Right or wrong, you are fighting a losing battle if you are trying to support the Democrat-controlled Congress.

Gottal love that 9% approval rating

I never said I was supporting Congress. Quite frankly both parties disgust me.

This could go on. The fact of the matter is that we cannot expect to continue on the path of doing whatever the hell we want to as far as international relations is concerned. We expect France, Russia, and China to bend to our whim, but refuse to give at all when it comes to our policy. A little diplomacy can go a long way. Or maybe we should just let the Nicaraguans handle it.
I agree, I'm sick of the United States acting alone. George W. Bush is worse than Hitler. So what if 39 other countries were so dedicated to the cause that they sent their own troops as a gesture of support. NONE OF THOSE COUNTRIES COUNT FOR ANYTHING!

I agree with your stance on diplomacy, and by that I mean that we should do whatever France, Russia, and China think is best for the world. Clearly these countries have the world's best interests at heart, just look at the historical record of Russia and China. I haven't personally but Keith Olbermann told me that it's pretty good.

I think the world would be a much safer place if Saddam Hussein was alive and had his 550 metric tons of uranium. It's better than George W. Bush having it. Everybody knows that George Bush is way worse than Saddam Hussein.

P.S. Good job on choosing countries like Moldova and Nicaragua as examples of countries which supported the war. The people there are subhuman at best. No really though, if you had mentioned a country like the U.K., The Netherlands, Spain, Poland, Italy, Australia etc. as your example you may have made the United States sound good and that's the last thing we would want to do!
Now now, I don't look down on anyone because of their nationality. I'm a liberal after all. Having said that, your inanity is chafing, but ignorable. Try again when you grow up.

I agree with you 100%. Thank goodness for selective reporting!

For the record I never liked Bush. I wanted McCain/Gore to win in 2000 and Kerry to win in 2004. In retrospect Kerry may not have been any better, maybe even worse. The fact of the matter is Bush is the President and sometimes you have to work with what you have.
... Your sarcasm is a little ( :roll: ) thick. We all get your points without being beaten about the head and shoulders with ludicrous comparisons.

... It makes little difference to the folks you're arguing with if that yellow cake was found 4 years ago or if it was found yesterday, if the media ignored it or no (everybody with a brain knows they did, so we don't need to be reminded).

... Regardless, Saddam is no longer a threat and for that I am glad. Let's wait and see what transpires in Iran. If the Israelis are serious, this could be quite a show.

And everybody with a brain knows that if this Uranium meant anything conclusive then Bush would have been jumping up and down about it, he hasnt which pretty much proves it is a red herring.

He should have done it before they became one.

PBS's nightly new did a story on it a while back. We aren't going to just bomb a superpower, it would start WWIII. But, we may refuse to pay our debt, our switch our money system, which would F them over. Too much of America's, and the world's trade moves through cheap Chinese labor. Not to mention how American's would shit themselves(not just without Wal*Mart :lol: ).
Like Einstein said 'I don't know how WWIII will be fought, but WWIV will be fought with stones and arrows.'

That is very true. No matter what, the media will never accept that Hussein was trying to reestablish his weapons program as well as biological and chemical capabilities.

Yeh its unbelievable how the Media has kept Bush away from TV for 5 years, he had so much proof that in 2 minutes even the Pinko Liberals would have got the message.

The point is that the media can only control so much, if Bush wanted to get a message across then nothing would have stopped him.

I for one, think that our major media outlets work with the government. I can't figure out another reason that Builderberg, or Bohemian Grove recieve no media attention. And I'm not trying to sound like a conspiracy nut here. But it does make sense to me.
