Bush said he would not do it-he was critical of Clinton-said we needed to focus more on the US.

Would you rather leave it a haven for terrorist? Although if Bush had just left Iraq, you'd be complaining too.

The process of transforming money into commodities, then commodities into money necessitates that there exist a continual demand for the commodity. It does not matter whether the commodity is needed, only that that it be sold. That is, there needs to be a demand for the product. It does not matter whether the demand is real or contrived. The continuous demand for commodities requires that the consumption of the natural resources that make it possible not only continue, but that the rate of consumption continues to increase along with it. It does not matter that people die as a consequence of the commodity-money-commodity exchange.
War is a commodity as are the weapons that make it possible. It is inconsequential that civilians die in a war like Iraq which has been going in since 1991. "Shock and awe" showed the world that people are of little concern to neo-liberalism. What matters is that the supply of products that make war possible be consumed so that more war products can be produced. More war goods produced and sold means more profit. Fighting a nebulous unending war on "terrorism" insures that war and profit continue in perpetuity. "Terrorism" has replaced "communism" as a reason to continue the military industrial complex humming. Nations with economies that survive on for-profit war making are not bothered by the consequences of war, the collateral damage. It does not matter if one-half million Iraqi children die as a result of sanctions. It does not matter that people become contaminated with depleted uranium? It does not matter that hundreds-of-thousands, or millions of civilians die. It does not matter that US war casualties come home in boxes in the darkness of night.

ABSOLUTELY IS NATION BUILDING. saddam was in the process of ethnicly cleansing the kurds from the face of the earth. without us there would be no nation as the kurds would be dead. and what, pray tell did bush say he wouldnt do. let me remind you congress, including hillary r and the flip flopping john edwards approved the war as well so im unclear what your referral to bush saying he wouldnt do is all about.
bush and every other conservative are critical of clinton for completely VALID reasons...they are
- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance
- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*
- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation
- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify
- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
- First president sued for sexual harassment.
- First president accused of rape.
- First first lady to come under criminal investigation
- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case
- First president to establish a legal defense fund.
- First president to be held in contempt of court
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad
- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court
and to focus on the us by elminating the threat of al qaeda is precisely what were doing. you need to check facts more and editorialize less. have a nice day liberal...lmfao.

Yes, we are trying to impose a democratic government on people who do not deserve it. Time to cut and run and let them wallow in their misery.

There are a million excuses for cowards to quit. There is one good reason for us to continue on exactly the path we're on right now in Iraq:
We're winning.
It's really, really dumb to quit when you're ahead!
