more Americans were killed in auto accidents over that period. We lost 3000 people over here in 2 hours.
The deficit spending is due to entitlements. The first dollar we spend is on defense because without it nothing else matters.
The Bush Administration gets a straight F for PR.
They should have implemented full censorship on all war-related news and kicked out ALL those smelly journazists out of the war zone. And why the HELL is the President giving an Interview to CBS!? He should know they will be using him for their propaganda! It's the same level of naivity as Richard Perle and co. giving interviews to Vanity Fair, only to find out they were fooled for more liberal propganda.
Much ado about nothing...he has already said in his speech on Wednesday that mistakes were made that have caused us to have to change tactics.
I betcha every military expert will tell you that what Pres. Bush said is true of EVERY war that has ever been fought.
The actual war to get rid of Saddam, which was from a 1998 resolution...WAS fought almost perfectly. But, they say, that war plans have to be changed from the second the first troops sets foot on the ground.
I KNOW the Dems and Sissy Chrissy Matthews will use this as PROOF that Bush is even more of an "idiot" than they have been telling us for 6 years...but, it will be the same ole song, 100th verse...IMHO>
OK. So they inferred the word "my" because Bush doesn't always use pronouns. I've seen far more slanted headlines than this one which is fair game based on what he said.
Mark Bowden of "Black Hawk Down" fame wrote it best when towards the end of that novel he quoted a woman from Somalia regarding clan warfare which has torn that country apart. Am paraphrasing but the gist of the woman's comment was that "these people do not want peace. They want power and if that mean's genocide/ war/ ect these disfunctional 3rd world nations are willing to endure it.
Once again, it was foolish to think that these nutcases could be civilized.
Deficits matter when compared to GDP. Since the deficit as compared to the GDP is at nearly (if not totally) historic lows, there's no reason for concern.
Unless you just like to complain.
9/11 was planned for at least three years before it occurred and Clinton did not do a damn thing to stop those terrorists from getting in. If there is one person to blame for terrorism being carried out on our soil it is Bill Clinton, and his top national security advisor would not be stealing documents from the archives and hiding them under a construction trailer and stuffing them into his socks if they were not guily.
No. I am sick to death of everyone's damn apologies and requests for apologies.
If I were inclined to want apologies, I would want apologies from the people who killed 3000 people in our country, and caused billions of dollars in damage to our country, in TWO HOURS, not in four years. And those deaths would have been higher, were it not for the actions of this President and his administration.
I would want apologies from that BJ loving sorry excuse for a human, piece of excrement president that preceded George W. Bush, and succeeded his father, Bush 41), who loathed the military, evaded the draft and who did nothing about the growing threat that - once again - a Republican president has had to go in and clean-up, at the cost of lives and finances.
I would also expect apologies from the blathering demagogues, such like "The Eaglet" (certainly not you, Peach) that pretend like 3000 deaths in four years is an abysmal failure, but deaths in numbers of the hundreds of thousands in previous wars is ok and noble...perhaps because they were started by Democrats?
People make their decisions. They stand by their decisions. That's how "real life" is. No more damn apologies.
Rant over...for now.
The real question should be one that Bush should ask 60 Mins, "Where the hell did those fake National Gaurd documents come from?"
As if stability is a good thing all by itself, in every place and at every time, and for everybody. Well, it is not always the case.
Everytime I hear the lib crap about how we never found WMD I get equally PO'd with them and the unwilliness or inabaility of the administration to articulate just these facts. I don't understand why we do not continue to make the case instead of just leading the US/Bush haters frame the debate the way they do. And I know some think Russia had something to do with it, but nonetheless, we should tell history like it is (lots of evidence that WMD's and other things were moved/hidden in advance of our attack) and not shove the facts to the back burner.
I want Maliki to personally cut off Mookie Al Sadr's head live... or I don't believe him.
Maliki sure told him, that's why this came out:
AP warning... by staff, no less.
'New troops may leave Iraq in coffins'

Who is attacking who? Sounds like our fearful leader is forgetting his base again.
Just the thing that is needed before order. Thumbs up Mr. President.
Spare me the liberal invective tactics, please.
I think you misread me. I am not taking it to heart at all. I support GW 110% and think Iraq is much better now that Saddam is gone. Mistakes are always made in wars, so you make corrections. That is what GW is going now. I support him 110%.
