How do you figure? What you've given me here is administration slogans. Tell me what makes YOU think that, please.

Different "thems". The "them" we attacked
never attacked us. And we've killed tens of thousands of them who never had anything to do with attacking US interests before WE attacked THEM.

Was Saddam Hussein
guilty of being behind the 9/11 attacks? Or was he.... ?
In Bushworld, they're all muslims, so they're all enemy. They're counting on American stupidity and jingoism. The fact that you're not questioning this troubles me.

And that makes it right because....? I didn't buy it when they were selling it, and neither did my presidential candidate of choice. Besides, what a certain presidential hopeful Senator from New York said on the floor when she was trying to look tough on terror shouldn't necessarily be construed as "having the same view".
You were lied to, and you believed it. That's tragic. What's more tragic is, you're clinging to the lie.
