>>Great analogy<<
Actually, the other side would say that's where the analogy falls apart...the man was never pointing the gun.
the other side would be wrong....or did the use of WMD's on his own people not count as "pointing the gun" or did the invasion of Kuawait not count as "pointting the gun" or did the buiding of a nuclear plant to build weapons(preemptively bombed by israel)not count as "pointing the gun" or did the 14 resolutions and klicking the UN inspectors out time and time again..not count as "pointing the gun."?
There was plenty of pointing the gun by Iraq ...Kerry and the moronic Democrats and Liberals just refuse to see it.
Ok, let's reword it...if a known murderer has a gun & you've warned him 17 times to put it down and he doesn't, and every police department in the world says there are bullets in it.....
Better?
