Hey, way to raise the level of discourse.

It was a long post for such a short retort. Were you unable to read past the first line newbie?

Yes, I'm new to this "Inter-web" of yours, and thus it's difficult for me to read past the first line of most forum posts.

As for the short retort, that's because the only portion of your post that addressed mine was "Rant away trolls".

There was nothing in your (yes, admirably lengthy) post actually addressing the issue I'd raised -- namely, President Bush taking cover in 1998's House Resolution 4655 and presuming that a vague policy of regime change justified a preventive invasion of a sovereign nation.

"Then don't vote for him."

Trust me, you would have to look long and hard to find anybody at a district level of any Republican Party office in the country who would repeat what you just said.
