America needs a Republican Congress

My last comment is about the war. Yes it is bullshit as Bush went with old "intelligence" to try and make it out that Saddam was making weapons of mass destruction. Several movies have been made to prove this fact. Bush went in before the inspectors could do their job. Many inspectors knew when Colon Powell went before the UN holding up viles and showing charts and satellite photos of mobile chemical plants that the information was old and outdated. Then when that blew up in their face they said that Al Qeada and Saddam were connected. Now we are at liberated Iraq which has been shown to be a disaster. Saddam was not good nor should he have stayed in power but many, mnay other countries (with better military) are much worse off than Iraq was. Bush used 9/11 as a gateway to the Middle East and he should be ashamed as the true responsible ones are still out there and growing stronger. The families of victims 9/11 should be standing up and not staying silent. Bush has made too many enemies and no all Republican/Democrat Congress can help. Bush has ****ed us for year, and years to come.

And just as many respectable people say different than Clark and crew....

Knew better than to take Saddam out?? Hardly the case for HW Bush (Plans were already in place for the move into Baghdad and the removal of Saddam, with Schwarzkopf ready to go). It was to appease the UN and other Arab states. The UN wanted a show of power on their supposed authority with the hopes that they would be able to leash Saddam. Those who knew the type of tyrant Saddam was knew he would never fully be leashed. Removal of Saddam was inevitable after the Kuwaiti invasion by him. And I will still contend that whether it was W Bush or anyone else that rightfully finished the job, it would have still be the right course.

Well I somehow believe people with no political agenda rather than those who do about our safety. Watch some of these documentaries and you will be sicken as the way our government ignores the safety measures of our most lethal terrorist spots such as nuclear power plants.

Bush I was advised not to take out Saddam by Cheney and Richard Clark and now you see why. It wasn't just to appease the UN. We put Saddam there in the first place.

We put his coup into place, where he took control and executed parlimentary Iraqis as he had them escorted from the room???

Puh-lease


and to say Richard Clark has no political agenda, is ludicrous

The Patriot Act has been shit and really hasn't changed anything since 9/11.

they why are the libs so dead-set against it? Because it might infringe on your civil rights!? Phfttt. Sorry. Keep your fuggin' nose clean and you have a lot less to worry about, don't you?

And please find me one Democrat that is asking for the IMMEDIATE withdrawal of troops

Go talk to egoc on The NFL Forums. Actually, there are a handful of people that want immediate withdrawal over there.

Lynch, how dare you let politics be discussed on strike3. Shame on you!

I guess he figures baseball season is over and the board has been dead, so any discussion is welcome at this point

[CincyRedsFan30]

The United Nations has become a joke.

In essence it is a waste of space.

Way too wimpy and clueless.

Oh, and the same intelligence Bush used in order to invade Iraq because it was thought there were WMD's there was backed by Kerry, until it became convenient for him to say it was a mistake to go there.

Of course we know Kerry uses flip-flops more than someone on a hot, sandy beach all day.

As long as it's the offseason, and there's not too much tree-hugging going on, and it's kept civil, fine. It'll be over soon anyway.

[HollywoodLeo]

I think it's kinda funny how most of strike3 seems to lean towards the right, while most of tnf leans towards the left.

[Lynch]

That is a bit odd.

I got called 3 times yesterday by the Republicans wanting us to vote. They sure are trying to mobilize.

[DiamondDave]

I have about 5 messages on my phone each day when I get home from work. I'd say about 60-40 so far from Republican candidates.

I know I am a target demographic. I'm a middle aged fiscally conservative moderate republican in a traditionally blue state. I'm on the gallup poll. I make better than average income. I'm a single dad. I'm ex-military.

And Lynch... why in the hell did you have to even mention the uber-libertard egoc??? That pot-smoking marxist was completely out of my mind, and you had to mention his lard arse. I know he is still over there spewing his extremist, conspiracy theory, whack-job agenda, but out of sight out of mind was better than remembering that he even existed.

[DiamondDave]

BTW.. this is pretty funny... not REALLY on subject.... but as a vet I have to appreciate a pic of soldiers responding to Kerry

"I voted for it...before I voted against it."

The Iowa joke caucuses first voted for Kerry. Thereafter, the other states (excluding Vermont and any other homer state) had to vote for him as a unifying nomination. In their defense, they were picking from the weakest group of Democratic presidential candidates since RFK was assassinated right after winning the California primary, making Hubert Humphrey the frontrunner.
