Liberated??? They were better off under Saddam then the huge mess he created during 2005-2007 and much safer. He eventually straightened that mess out but left Afghanistan a mess in the process. Private ownership?? Minorities?? You mean his CRA policies? How many minorities voted republican because of Bush's CRA policies you think were so great, in 2006 and 2008. How about TARP. How about NO Child left... without private school vouchers.
“Liberated??? They were better off under Saddam then the huge mess he created during 2005-2007 and much safer. “
That is a totally ridiculous statement based upon propaganda put out by liberals. Iraqis are much much much better off for us getting rid of that tyrant for them. People, you need to learn to discern facts and truth from the propaganda...it is important...your very lives may depend upon that in the future and others lives will definitely depend upon it.
You do not seem to understand that we are fighting a war. The War On Terror is real sickoflibs, if we stop fighting today the war would not be over. There are ebbs and flows in all wars, this one included. What has hurt us more than anything is the aiding and abetting of the left to help the terrorists. This war would probably have been over by now had we had the real support of the left in our country, but they decided that there were political advantages to ‘warring against our President and Republican congress’ and to their shame they helped kill our soldiers and to prolong the war.
I think that TARP that President Bush accepted was necessary and the correct way to do it...no strings attached. It saved our economy.
The No Child Left Behind act was a good thing and has resulted in improvement in minority children education. The unions and leftists have always battled it because it was a threat to their monopoly/political power corrupt relationship between the teachers union and the democrat party.
Indeed, Ford just gave the teacher’s union 100 million dollars...most understand this is really a payoff to the democrat party for help they received or hope to receive.
I don’t think you have a good grasp of the situation sickoflibs. You are at the right internet site to get better informed. You may also want to get a subscription to the Wall Street Journal and read the comments as well as the articles. I know it really brings more truth to light for me.
He depends on Wikipedia for his information on what happened in Iraq. (i.e. he is ignorant).
My son worked directly with the Iraqi people all throughout 2008, and you are right. The idea that the Iraqi people preferred being under Saddam to liberation and self-governance is absurd. The idea that they were "better off" being butchered and tortured by their government is not even in the realm of the rational.
Our troops under George W. Bush liberated millions, and the ME and the world (especially the United States) are far safer because of their courage in defending our freedom and security.
