He wasn't threatening us nor any allies. There are many more dangerous characters in the world....yet we do nothing. That wasn't our fight.
Which goes back to the bad intelligence that we recieved. We were led to believe that he was indeed a active dangerous character who was funding terrorist.
Nope....that's not true.

The intelligence we recieved said that he was funding and harboring Al-Quida terrorist, and was believed to have a connection to 9/11. Of course this was proven false.

Bush seems obsessed with toppling down non-democratic regimes... If you don't come to democracy, democracy comes to you.CptJSparrow
I think he is using the Code of the U.N. If that's what it is called. He mentioned it in his U.N speech earlier today.
1. Went into a war claiming (weapons of mass destruction) and then changed his mind after the fact
We went to war when congress approved it. The Dems also said Saddam had WMD's and had to be stopped
2. Left people behind after hurricane katrina(some of the **** still isn't cleaned up)
The Federal Gov. approved approx 60-90 Billion dollars but it didn't get disspersed at the state level
3. US economny in massive amounts of debt (thanks for billion dollars spent on war a week)
War is costly, what did you think would happen ?
4.Wiretapping, patriot act etc
Wiretapping only for suspected terrorists. It wasn't done on innocent Americans....like the media would like you to believe
5. After all the money spent looks like u guys r going to lose the iraq war( vietnam anyone? win every major battle but lose in the end)
Thats what happens when a war is run by politicians. That's what happened in Vietnam
6.Numerous firings or resigns from his administration
Normal for every administration
7. More hate ppl the us then before he was in power
Were are not in a popularity contest. People have always and will always hate the US

That is a very informative link. I am going off of the News programs I have seen over the past 4 years. Mostly ABC National News, I like to keep up with the war. I was only 14 when the war started so I might not be able to remember the earlier parts and now I am 19.

Thank you for saying this. We would be doing a lot better if the politicians weren't acting like they knew more than the Generals.
He sure is hilarious Quadrifoglio
I support him, but man does he make some good jokes on David Letterman.

Technically suspected terrorists are innocent americans till proven guilty...so either your country has started to head down a very dangerous road where u r guilty til proven innocent, or u are wrong. And as for number 7, how do u think you will stop terrorism if u just make more enemies? think about it, for every terrorist you kill, 2 more pop up in his/her place because they are pissed off at your actions.
