I've done it too back in 1996.

    Ok know-it-all, you tell me what had to do with the invasion? Why did the US invade Iraq?






    On a similar note, did anyone see Bush's reaction to the Flu vaccine shortage? "If you're young and healthy, just dont get a vaccine this year". Meaning, pray you dont get sick. Kerry reacted to it, but he could use it even more to shed some light on Bush's policies.

    Kerry's health plan involves insurance for around 26 uninsured (out of 40-ish), while Bush's accounts only for 8.

    To bring freedom to the Iraqi people and to show them how great democracy can be, for the limited offer bargain price of thousands of innocent civilian lives and billions of dollars worth of revenue for American companies from the 'rebuilding of Iraq' :extatic:

    First of all, I dont think this is a war against Islam, as religions inst a factor when major money is involved.

    Second, I'm not even muslim, so your accusations have no basis.

    So you just want to let Al-Qaeda and similar groups continue bombing trains, killing civilians, etc to alter elections, without doing anything against them, so as n ot to provoke them? Do you really believe that you can pacify terrorists? it isn't just the US that radical Islam hates-the US is merely the centerpoint of usual anti-Christian and anti-Semitic feelings (as well as Israel, of course) people like Osama bin-Laden are not stupid-they know that millions of people hate the US-it's so easy to hate the US! terrorists know that they have a great position-most westerners have no interest in a long, drawn out battle with terrorism, especially if they believe that the terrorists target merely a country that they don't even like-a contry that many people despise. Kerry simply does not have the strength (single-mendedness, narrowmindedness, whatever you see it as) to stand up to all the opposition he would have to continue the war on terror as it is currently being handled. (not to say the way it is being fought now is perfect-far from it!)
    I dont agree.

    In the first place, i dont think the US was ever a hated country. Its always symbolised the land of freedom, and the place to achieve your dreams. However, like you say there is a small section that has Anti-US feelings, but of course the way this war panned out, it kinda changed world opinion on a larger scale. I dont know if you stay in the US, but from what i blv; the people who make up the land are not presented in the right light by Bush, and his international policies. Besides, to be honest, i dont think Kerry or Bush for that matter can handle or retaliate to the right extent as far as terrorist attacks go. Nobody in the world can. Like 9/11 showed, it was Bush and America's defense that were caught napping, and Bush only made things worse thereon in. Your saying Kerry doesnt have the strength, well if he's not given the chance you'll never know. Bush has had his chance, and the way i see it, i think he's blown it. The US always takes great pride in presenting their army as the best, most well trained, elite force in the world. What good has that come to, when with all of Bush's resoruces, he hasnt been able to find the one man who in all probability will come back to haunt him: Osama Bin Laden. Unable to do so, hes taken all his frustrations out on Saddam Hussain, that too with ulterior motives. His administration doesnt seem to be as transparent as most people would liek it to be, and therefore i certainly think JFK can only make for a better president. Go Democrats. :D

    My prediction: George Dubya Bush will probably edge it.

    I agree Saddam was bad but that is not a reason for entering a country. It's even worse now in Iraq that some people wishes he was back which is really bad.
    What your saying is the very essence of what the Iraqi sentiment is at this point of time. They say, they'd rather be mistreated by Saddam - thier own countryman, than have another country invade them and dictate their lives.

    The "He may have been a ruthless dictator, but dammit -- he was our ruthless dictator" argument. Sad, but there may be truth to that.

    Which is better, the devil you know, or the devil you don't know.




    The fact that Florida can even be considered a "swing state" shows just how close this election is going to be, given the fact that Jeb is the acting governor in the state of Florida.

    Pardon me if I'm not exactly bowled over with the prospects for 2004.

    Hillary or Rudy in 2008. Can't be any worse than the two that we have to choose from right now.

    Besides, all the power is in congress and the Senate, anyway. That's where us Americans should be focusing a good amount of attention to next thursday
