Oh I see now....Clinton was "wrong" but Bush is a "liar"

And yes Underpants you are very ignorant. It's also very oblivious when you cut and paste the remarks you try to pass off as your own. They always lack the verbal vomit you usually spew.

But ignorance is not a bad thing and very curable so I am still holding out hope for you.

You're on your own with the Asshole thing. Originally Posted by TheDaliLama

"Funny" how that works ... they both were acting on the same "intelligence" gathering agency and the same U.N. resolutions with the same Congressional approvals. Originally Posted by LexusLover

If I paste anything that isn't original with me, I put it inside quotes or I provide a link. I've been in the writing business too long and that's not something I do. We didn't get into a war during Clinton's watch. Clinton didn't try to connect Iraq with 9/11. A connection which is complete bullshit and has been proven complete bullshit. So yes, he was incorrect in his assessment. Bush took it a step further and lied outright when the evidence wasn't nearly as strong. I voted for the guy the first time. I wish I hadn't, but I did.

Glad I don't read these post very often. The only thing I see is alot of name calling and pretty vulgar in some cases. Maybe this is alot of the problem these days, be it in private, public or on capital hill. It's disgusting!

But I have a different "theory" ... none of the above were wrong or lied about it.

Clinton lobbed some shit over there and Bush fiddle-farted around with the U.N. so long Saddam was able to get the shit out of the country, except for crap he didn't or couldn't move at the last minute. But that's not the only "issue" with Saddam. Remember his government signed a "cease fire" agreement with conditions on it....and WMD's was just one of them.

You ignorant dumb fuck- Was Saddam despicable when he gassed his own people, but the U.S still had ties with him many years after the incident. I guess he wasn't too despicable during the 8 years we funded him during the Iran-Iraq conflict? Was the Shah of Iran a model leader? Didn't we support his regime even though he crack down on anyone who opposed his regime?
Also, there are some reports that are well documented that Kuwait was "slant drilling" hence stealing oil from Iraq. Imagine if Mexico was to slant drill and steal oil from the U.S.

Iraq would have been much better off with Saddam in power than these ISIS guys who have emerged. Saddam was a moderate muslim- women were allowed to drive, become educated, drive, etc. Saddam was opposed to Al-Queada and any of it's influences. Now look what we have created!!!!

I think we have sunk to a new low when we start looking for the positive aspects of the Saddam Regime.

But I agree, (as I alluded to in my post), he did keep a tight leash on the Religious Fanatics who are proving to be even more dispicable than he.

By the way, if you are going to address me personally, keep it civil or simply put me on your ignore list.

If you want to get down and dirty about it maybe we should ignore tyrants as long as they stay inside their own countries. Like Khadaffi did the last few years of his life. The problem is that they get froggy and want to bother their neighbors and threaten the big dog (that's us).

Speaking of that, didn't you love how Obama made a speech to the people of Iran about having a fresh start...after he did nothing to spread the Arab Spring to Iran. Little late big guy.

A bare knuckles, take no survivors politician gets the job done. Webb doesn't have a prayer.

I have alway considered Hagel to be a lightweight but more electable than Webb. It didn't surprise me that he took the job of SOD and I was not real impressed with the job he did except for one thing...he stood up to BO and told him how the cow eats the cabbage, which got him "retired" so that he could spend more time with his family.

NEXT!

As for Hagel, there is not much likelihood that he will be the VP choice unless a candidate like Webb is the nominee. And I've already referenced that remote possibility.
