo george bush isn't the worst president.
what about nixon? horrible, horrible president. he got elected cuz he said he would end the Viet War (which btw was a pointless war and we were basically the bad guys.) but i digressed.
so. nixon gets elected, and he kills many more communist Viets before he sends troops outta Vietnam. but instead of bringing them home, he makes them mess Cambodia up cuz they had a feeling Cambodia would turn Communist.
iight, so who (or what) is the real villain? george bush? or just the american mentality? i mean, im sure most of the country feel happy that millions of middle eastern people are killed (although i'm not one of them.)

Bush is up to 2600 I thought...and it just goes to show you how far our once proud nation has fallen when you can compare the President with the world's worst terrorist. the last time that was done was during Andrew Jackson's Presidency. If only the dang voting machines had be fool proof...here's some links for you to check out:

Our Government is of the mindset that ordinary citizens are not capable of understanding their complex decision making, So they share with us the rules of the game they are playing.
It doesn't matter who is keeping score, You can't referee a game if you don't know the rules.

Now why would you go and screw up a perfectly good argument by using a word like 'raghead'?
