awww, come on, mikis. 50/50 may not be the exact percentage, but you do know that thousands of our soldiers are being killed and TENS OF THOUSANDS are being wounded, and every intelligence agency we have agrees that their involvement in Iraq has only INCREASED the terrorist threat....
So rather than call names, why not simply admit that Bush is an awful president and his incompetent "war on terror" has made us less safe. You know it's true. We all do.....

OOOOOOOOOOK.
I am not going to compare, nor address head VS. OIF. My husband is a US Marine. He, as well as all my brothers, as well as his, are as well. Each one of them would tell you, 1st of all, they feel it is their duty to go. Whether we support, or not support the war or President, it is their duty and job to go, when called upon. One minor thing you might not know, Bush can not, with the snap of his almighty finger, send the Army, Navy, or Air Force ANYWHERE. He has to have congressional approval. He did not send them alone. The only exception are the Marines. They are called the Presidents own for a reason. He CAN send them anytime, anywhere, any way he sees fit. I feel this issue has really been beat to death. There are lots of other things going on in this world to focus on. We have children being killed in schools by crazy gun men! THEY are the helpless. THEY did not sign on the dotted line. They needed Protection. We will get out of Iraq. It is just going to take time.
And believe you me, I am sure Bush has had some head in his lifetime for crimenys sake. He was a crazy college kid at one point!!
Focus on the positive, and not the negative. We are freeing people who were inprisioned. Also, my husband does not have to "research" anything on the web, fox news, cnn, or any other outlet, he knows the statistics.
It IS NOT 50/50. Its a hell of a lot lower. Also, the highest death toll comes from friendly fire.
Just a few thoughts! Please do not take them as confrontational. I just hear all this bs so much anymore, I do not know why people dont just say, when dubya is gone...

First of all one thing that alot of people can not wrap their brain around is the fact that yes Men and Women voluntarily join the military to protect our country.
BUT it is the responsibility of CIVILIANS to make sure that these brave men and women are protected as well.Would you want your children sent into war without the very best equipment or the very best military strategy. You can still be patriotic by holding the government accountable for every Man and Woman that is killed or wounded in combat.
IT is our job to make sure that our government does everything possible to protect the men and women that protect us. As of right now we are in a war that was not in the best interest of the US. Please remember the men that attacked us on 9/11 were supported by Saudi Not Iraq.
By the way there is nothing wrong with a little sex everyone does it. Unfortunately some just do it with male children

Whats worse? The people that put up iwth all this crap and continues to let it happen again and again. Although the President is nothing more than a glorified PR man for Americas big business, we the peolple of the US must make any and every Govt official accountable for their actions. We cant do any of the stuff they do and walk away. We would be fired in a heart beat, so every politician must be accountable for every action to the people. Its the only way to stop all this crap coming from our leaders or it will only continue to happen. Sure we can vote them out soon but the US people will only put in another idiot and the soap opera still continues. We must learn and quickly. So theres always something worse

Has anybody actually died as a result of Clinton receiving head?
How many have died from the Iraq war?
Also, you seriously do have to do more research because its alot higher odds than 50/50!

Can't tell which is worse based on those criterion since I don't know if either one enjoyed those acts (can you trust a man who says he smoked but didn't inhale).
What is actually worse is a two-party system that favors the extreme viewpoints (both left & right) preventing us from getting a president and congress that is interested in solving problems instead of just getting elected.

wow, u act like this is the first war we've been in. did u know that men sign up to be in the army? voluntarily? at least this war is our war, do u remember the attack on the WTC? i dont know any other way a president would respond to that. however, i think this is being prolonged for too long, i think theres a whole gas/money thing going on, but prices are going down now so, who knows.

50/50 chance. you need to do some research. idiot. it's more like 49/50 chance of survival. that's 98% which is better than your odds of getting a high school diploma.
