The world is also very different now, as apposed to during the cold war.A war with russia was a bigger threat than russia itself was.Iraq didn't have to have missiles capable of delivering nukes, nuclear missiles are the least of our worries.

The thing that you said was "could." Nothing ever happened. And as if we were going to invade every country and try and oust the terorists that stay there. Please.

So you think we should just let people attack us before we do anything about it? Do you like seeing 911-type attacks?

Of course I don't. But I'm not going to go around killing people based on half-ass info and ego trips. What is you plan for stopping world terorism? I'm done.

Nukes, Chemical, and Biological weapons were the least of our worries? What were we worried about, sand gernades?
And let people attack us? WTF are you talking about, Iraq wasn't going to invade us, and if you think that you must be trippin homie.
911 type attacks are going to be carried out by TERRORISTS which have nothiing to do with governments.
Oh and just so you know if it had been Gore that made all of these stupid decisions I would be against them then too.

1.I said nuclear missiles are the least of are problems, I didn't say chemical,biological or other nukes.
2.I said nothing about an invasion from Iraq.Thats just stupid
3.If terrorists have nothing to do with governments, why did you say Al Queida is linked to Saudi Arabia and Egypt in one of your previous posts.And in that case you must be against the Afghanistan invasion also? Al Queida linked Taliban wasn't the governing authority("government") in Afghanistan?

The previous post you are refering to said that the terrorists were FROM Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Let me make myself clear, I am sorry, what I should have said is that none terrorist governments have nothing to do with terrorists. As for Afghanistan they were a government that was being ruled by Al-Queda and the alusive Bin Laden. I do think that it is horrible that we have hundreds of people down in Guantanemo Bay with no rights, that are being totured. I though we were above that.

Sorry I assumed you were still refering to Iraq. :bowdown:
To think that Iraq was even close to capable of any sort of attack is ridiculous. Thats what I am saying.

How could Iraq(or any other group or country) NOT be capable of putting a few hijackers on a pre 911 US plane?

I'm also glad your not president. You repiblicans are all alike. Your only defense is to bring up the Clinton blow job scandal. How many people died from that? That was personal thing. Anywho, bitching about Clinton is about the stupidest and most meaningless thing anyone can do. It doesn't help or prove anything. People like you need to think about things. "The middle east would be a lake." That makes you no better than Saddam, because you would be deliberately killing innocent people. I hope your young still.

They will eentually kill themselves off.. we dont need to even help them, look at isreal... they will never stop fighting, tis what they live and die for I guess..
Im not like saddam... If i were president it would be quick and painless. Just how we ended WWII and won. There has to be a winner/loser.
Im not bitching about clintons BJ thing Im saying why did he go bomb iraq? And did you even know that? No, Im sure you still dont care.. clintons still the coolest.
Whatever.. its a waste to type my views. Peoples views wont change. The economy is improving by the way.
Go Bush! :razz2:

I belive that Iraq shot at US air planes. That's why we destroyed the radar thingys. I never said he was the coolest either.

I still don't get where you get the idea everything is a result of 911.Something needed to be done with Iraq for quite some time, even before 911.Because of Bush, there is no more taliban, no more saddam, and libia is scared straight.I'm curious to hear what you anti-Bush people think the appropriate course of action was.Like I said Iraq might not of been the highest priority, but it was as good as place as any to start.There is no doubt in my mind, history will show Iraq did support terrorism and its WMDs ended up in the wrong hands.Since you guys brought up Clinton, I think the president should be entitled to as many blowjobs as he wants, and its none of our business, Clinton also took some commendable steps against Bin Laden and Iraq.Everybody has the right to their own opinion and the right to question our government as much as they want, but when there are hundreds of thousands of US soldiers fighting in foreign lands, criticizing their commander in chief is damaging to morale, very unpatriotic and just plain wrong.

I have to disagree with you once again. To call someone unpatriotic, because they disagree with an unjust action by our president is fucking stupid. I think that it fucking sucks that our soldiers are over there dying everyday. I only hope that YOUR war was worth it.

Because of Bush our relations with the UN are shit. We should have waited for the UN's support instead of fucking ourselves in the ass.

I agree with Eric that criticizing the Commander in Chief when it comes to the military actions commenced upon under his term is truly un-patriotic. Patriotism is defined as (courtsey of dictionary.com):
Quote:
Patriotism \Pa"tri*ot*ism\, n. [Cf. F. patriotisme.]* Love of country; devotion to the welfare of one's country; the virtues and actions of a patriot; the passion which inspires one to serve one's country
|
Note the "devotion to the welfare of one's country" phrase in there. When you're sitting here bashing Bush about his military actions, not only are you criticizing Bush himself, but you are also criticizing the soldiers that are overseas risking their lives for our freedom. Bush's views about world politics and those situations that require military action is something that we can not control, we elected him, so live with it. He is commencing upon what he belives are the best actions for the welfare of the United States of America, and when you bash him, you are not showing patriotism. I am not saying anywhere that you have to agree with his choice of actions, but what I am saying is that you can not sit here and bash George W. Bush and still call yourself patriotic. I personally do not agree with all of the decisions has undertaken during his time as President, but I sure as hell am not going to sit and cut down Bush's military record down instead of supporting my fellow citizens 150% who are fighting for us, whether I agree with the basis of the cause or not.
Are we having fun yet or what
