Why Hasn't America Been Attacked Again?

He forgets everything bigger than his small hateful mind.
Everything else he can't see so it doesn't exist.
Sounds like a narcissistic democrat.

He had them, He used them against Iran and His own people, He wanted more of them, He is in U.S. Custody, and his regime is toast. Now we are back to fighting the terrorist, that remain in his country and the ones who are coming in. And you don't like it, tough sh*t!!!!

Kaye found labs underground that the UN missed.
Kay said that the case for war was stronger after what he found.
Or did you miss that part?
Kay said that Bush did absolutely the right thing.
Or did you miss that too?
What about Coventry?

Will Bush survive attacks from the right?

Just how far has President Bush strayed from the conservative mainstream? Last September in the National Review, Ramesh Ponnuru counted the ways:
"Bush has increased the federal role in education, imposed tariffs on steel and lumber, increased farm subsidies, OK'd federal regulations on campaign finance and corporate accounting and expanded the national-service program President Clinton began. Since Sept. 11, he has also raised defense spending, given new powers to law enforcement, federalized airport security and created a new Cabinet department for homeland security. No federal programs have been eliminated, nor has Bush sought any such thing. More people are working for the federal government than at any point since the end of the Cold War."

I know the answer to your question, but I do not want to tip him off. Hopefully at least he will research it. I know his modus operandi. After he will research it. He'll find a way to twist it to his line of thinking. I've seen him in action before.

Yeah but he answers with some democrat spin.
He has no clue and will not have a clue.
A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged.
I guess he's a primadonna sitting at home watching tv for the democrat line and getting all worked about that evil Bush.

We did not find even labs- Want the Kay quote?

I don't know why I bother with you but you appear hell bent on acting as Saddam's defense attorney. Libya had no WMD the UN inspectors told us so. North Korea had no nuclear capabilities, the UN inspectors and Clinton told us so. Iran had no uranium enrichment program the UN told us so. There are no WMD in Iraq Kay told us so. Now, given the fact that the UN inspectors told us that there was enough Anthrax alone to wipe out 10 New York Cities that was never accounted for, why should we take anyone's word 10 months after occupying Iraq. That entire stash of Anthrax could have been hidden in the same sized hole Saddam was dragged from. Your entire agenda and history around here has been to denigrate the Iraq war as un-provoked aggression. You would be better served by joining the various pro-Saddam forums that agree with your view.

I'll answer for him, windbag. He does not want to read your leftist trash.

In your long diatribe, change the name you have at the bottom of it to Burkeman1!

HIs own People in 88 in Halabjah? The same site our government first said the Iranians did it and not our boy Sadaam?

That we use that to justify the lives of Americans now is simply disgusting.

It's not that difficult a question. Thanks for not tipping.
It's typical of democrats to completely ignore history when it doesn't fit their strategy to gain power.
All they want is power. When they have power then they can write and rewrite history to make them look good, e.g. clinton.

Sadam was our boy. However he is now in our custody, leftist.

Sadam may have been your boy, but he was never our boy, leftist.

Leftist? You call me that do you? LOL. Goodnight son.

I'm curious.
How would you fight the war on terrorism?

I Ain't going to bed yet, I'm having to much fun with you.
