    We all know Newt is unelectable...

    They are all the same, politicians beholden only to the special interests which fund their campaigns & make it possible for them to retain power. They don't believe in anything other than keeping the wool pulled over the sheeps eyes.

    Bush brings democracy to the ME

    True, u cannot definitively point to Iraq as the sole reason for the current uprisings, but it's worth noting this did not happen until there was a democratic Iraq. Can you think of any other factor whose influence could be as significant?

    Ominous: The US deficit vs the dollar

    Bush's answer to stimulate the economy after 911, fire up the presses and lower rates to dump the money into the system, mostly through mortgages. We all see how well that turned out in the end/

    Bush brings democracy to the ME

    Iraq was a thriving democracy before Saddam? When was that time period? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_pre-Saddam_Iraq Yes, Bush also criticized previous administration policy, I'm sure he is happy you agree with him.

    Ominous: The US deficit vs the dollar

    I remembered this thread, trying to enlighten people on the investment potential for Silver. I suggested you buy when it was at $7.50 an ounce, what's it trading at now btw: http://www.kitco.com/market/ Well, over $37 an ounce, not a bad return for a <7 year investment. Of course I'm sure...

    Bush brings democracy to the ME

    "Iraqi democracy will succeed," President George W. Bush declared in November 2003, "and that success will send forth the news from Damascus to Tehran that freedom can be the future of every nation." The audience at the National Endowment for Democracy in Washington answered with hearty...

    I've never voted republican on a presidential ballot, & democrats have only gotten 1 of my votes, Clinton in 96. I would have voted for McCain in 2000 but Bush unleashed one of the most effective smear campaigns in modern history & sadly got the nomination.

    I am too old for service & I do not have a son who is old enough. Yes I am willing to pay extra taxes to help rebuild Iraq. The cost to rebuild Afghanistan is more of a burden, Iraq has resources that will greatly contribute to their transition. You seem to be the one who is clinging to a...

    What event caused AT's P&N forum to be created...?

    Sorry but the burden of proof was on Saddam. He accepted UN resolutions as part of a conditional cease fire during the liberation of Kuwait. Was Kuwait part of Saddam's box? I'm sorry Saddam failed to meet the requirements he willingly accepted, at least according to both Ritter & Blix. That has...

    What's the point of the war in Afghanistan?

    How much damage did 9/11 do to our economy? What was used to get it moving again? A substantial increase of the money supply fed into the system through bad mortgages/credit lines. We don't owe Afghanistan anything for our support of them in their resistance to Soviet occupation. Once the...

    The burden of proof was never on Bush, Saddam accepted that willingly. Saddam stated himself that he intentionally mislead UN Inspectors & intelligence agencies into believing he still had stockpiles of WMD. The intent was primarily as a deterrent to Iranian aggression. He also tried to maintain...

    You're just ignoring the report the Blix made to the UN security council detailing Iraq's failure to comply & the WMD that were never accounted for in any way. You also ignore Ritter's determination that Iraq had obstructed inspectors & tried to retain the ability to quickly manufacture new...

    Ritter reiterated his claim that Iraq had obstructed the work of inspectors and attempted to hide and preserve essential elements for restarting WMD programs at a later date. If he was right, you were wrong. Clinging to Ritter when he was out of the picture in 1998 while ignoring Blix who...

    Ritter was before Blix, how could he know what happened after 1998? Blix was quite clear that Iraq was not cooperating fully as they were required, and agreed to unilaterally. Ritter was an avid anti-war advocate, yet he still wrote this just one year after leaving Iraq: "In 1999, Ritter...
