I am not kidding here..I got chills just reading this. Can you imagine him taking out Saddam and Iraq gets the clean sweep? Possible poll numbers in the 120% range...I think that we need to take care of one thing at a time. If people are a bit unsure of 2004 elections...start Iraq in 2003. America will not feel comfortable electing a new guy who is not up to snuff with the entire situation. Then it is a lock.

Don't forget Dashole last night telling the nation the most important mission ahead of us now in our war on terrorism is taking out the leaders we cannot locate.

Flood Iraq with counterfeit currency. That will destabilize the economy...

Muhammad, I'll trade you three American sand-dollars for 72 virgins.

He continued that invading Iraq would take up to 300,000 soldiers, 1,000 aircraft, and as many as five aircraft carrier battle groups.

Some people have a short memory. The last time we went over there, we beat the crap out of them people in 100 hours... and that was with older technology. Take out their SAM sites, communications.

Then let some American teenagers play with armed Predator aircraft using the military's flight consoles. It would be a lot more fun than a SONY Gamestation!

Those kids playing a live version of "Sandbag Saddham" or "Hussein in Hell" would compete for a full college tuition grant. The top 10 winners would be awarded citation from W, "For Valor in Remote Action in Serving the United States of America in the War Against Terrorism".

Military volunteerism would skyrocket.

Any other FREEpers have more ideas on this one?

ISLAM IS PEACE...........(unless of course you are not Muslim)....in which case there will be no peace. Tolerance goes in many different directions. We are not an Islamic state, nor will we ever be, and I am sick and tired of those who have no concept or realization of the issues at hand here. Why did it take the WTC to wake people up???????????

I got a 16 year old kid next door that would just rock at that. Just tell him it's game, like in the book "Enders game". Shoot, they could do it real time from their lving rooms via satelite. They'd LOVE the special effects and 3d graphics!! LOL Be the most realistic "game" ever created!! ROFLMAO!!

Oh yes, that would be fun, build about 1000 predators with hellfire missiles and 50 caliber machine guns and put em in control. We'd lose a few predators to suicide tactics, but hey, ya only get 3 lives, right? LOL Oh and of course those new spread fire guns in the belly, they would LOVE it!!

It took that to wake people to Bush's concerns. Those who have martial arts experience hopefully realize it takes strength to achieve peace.

As a FReeper, I can explain things that others never hear on CNN or the networks........The other day at work, a fellow employee from Laos said "this war is not good because of the children it will hurt". I had to contain myself and simply asked her where she gets her information and upon what she bases her opinion . Obviously, it was CNN. I then asked her why she thought we were fighting this war? She had no idea at all............hummmmmmmm........Comments?

Actually, Ashcroft got it right. Nothing to apologize for here!

A theology of death.

Oh, it absolutely is! But you could read it all sorts of ways (just like many areas of the Bible, particularly the Old Testament--such as Noah's daughters' fooling about, etc. My point is that it depends on which side of the mirror you're standing as to how "backward" everything looks.

To a devout Muslim, the idea that God had to have a Son in order to "save" mankind is outrageous. To them it sounds like we're saying He, God, couldn't do it himself.

The thing I don't understand is why this is all over the News today if we are even thinking about doing it. Shouldn't this be classified information? It was even in the NY Post.

Art of War. Soddom Hisson's fear [Combined with the awful paranoia that comes FRee with his advanced Terminal Alcoholism] must have pretty much rendered him FRantic by now.

His ability to plan, strategise and operate was never a stength -- and must now be a liability -- and his insane, drunken -- and FRequently murderous -- rages are legendary. Any day now one of his "aids" [Slaves, more like it -- or hostages] will just shoot the bastard -- and his obscene spawn -- and put us all out of our misery!

Or he'll pull a Jimi -- and drown in his own vomit!]

It's being announced and firmly reaffirmed by the Bush Adminstration for the benifit of the quislings, hand-wringers and appeasers in Europe, Asia and the Middle East who have been expressing alarm or resistance to our rhetoric on Iraq. IOW it is necessary to let them know that we are going to go ahead with this, so get with the program or get out of the way. It is also useful to give them some time to get used to the idea.
