"I sort of agree with Billbears, the bible does not provide support for democracy. Choice, yes, democracy, no. " ??

Democracy is choice!

Thank you Coop. I've been reading for awhile, but with the flagging poll numbers and seeming missteps by the White House, I wasn't sure what I supported. With the new Iraq elections so successful and a definate turn in the wind, I'm ready to start showing my support again.

Todays speech is still such a touchdown for the team, I'm totally floored!

I'm not sure

But I do know that my local radio guy (DomG) is suppose to do an interview with Murtha around 1:30 to be played on his radio show tonight

Bill Clinton talked of an imaginary bridge.
George Bush not only built it, but walked across it.
Bill was from Hope.
George IS hope.

They are the same type of people who think that certain people need set asides and quotas because of certain iniquities they have faced.

Oh, no, I'm not asking about the link to 9/11. But since WMD seemingly went away as an argument, the other argument was that Saddam supported AQ. And he did. And I don't understand why this isn't highlighted in speeches.

Democracy is majority rule. Choice is freedom. They are different. In fact, democracy can take away freedom. We have a constitutional republic, with freedom given precedence over democracy.

The people you live with can't force thier "choices" on you through a democratic vote for a government intervention. At least they aren't supposed to be able to do so.

Anyway, I don't mean to belabor the point. I think though it is clear from reading scripture that "benevolent dictatorship" is a much better description of God's final plan for us than "democracy". I see no indication that God's plan is to give us all a vote in how things are run.

I guess I didn't explain my thoughts very clearly. I'll give it another try.

Even though Saddam did have ties to Al Qaeda, the administration is not mentioning this because they don't want to make the war seem like a conquering war of retribution. That isn't the case. The war was a war of liberation, a war to set the Iraqis people free and establish a second Democracy in the Middle East. The link between Saddam and Al Qaeda is almost irrelevant in this context.
