The Media, the elites, academia, and Hollywood still look at everything through the narrow, constricting prism of Vietnam. Everything is Vietnam. Boys died needlessly in Vietnam. We stopped the war. We brought down a president. Bobby died and the world went to hell in a handbasket, ad naseum.

Thanks.

I'll bet Saddam's pager has been going off all morning, and now he's scrambling to put everything from his scuds to his bottle rockets on hot standby. Can anyone say MOPP-4?

Limbaugh needs to get with the program or he will be considered as irrelevant as the UN.
To: N. Theknow
Just wait for the final damning piece of evidence: Saddam in an SUV smoking a cigarette with a handgun in a shoulder holster. Bingo!

The left will not support a war until we are attacked. I think the real point is: the left will not support a war even IF we are attacked.
To: AFPhys
When was it that the bombing starts?
I'd like to know too so I can arrange for the day off and watch it live on FOX....

Unfortunately history has shown that what the Rats say and what they do are not the same thing.

He stated two weeks ago that he would be off for 2 weeks due to committments made last year. Usually these tournaments are not back to back. He did come in Monday.

Russia waffling...we need to "study". We need time. Blah blah.Fox -- they think other natons are waiting to see how the world reacts. It's quite a shock. Right now, they're saying "Holy crap!"

Brian Williams asks if "Bush knew?" Wonder if he has ever wondered in his little pea brain, if x42 knew?

Quite noticeable that the Russian minister expressed shuttle condolences to the U.S. government and people and pointedly omitted similar sympathies to Israel.

PROOF? Like I've said before, if you give them the cut out tongues of Iraqi people they would NOT believe it.....someone needs to start talking about how it is "FOR THE CHILDREN"......if we get "proof" it will be TOO LATE.....I'm STARTING TO REALLY HATE FRANCE.... US Response: If P.M. Chirac choose to believe the word of Saddam Hussein, their enemy in the Gulf War, over the word of the United States, their NATO ally and ally in WWII, WWI and the Revolutionary War, then so be it. We have their measure. We will not endanger our intelligence sources by betraying them to a government that has shown itself to have no integrity or loyalty.
To: Wphile
A significant segment of the Left wouldn't support war even if we were attacked!
"Better Red Than Dead" was not a bumper sticker. It reflected a mentality with a long lineage that went back, among other roots, to occupied France.
In the Left's universe, the only thing possibly worth dying for is a tree. They don't have a problem with subjection or slavery---they beg for it all the time out of their own government, so if the government changes hands by force . . . well, what's the difference.
To: Howlin
CBS Radio says France wants "proof" of what Powell said. France better watch what they ask for
President Bush just might give them more and it might not look to good for France
