Therefore, all this whoohaa is moot, because the foundation of the war has crumbled time and time again. IF we were attacked or in serious danger, I would want to know that those in power would work to keep us safe and defend us, as that is a part of their job. This is not that case.

Read above you can't proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Bush knowingly falsified information. Being the President he is allowed to act in good and to execute any laws passed by congress.

You think it takes balls to win a war? Have you ever taken any classes or studied game theory? I must be clear about this...bravery and fortitude do not win battles or wars. They are wonderful virtues that people should admire, but their place on the battlefield lays far behind intelligence. As you said, Bush has shown time and again that he is a moron. Brave morons usually lose.

It does take balls to win a war. You need fortitude, you need to believe you are fighting for the greater good, I happen to think we are. I also think you need to be more ruthless then your enemies, like stated I think anybody standing against us is getting off easy.

Aer they the downing street memos? I thought those were the ones accusing Blair of the same shit as Shrub. Thanks for clarifying, but the point remains the smae in light of the name of the fucking papers.

How do you know what they do or don't care for? Many of those fighting American soldiers in Iraq now consider themselves to be freedom fighters. We invaded their land and they want us out now. From their perspective, and from the perspective of many others, they have the moral high ground. They are looking for justice.
I think it would be benificial for you to meet people living in Iraq right now. Their perspectives are frightening and will change your perception of reality in that place very much.

By and large, I don't hate on these insurgents. I think they are fucking morons, making their case way worse, but if I were in the same situation I would probably fight too. They would be smart to work in the system, that would get us out of Iraq faster, something both of us want. Like I said to win you must be committed and have fortitude, these cats have it, dissenters here ruin and impede our effort and thats why we will lose this fight. I do not side with the terrorists, with people like Zarqawi, he is not a Freedom fighter, he is a sociopath and should be impaled on a fucking stick.
