Very interesting. I've generally thought of her as a single senator that failed to universalize healthcare, not some powerful demigod. I don't know why everyone thinks she's a big threat to the right wingers... Oh, they don't think she's a threat; she's just an easy target. Got it. Anyway, she's pretty overhyped, IMO.

Cheney ~ Satan 2008! <--I'm voting this way. We will win the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, North Korea, Nigeria, and Venezuela, all while balancing the budget and creating a booming economy. Of course, we'll also have to balance those gains out with church burnings and abortions, but hey, you have to break some eggs...

Hillary is the most recognizable democrat. She also has done nothing since winning election in 2000 but gather cash and the support necesary for a presidential run in 2008. I don't like this woman very much, she is the type that should be kept out of power...bothers me the city of new york was stupid enough to elect her in the first place...

Man, you are a kool-ade drinker.

First of all Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11, not a single thing. No links.

If the kill ratio is in fact 1000 to 1, that means that around 200,000 terrorists were killed? Hmmm, that number seems a little high to me.

It is sad to read that there are "educated" people who believe that Saddam had anything to do with 9-11. That is such nonsense, trumpted by Bush-Cheaney to justify invading Iraq, an dhas as much validity as the WMDs. But that's okay, stupid people believe stupid things. Afganistan was exactly the right move to begin with, but it begts to be finished. The US will have troops in Afganistan for years. Ditto Iraq. Bush has conceeded that he doesn't know how to get out of Iraq and does not have a plan for either winning or getting out. So,m he is going to leave it to "future Presidents" and future Congresses. Not to mention that our future Great Grandchildren will be paying off the National Debt this corker ran up. (The deficit for 2005 was announced to be about $350 Billion, but that is the cash deficit. The accrued deficit for that year was on the order of $750 Billion. Total deficit is about 8 and one half trillion dollars.)

Saddam was a loud mouth, a terrorist to his own people, and he did try to show some supprt for the Hama bombers in Israel. The fact is, thought, he was darn near broke, and couldn't afford to maintain WMDs. He feared and distrusted al Queada. To say he had anything to do with that group defies known history and politcal facts.

Thje era of Bush and his culture of corruption will enter history as among the most disasterous in American history.

The real reason all along was occupation. Chalbie (most likely an Iranian spy) sold the neocons on the notion that iraq would unite and let us keep our permanent bases. Chalibie is allied with Sadr, who's also funded by Iran, as is the current prime minister who is refusing to step aside and let a coalition govt be formed. Bushii has been jobbed from day one by Iran.

This is very insightful, I agree. The majority of the voters have a short attention span; they buy into this ‘Two word’ culture that the Republican Media machine pushes (Flip Flop, Same-sex marriage, War on Terror, Fight them There, etc).

Why is McCain kissing the Worst President Ever's a$$ at every turn, and pandering to the psychos by giving the commencement at Liberty University?

McCain had a chance to unify this country and run with Kerry, but he turned his back on his country and fell back like a coward behind his corrupt party, instead of standing up with a fellow Vietnam Veteran to get this country headed in the right direction. Even sadder that he did this after his own party stabbed him in the back in the S.C. primaries that you alluded to.

How much better off would this country be with those two patriots running it, than this corrupt bunch of POS that do. I know that NASA scientists wouldn't be hushed and forced into silence about our climate. I know Iraq and my brothers and sisters there would be better off. I could go on and on.

It is amazing that in this day-in-age there are still ignorant people making the assumption that Iraq was in any way associated with 9/11 and/or Al qaeda. There has never been ANY evidence associating the two. The 9/11 commission concluded Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with it. Even the Bush administration finally admitted in 2004, and blamed their conclusions on faulty intelligence, even though all strong intelligence pointed to the contrary.

Now as to your brave neo-cons who fight against terror, those cowards wanted to let Al qaeda get away with it. In fact, initially Powell was the only senior official arguing to take the war to the enemy, but the neo-cons were affraid they would be embroiled in an ugly land war, and it has always been a wet dream for the neo-cons to invade Iraq (Wolfowitz wrote a paper on it before 9/11 even occured). They assumed that Iraq would be the cake walk and Afghanistan the hell whole. Despite the Pentagon's arguments, they held their ground. However, Bush in all his "wisdom" decided to take a vote with his top officials to decide which exact retribution upon, luckily Powel's hand won. But sadly his win was just momentary, and eventually the neo-cons got their wish (and memos going between UK and USA leaders show WMD had nothing to do with it).

BTW, not only were the ignorant neo-cons wrong about Afghanistan, but they were absolutely wrong about Iraq. The Pentagon however was right about Iraq, but why listen to the professionals when the amateur, agenda driven decision makers will do.

PS In 1997 Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz were charter members of the PNAC, a neo-conservative think tank. At the time they strongly advocated preemptive U.S. military intervention against Iraq and other "potential aggressor states" to "protect our vital interests in the Gulf". Obviously OIL was never part of the equation, their motivations were always about terrorism.

