2nd) The war costs $500 BILLION and counting

Good day to you too

Answer 1

Because he can - and because he wants to make "daddy" happy by winning HIS war for him ;);););)

Answer 2

He did this because Saddam violated the conditions of the Armistice of the First Gulf War. 'Nuff said on that: unless you love socialist dictators.

And he did the tax cut to stimulate the private sector so it would recover, create jobs, lower inflation, lower unemployment and keep the deficit down to a smaller percentage of the GDP. And it worked.

Much better job than Carter and the Demos did with Iran and the economy in the 70's, and, although I only got $600 back that first year, I replaced a broken camera (so I could take family snap-shots) and my customers got enough to start up new businesses and buy stuff from me (so I could feed my kids without going on the grain dole.)

Communism doesn't work. Neither does appeasement to dictators.

Answer 3

I am pretty sure that until 2008, it's President Bush. I support him in all of his decisions and believe that the Iraq invasion and the tax cuts were a well thought out plan and President Bush would not have invaded Iraq if he thought it was the wrong thing to do.

Answer 4

TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH! OH WELL LETS SEE I USE TO WORK WITH THIS LADY AND SHE WAS SAYING THAT THE PRESIDENT WAS ALL FOR THE RICH PEOPLE SO I ASK HER DO YOU FILE YOUR TAXES AND SHE SAID YES! I I ASK HER WHAT ARE YOU GETTING BACK SHE STATED SHE WAS GETTING BACK 3,000 DOLLARS THEN I SAID GREAT DO YOU THINK THAT 3,000 DOLLARS WOULD HELP THE RICK MORE THAN YOU! SHE SAID NO! SO I SAID PRECISELY MY POINT MAYBE THEY ARE GETTING A BRAKE BUT IN THE END IT WILL BENEFIT THOSE WHO NEEDED THE MOST WITH THAT MONEY YOU CAN PAY OFF YOUR CAR, OR A BILL OR EVEN PUT A DOWN PAYMENT ON A CAR THAT IS RELIABLE SO YOU CAN ARRIVE TO WORK ON TIME AND KEEP YOU JOB! NEED I SAID MORE

Answer 5

Perhaps you should delve into the history of what happened in Iraq.

Horror of Hussein - History Channel Documentary
..."Along the way the mesmerized viewer is introduced to acid-drip machines in torture chambers, the mass public hangings of Jews Saddam claimed were “spies,” and grisly anecdotes of torture to induce false confessions -- with husbands forced to watch the raping of their wives, parents the gouging out of their children’s eyes, or the horrific image of a baby flung into a wall to shatter its skull."

Answer 6

You are like a bumper sticker, same old tired democratic line, "tax cuts for the rich"

You are such a fool, so easily seduced by these cute one liners.

Answer 7

Mass graves, wood chippers, attempted assassination of a U.S. President, violation of cease-fire agreement 1991 Persian Gulf War, pushing blind-folded people off tall buildings to have their brains dashed to the pavement, dimemberments, gassing civilian population, etc, etc . . . and on and on and on . . .

War costs less than 1% gross domestic product. (WWII 30%)

-Good day Sir!

Answer 8

Rosie; weren't you banned from Yahoo Answers?

Answer 9

Better yet, why don't some of the conservatives on here backing the war GO SIGN UP OR SHUT UP?

...and MARK, that's a damn lie that it cost less than 1%...

I see the people who voted me down shows they have nothing to say, and that I am right...

Answer 10

are you going to ask all the democrat talking points tonight or do you have any real questions?
