The Poll Number Shows

Fox news (I guess not done by them) just showed:

70 some % approve of admins work against terrorism

 

It has been explained over and over again. The proof that we must get rid of Saddam has been presented daily. Can't you see it? Bush and Powell have explained in terms that anyone with a 5th grade education can see that if we don't get rid of Saddam he'll be coming across the Mexican border with the communists in a matter of months.

Of course if you have more than a 5th grade education then questioning the evidence is a good thing to do.

 

You have got to be joking. Saddam isn't just some guy who we need to attack each and every one of us personally for the public to recognize that he poses a serious threat to their safety and interests. He rules over a state with WMD, a history of attacking his neighbors in a volatile region, and we recently fought a war with him. Has OBL done anything to you personally? Maybe you know someone killed in the attacks. However, there are tens of millions of Americans who did not know anyone hurt by the 9/11 attacks but I bet nearly all of them would support our actons to "remove" him and attack his organization.

You also fail to realize that the two questions are directly connected to eachother. If you ask the same question but first said "What if Iraq has no WMD or connections to terrorist groups, would removing Saddam be enough of a reason to attack Iraq?" I bet support would drop a great deal. Thus to artificially seperate the rule of Saddam from the weapons which make him a threat is misleading. The article show that only 5% of respondents believe that Iraq doesn't have WMD. You simply can't expect them to isolate that fact from Saddam's rule.

 

Quick, who has killed more Americans, OBL or Saddam? Go ahead, count the Gulf War.

And who are we ignoring?

And who are we attacking?

 

Rebublicans demand a recount...

 

Yes, everyone knows where OBL is and those dastardly Bushies just turn a blind eye

 

So you're admitting that OBL has outwitted the Bushies' attempts to find him and he is still at large while the Bushies focus on Iraq since they can't find OBL. Nice going, George!

 

This sounds like an idea for another pool: how long after the invasion before they find Saddam Hussein?

Judging from the quest for pineapple-face, I'd estimate 2 weeks to find him and another week to drive him out of the French embassy

 

Those depressing polls about Americans' disinformation regarding Iraqis being on the 9-11 flights provide a clue. And the various Bushies' hints about how 9-11 means we have to go after Saddam didn't help either.

For the complete list of questions...

Pessimism about the condition of the nation’s economy continues to grow and, even as war with Iraq seems increasingly inevitable, almost twice as many people say they spend more time thinking about their finances than about war.

 

What did Hitler do to us? It's not like he has done anything to us personally.

BZZZT. Godwin violation, that's a forfeit.

It's not just a good idea. It's the law.

(Ok, I have taken some artistic license with the quote, but you get the point)

 

Now we are ignoring OBL? Please show me the slightest shred of evidence that we are ignoring him. I can show you a war in Afghanistan, worldwide attacks on Al Qaeda, much larger funds for programs designed to protect us from terrorism and attack it on a global scale, and massive public attention focused on OBL and his followers. You have nothing to support this idiotic statement.

Each time you make up these stupid arguments based on lies, it just weakens the few good points you do make.

 

News to verybdog: No one tries to fight conventional wars against the US anymore. You won't find us facing conventional attack from other nations. There is simply no way to attack us successfully using those forces so your analogy is meaningless. We and most of our allies face little threat of WWII-style conventional war.
I won't even try to repeat all of the evidence that shows we are not fighting this war to get Iraq's oil since you are obviously a closedminded fool so there is little point...

If you want to argue that war is immoral fine make that argument but stop trying to make up objective "facts" to support your hatred of Bush and our policy towards Iraq. I wish most of the anti-war types would make their moral stance against war explicit and stop lying to protest the war. You might have a chance of changing some minds but your repeated lies do nothing but widen the gap between the two sides.

 

Let's see F the Afgans, F iraq, F Korea I now think we should be isolationists F the rest of the world. They obviously don't want our interference.

We use all resources for homeland security and for all our people and no one elses.

Have a massive illegal alien hunt and get all non citizens out of the country.

F tourism into this country.

Get the UN out of the US. They will have zero power after we withdraw any way.

We should get out of Nato, not our business.

That will make all the great patriots in this country very happy. No wars for us and F the rest.

All lovers of peace of the US and the world should love that.

Now the arabs can deal with israel. Other people can deal with their enemies and if we have an attack against us. We can just nuke who ever sent them.

Let everyone else face their own faiths
