A madman? Was he a madman when when we bankrolled him with billions in economic and military aid in his war with Iran- that we encouraged him to start?

Yes.

So your opinion is that Sadaam is a "madman"? Who was worse of a madman? Sadaam or Khomeni or Iran when we financed Sadaam and instructed his officers and military? Was it the Dictator or the Islamic fascist cleric from Iran? And when Sadaam invaded Kuwait and threw those babies out of the window from the hospital we just had to act right? No- nothing behind those lines- all just up front - the American people were fully aware of the reasons- it was for Kuwait and Freedom right? Just like Clinton's war in Serbia in 98? That was for the "refugees". So I guess when we invade a country that had less to do with 9/11 than my corner 7/11 clerk I will have to wave the flag as well or risk being called a traitor?
