Saddam kept his boot on the necks of the fanatics, as does Assad in Syria. The minute we help dispose of Assad, Syria will also turn into a religious based cess pool as well.

For the life of me, I cannot see the difference in being lined against the wall in the name of Despotism, or in the name of Religion. Your dead either way. Originally Posted by Jackie S

You know the left has always tried to blame Bush for 9/11. They like to say that Clinton left a game plan behind to fix it but Bush ignored it. No game plan was every found and Clinton never said that he left on behind. The only thing relevant to 9/11 was a small briefing document from years earlier that Clinton did not take too seriously (or he would have done something about it). Here we have video proof that Bush called it right on the money, even made a public statement about it, and Barry found himself surprised that all this happened because he failed (and Hillary) to get a status of forces agreement because he didn't want one.

I know the left want to cry, gnash their teeth, point to something else, and use homophobic slurs because they have NOTHING left. Obama's failure is complete.

Too bad Bush's crystal ball didn't work so well when he went INTO Iraq.

There is no winning for our country's overall health when it comes to Iraq. Only a select few have profited from that boondoggle.

Let's see the difference:

Was Clinton's VP the former CEO of Halliburton when the contracts were let for Kosivo? Was it a former CEO who insisted that Halliburton get those Kosivo contracts without competition?

A decision to obligate billions of government dollars without competition is sometimes necessary. When the person doing the obligating sends those billions to their friends and business associates--that is a bit different, don't you think?

It's spelled Kosovo.

Do you have any evidence that Cheney directly intervened as VP in the awarding of any Iraq war contracts and "insisted" that they go to Halliburton? This would have been a serious ethical breach and a violation of federal government public service rules. Democrats would have jumped all over it, if indeed it had occurred.
