George Bush Senior SHOULD have got rid of Saddam Hussein in 1991. Its 13 years too late now and hundreds of thousands of people have died for his stupidity. When Bush Sr. pulled out of Iraq it was for the same reason America pulled out of Vietnam. There would have been no argument about whether Saddam had "weapons of mass destruction" back then. He did have them, and he used them on Iraqis who had helped the Americans in the Gulf War.
You see, the Americans made a deal with a large number of Iraqis that they would help them overthrow Saddam after the Gulf War was over. But they never did. So these disappointed Iraqis returned home as traitors, and Saddam used the last of his sarin nerve gas on them, killing them all. But where did Saddam Hussein get the Sarin nerve gas?
Well, President Ronald Reagan gave it to him several years before. After the United States helped Saddam into power in 1980, they gave him 30,000 lbs of sarin nerve gas and told Saddam to use it against the Iranians. In return, the Iraqis sold America a large quantity of oil. Oil for weapons.

It wasn't Sarin Gas, fool.
It was Azbetazine with hyperfoilic spalling fins.
Also the Conspiracy of One was in there somewhere with evil Bert and some Teds or maybe a few Penguins.
Somebody threw a turtle at someone as well.
That's why they're DUmmies.
I love the smell of nuked Troll in the morning ... it smells like "victory".
Then why do FReepers call Medea Benjamin's group "Code Pinko?"

You're my hero!