PPS All of this information is well documented, and for those of you who would like to learn more about the war, you just have to do a little research (just ignore sound bites from both sides of the isle). However, those of you who would rather be driven by dogma and ideology would be better off remaining on course, just be aware your claims can be easily disproven.

A little background on how the intelligence was analysed by Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz:

Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz felt that established security services were beauracratic and “too traditional in their thinking.” Therefore, they decided to borrow an idea from their old Team B (an analyst group that wrote a paper about the Soviet Union) days in the 80s. The group they created was known as the ‘cabal’, a cell of eight or nine analysts in a new Office of Special Plans (OSP) based in the U.S. Defense Department.” According to a Pentagon source quoted by Seymour Hersh in The New Yorker the OSP “was created in order to find evidence of what Wolfowitz and his boss, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, believed to be true—that Saddam Hussein had close ties to Al Qaeda, and that Iraq had an enormous arsenal of chemical, biological, and possibly even nuclear weapons that threatened the region and, potentially, the United States

Such a strategy needles to say, is a self-fulfilling prophesy. If you want to prove one perspective, then you will ignore all evidence to the contrary. BTW, that Team B, that he used as a model produced the most inflamatory and erroneous paper about the Soviet Union in its time. Its purpose was to undermine the CIA intelligence (sound familiar), but all its premises and conclusions proved at best wrong, and at worst fabricated. See a pattern here?

McCain a moderate? :spit:

You people really need to check out his voting record. He comes across as a somewhat populist guy because he shoots his mouth off on occasion....but a moderate, he surely ain't.

I have a bad feeling that a lot of people are going to be suckered by this guy if he runs in 2008.

Where did I imply or state that? My only statement regarding their conclusions was the deck was fixed, so it was not surprising they would draw such conclusions. Moreover, Wolfy has a history of producing EXTREMELY poor reports to the Executive branch with regards to intelligence on war/weaponry matters. Instead, I would argue that all intelligence at the time leaned strongly against their position, thus leading to the memo from Bush to Blair regarding his intentions to invade Iraq regardless of Saddam's actions (i.e. he decides to step down).

Hey Merlin, what do you make of the report that Hersh filed stating sources in the CIA that they themselves actually created the COMPLETELY OBVIOUS fake documents about the yellowcake buy in Niger as a joke/wakeup call to the psycho drumbeaters in the White House, but that they were so crazed for war that they actually took this obviously fabricated piece of intel as the truth, and used it in the fkn State of the Union.

And why haven't I put Mock on ignore yet? It's not even humorous anymore, just sad.

Well, someone fabricated it, and judging by their treatment of the CIA agent that got exposed, the WH knew it, and was trying to cover it up (while also sending a message to other "dissenters"). However, I doubt the actual CIA produced/sanctioned the creation of the document, but someone involved with the CIA could have facilitated the process (in an unofficial manner).

Why is McCain kissing the Worst President Ever's a$$ at every turn, and pandering to the psychos by giving the commencement at Liberty University?

McCain had a chance to unify this country and run with Kerry, but he turned his back on his country and fell back like a coward behind his corrupt party, instead of standing up with a fellow Vietnam Veteran to get this country headed in the right direction. Even sadder that he did this after his own party stabbed him in the back in the S.C. primaries that you alluded to.

How much better off would this country be with those two patriots running it, than this corrupt bunch of POS that do. I know that NASA scientists wouldn't be hushed and forced into silence about our climate. I know Iraq and my brothers and sisters there would be better off. I could go on and on.

Thanks for the chuckle. I enjoy irony. Let's "unify the country" by hurling insults such as "psychos", "turned his back", "coward", "corrupt party", "corrupt bunch of POS", and "forced into silence". It certainly sounds like you are interested in unifying the country.

I did not imply that you meant it, I merely asked if you assumed it was a "mistake" or an intentional lie. I don't think there's any doubt it was a lie.

As to where the lie came from, it came from Italy. Berscoloni's govt, a bushii ally in the neocon movt, got a forged doc. They knew it was forged. Ledeen, one of Rove's guys, came to Italy, got it, and brought it back to Rove. How can a rational person not know that the WH knowingly used forged intell? And, that's the real reason Rove is being given a freedom medal and posted to .... God knows.

People that think that man walked with dinosaurs are "psychos".

He did turn his back on his country when he stood behind Bush instead of with Kerry. It was a "coward" move imo, because he wanted to run in 2008, rather than present a unified America to the world. How much better would it be??

"Corrupt" and "corrupt party", well lets see, who is being indicted this week. That's a no brainer. And yes, NASA scientists were silenced, and enviromental reports were vetted by WH staff.

If it were your avg person, I would say they knew they were lying. The problem (and scary part) is that far too often the WH seems to believe its own spin; and when truth is seen as whatever you define it as, then you start believing some truly strange things. Quite ironic considering how Clinton was (correctly) skewered for his legalisms while being questioned by the SP's office.

As to Wolfie and Rumsfeld, I do think they knowingly misdirect (but they believe in a grander truth that supercedes mundane truth).
