Bush attacks Iraq with faulty intel -- Is he right with attacking Iran?
After Bush bombed and killed over 100,000 Iraqi civilians, killed almost 2700 and maimed over 20,000 of our own troops -- We're a society gone bad if we simply accept Bush at his word for getting it right so quickly about attacking Iran and today it was announced that the general's already have plans in tact for attacking Iran.

Bush (like yesterday) is using the we'll go it alone premise. Do we never learn?!! Would the fever of war be present if the loss of the house or/and senate wern't a domineering factor of the upcoming events that could effect the way this president runs this country?

4. Hey Monkeyman.....the draft dodgers and their ilk will call for
a "Draft" and that's when it's going to get real interesting.

In a report I heard about the Pentagon.....it's broken...it's the worst managed organization in the government....structuraly they wouldn't be able to support another war....

2. It doesn't matter if he is right or wrong....he cried wolf with Iraq
and the world was skeptical....I agree Irans leader is dangerous but is he more dangerous contained or is he and Iran more dangersous if the US attacks Iran.....I think the latter....don't forget Iran supplies Russia and China with their oil supply and they are not going to stand by and do nothing...

9. MadMaddie> Russia and China won't be pleased upsetting oil supply
question is, can that be the Bush logic? Bush attacks Iraq slows down oil output/flow -- do the same by attacking Iran and the problem grows worse causing China and Russia to get a wee bit pissed at Bushco for spreading his free-world democracy gig...

11. That's an interesting question....and I wouldn't put it past
this * cabal to think of something along these lines...they always have a motive for what they are doing...

Both Russia and China have Nukes....

China owns a vast majority of America's debt...if they start calling in what is owed it would devastate the US economy.....

Russia is rethinking the Democracy angle....they are curtailing the freedoms of the Russian people as we speak...

Sadly, I think the * cabal will do anything to stay in power even something as insane as this....

3. * said he was the only one with the guts to invade Iran. No president
after him will have the nerve. Iran needs to be invaded to protect whomever. He's the one.

No - no one ever learns. Amazing isn't it. This clown hasn't told the truth in 6 years and people keep believing him.

18. Perhaps not everyone wants the Bush style of freedom and democracy
he claims the world should practice -- Amerika, where we decide what freedom and decracy is and should be -- a recent visit from a friend from Britain said; " ah you americans and freedom, your freedom is beginning to be realized and understood when one visits youe local 7-11, freedom of choice...

16. what are you talking about? Bush is a lame duck if he loses, therefore
in order to keep a US. middle east presence he must not lose house and/or senate power rendering Bush and Cheney lame duck status, no power moves, investigations a plentyfull!

I'm talking about Bush using the fear-fear-fear-factor to once again accomplish winning and election as he did in 2004 - it's really an instant repeat of remember 9-11 and scare tactics to accomplish not losing power come November...end of story!

17. 15 million in Iraq and the new government can't put together a military
In the US. what do they give our troops? 3-5 months of training tops!! The US. drops 300 billion plus 20,000 maimed, 2689 US. toops killed and our Prez simply states we'll stay the course as long as he's the president? people, we have serious probs with this logic, stay the course, which means for as long as they can get away with it. Somebody is making a lot of billions.

15. It would be foolish to accept the judgement of someone
who has proved themselves to be consistently wrong in the past. God gave us brains, why do we insist on not using them?
