Another 18 American troops died in Iraq today. Not ONE of them found a weapon of mass destruction.
Isn't Bush's deployment of new troops to Iraq just a stop-gap measure to replace the troops he has killed in his hunt for weapons of mass destruction?

still stuck on that whole WMD thing, huh? That was one small part of the entire reason for the war. As far as the WMD's though, what do you think Saddam used to gas the Kurds? The Iranians? Beer farts?
If you rob a bank, get caught on camera but escape... if the police come to arrest you, but can't find the money, does that mean you didn't rob the bank? Or that there was no money?
Also, are the WMD's you refer to the same ones that I can send you page after page of Bill Clinton talking about? Albright talking about? The UN talking about? Hillary talking about? Clinton bombing Iraq numerous times over? Are those WMD's one and the same or are we talking different ones?
During Clintons years we wwhere attacked over.and over.and over. Each one a little worse, culminating in Sept 11, which was planned, trained for, financed etc all during clintons years. 5 plus years later...nothing. Must be doing something right.

Since invading i know iraq is even more dangerous as is many other nations wanting revenge. if anything the terrorists are joining up more where as less are joining the the army. Id also like to point out the fact that since the UK helped america find...or in this case not find WMD we have had more terrorist threats then ever not forgetting Spain and the madrid bombing and the terrorists caught in italy. So while your America might be a bit safer in the fact that saddam no longer has WMD that couldnt reach past one nation never mind the atlantic Id like you all to think of the Civilians in other nations that have suffered not to mention the 650,000 civilians in Iraq. im sure there relatives will send a get well card to America once they have a mailing service again :oD
have a nice day

How is it that little people like you are not able to turn a corner in an argument. The WMD issue has been bantered back and forth for three years, or more. I am perfectly satisfied with the information that has come forward, that Saddam did have WMD's and had them flown to Syria for safe keeping. This fits Saddam's MO, because he did the same thing with his air force during Desert Storm, only then, he flew them to Iran, never to be heard from, again!
The information about the Syrian excursion has been verified by a former Iraqi general who wrote a book about it and other issues pertaining to Saddam and Iraq.
The fact that you jumped at the opportunity to blast GWB when eighteen of our sons and daughters were killed in a chopper mishap, reminds me of the cub tv reporter who, upon hearing about the JFK assassination, set up shop outside a movie theater who's patrons were about to come out, so he could catch them by surprise, and let the tv audience see their spontaneous reaction, when told of Kennedy's death. I wonder what ever happened to that reporter?
Shame on you for using this incident to make some sleazy political statement! It appears that you and Rahm Emanuel get your ideas from the same playbook.

Haven't you come up with a better mantra yet?
If you want to start pointing fingers about who killed the troops, lets look real hard at people like John Murtha and the rest of Congress who essentially told the insurgents to hang on a little longer, because we're almost ready cave.

Aren't you getting a little tired of that old rag?
Anyone who can read, and bothered to touch on the words with more than 3 letters knows that there was multiple reasons given for our invasion of Iraq. One of the more important reasons was the 11 or so resolutions laid out by the UN.
Another big reason in my mind is that whether or not you are aware of the fact, the Gulf War was never officially "over". It was a ceasefire that hinged upon Saddam's cooperation and the cessation of hostilities by the Iraqi military. And yet he did everything in his power to obstruct inspectors and they shot at U.S and U.K. surveillance plans on a regular basis. Any one of the times they did any one of those things was reason enough for military action. To allow cheesy dictators to spit in the face of the UN's authority, not to mention the face of the U.S., too many times only invites other dictators to disregard them both.
I don't care what you think, but I do care what the men and women who stepped up for their country are thinking, and I know they get sick of the harping from professional protesters like you.
Seriously dude, get a job.

Things are getting worse in America because liberals like you do not support the troops.

I'm looking forward to a democrat being elected... then we'll see everything magically change...BAM! It's great now. It'll be great.
I mean, EVERYTHING is the fault of GWB, right?

Simply because there have been no more attacks since 911 is no guarantee that something else hasn't been in a planning stage. Our government has already advised us that "these people" are patient.

America will never be safer as long as Bush is in office...plain and simple. He IS the weapon of mass destruction, haven't people accepted that yet?
