"Do you notice how the Left is willing to jump on semantic distinctions like saying that "neanderthal" is not racist because neanderthals aren't a race, yet they insist that Bush declared Iraq an imminent threat when Bush only used the word "imminent" in a sentence to convey the opposite meaning that we can't wait for the threat to be imminent?"

Excellent point--it bears repeating (I think).. I am SO TIRED of the liberal bias on the Iraq war.

this is off topic, but I correspond with a friend who is a former Navy officer. I live in Canada, he's in the States. Yesterday I asked him if people in the US were really starting to get "down" on the Iraq war.

He said, "the body count is starting to bother people."

Now ag ain, he's a conservative, though not a Freeper.

All I can say is, I am so glad we've begun aggressive action against those who would attack us. Yes, we hoped the end of hostilities was in May, but unfortunately it wasn't. So... BRING IT ON! ;) :) Don't hold back!

Dead Americans on the news will always bother Americans, because we CARE . However, if we feel like they died neednessly or in some situation where it could have been prevented, then yes, Americans will want their sons and daughters brought home.

So, we pretty much agree that bringing peace and democracy to Iraq and the rest of the Middle East (I know, it's a long-term goal) is a GREAT THING for humanity. And by the way, The U.S. is the only country, with the exception of Britain, Poland, Australia, and others who understand, who is willing to put its young people in harm's way to defend that ideal.

I thank God I was born in the U.S. We are truly a bastion of freedom ... oh goodness, what was the question?

I'm sorry...yes, I am pwd. Posting While Drinking (wine). But now I'm going to sleep, helping my kids go to sleep. :) Goodnight, Freepers! :)
