[Alberta's Child]

Welcome aboard.

My opposition to this war in Iraq, which dates back to 2002, is based on the following:

1. The voters of this country are not focused, intelligent, or disciplined enough to support a long-term war like this.

2. The civilian leadership in the Defense Department has proven itself to be untrustworthy, incompetent, or corrupt . . . or any combination of these three.

3. It was clear to me even in 2002 that this was nothing more than a veiled attempt at "nation-building," by a President who had promised as a candidate in 2000 not to engage in nation-builing.

The only problem with that is the fact that the enemy will fight this war regaurdless of how focused we are.

In other words you think we are simply not up to it what with corruption and your damning of the President. Tell that to the bunch who have been blown away in Fallujah.

If you are Alberta's child, I suggest you get your useless butt back to Alberta. Toot sweet, as they say in canada.

That's rich, AC, welcoming someone aboard your sludge barge. You socialists don't know when you're well off and being protected. If you weren't so pathetically twisted in your perspective, you'd be laughable. [Incidentally, when you whine to the AM about my addressing you directly, try not to expose your immaturity to the rest of the forum.]

My opposition to this war in Iraq...

The difference is that you are the LOYAL opposition. Our honest disagreements are based on concern for the good of our nation.

Seems you missed 9-11.

Well, slacker, my opposition to the war in Iraq goes back to 1967, so you Johnnie-come-latelies can kiss my grits.

As for the reasons, any idiot can copy the DNC talking points... er make quite an impressive list of real adult-sounding reasons.

Nice opinions.

Which country are you referring to? Are you talking Canadian or US voters.

Canada couldn't fight off a cold without the support of the US, so go easy on the US taxpayer.

You're another pasty white civilian that thinks we actually have a choice in this matter, as to whether we fight or we stay at home.

You don't think they'll spare Canadians, do you? Start reading up on Islam, infidel. It's them against us. All of us, until the last radical islamic idiot is dead.

If they are willing to attack the French, they'll definitely attack Canada, despite the fact that Canada acts like the accommodating girlfriend of the free world.
