They can think I'm made entirely of butterscotch for all I care, we are not at war. The declaration of war was made by a vote of congress and the war was over May 1, 2003 as declared by George W. Bush on the USS Lincoln. If the war wasn't supposed to be over then, he shouldn't have said it was.

No one has the list, so no one knows who has been victimized. As soon as the list is made available, those on the list can file charges.

I'm sure if your wife was raped and one of his buddies photographed it, you'd want the rapist AND the photographer. And if I had the audacity to call it a red herring, I hope you'd deck me one.

If that's your view, TFPolitics is futile. Did you think we came here to share opinions and gain knowledge or to file charges?

Al quaeda isn't out to get me or you. The organization which has been labeled al Qaeda was out to take down the towers in order to make a statement. Iraqi insurgents aren't out to get me or you. They just want our troops out of their country. Who else is there?

I'd sacrifice anything for a stranger, but moreover, I'd sacrifice myself for the sake of my 'enemy'. If it meant saving the life of someone who wants to kill me, I'd give my life. Why? Because, imho, if there were more people like that there would be no more wars and I lead by example.
Yes, I'd take a bullet for George W. Bush knowing full well the consequences.
