Bush Has Lost The Creep Stepfather Vote

OldJeff · 09-23-2004

One major difference I can see between the Cold War and the "War on Terror" is the cold war was "won" economically, we simply out spent them for decades eventually bankrupting the Soviet Union.

The only way to do economic damage is to eliminate the dependency on Oil (which is never going to happen with an administration full of "Oil People")

We can not possibly eliminate "terrorists" with armies, you can not kill into submission an enemy that defines death as a victory. Isreal has been trying for decades.

No matter how many pipe dreams we have about "stabalizing the Middle East" that ain't gonna happen either, it has been an unstable war zone for a thousand years before the US existed.

I fully supported the Afgan War - our attackers were there.

I supported the war in Iraq when the government said there were WMD's - I wanted us find them so we could say FU to the UN, and everyone that voted against us.

Unfortunately, the only proof I have seen is that the adminstration lied about Iraq no doubt about it. No WMD's - NO THREAT to the US at all.

Every reason I have seen anyone give (politicians, and those of us who play politics on Adult message boards) for justification of the Iraq war is either bullshit (by the politicians) or a matter of being unwilling to admit we were lied to.

I just don't think our men and women should be dying in the desert to try and justify a lie.
