You're an idiot, name one war that has ever been 'legal'.

Funny, I wouldn't be surprised if this thread died with me letting everyone know that I'm NOT a bush supporter, nor am I a kerry supporter. I'm absolutely not kidding, I hate bush and kerry, they're both worthless pricks. Having said that, Iraq != Vietnam and I support this war.

I am fairly certain that statement about following us to our own soil was made either by Rush, or Foxnews...I was listening to it too the other day.
Hell it may have even been GWB during his interview with Rush earlier this week.
pathetic scare tactic if you ask me.
You've proven nothing, all you've done is prove that I'm an idiot by basically telling everyone that you're a liberal. your justification for everything you've said in this thread is either because I'm a troll, an idiot, or I'm basically a bush supporter.

No because you posted nonsense, especially about WWII.
I don't consider myself a Liberal and there are plenty of people who are not liberal who believe that Bushes excellent adventure in iraq is a big fsck up and that Bush is an incompetent president.

Not much. The negatives greatly out wiegh any positives, especially the way this administration has conducted it. Even the overthrow of Hussien seems to have more negatives aspects to it than positive, at least for our security. Granted I care about the Iraqis about as much as they care for Americans which is not much at all.

last night I was watching a panel discussion on C-Span, and some talking head quipped that Saddam is tanned and rested, maybe we ought to stage a military coup and then we can get the hell out of Dodge.
This is exactly why your opinion doesn't matter to me. Yes, bush had a little ADD going on from 9/11 till the attack in '03 of Iraq but not only was he trying to make up for the fact that his daddy screwed it up but that we owed the people. In 1991 we really should have let saddam's reigm fall, we led on the Iraqis to believe that we would be there but instead we backed out and all the resistors were slaughtered horribly because of this, not to mention we setup that piss excuse of a govt. in the 80s.. Iraq is screwed up now and there is much dissent agianst us because we disbanded the police force instead of finding the 'corrupt' one by one, to be honest even I would have made that mistake. They're attacking us because they're pissed off that we ****** them over over a decade ago and the ones who still had the grudge have basically joined the terrorist forces.
In vietnam we took the place of what the french were suppose to be doing, so if you want to blame the french for anything, you can blame them for this.
Vietnam we were scared because of the domino theory, this time we were scared because of what saddam potentially had, it's entirely possible that saddam basically moved out all of the nuclear materials into a foreign country, we may never know. We owe the Iraqi people freedom, the problem is, the terrorists have taken advantage of this situation and basically an all out civil war is happening.
That depends on which side of the war you're on. If you're speaking from the side of the U.S., Europe and our allies in WWII, we didn't have much of a choice about defending ourselves from Hitler's invasion of western Europe or responding to the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor. That was was as deadly as war can get, but if, by "legal," you actually mean "legitimate," that would be it.

Ignorant means not knowing the facts. Stupid is being menatlly incapable of comprehending them, let alone comment on them. You are both. :laugh:
Only because you're incompetent to do so. Go back to your sandbox, little boy. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Generally after a war, there are guerillas who attack the invading forces even though they've lost already. Iraq is different in this sense since the attacks are actually ramping up.
Nonetheless they're both wars, you CAN compare them despite whether or not their merit is questionable.

I guess you are going to do your Bill Clinton semantics game, and instead of answering my statement you resorted to a useless response.
I've meet plenty of uneducated dumb people. The point is the military is less educated than the general public. I said that in my other post.

Funny, that wasn't the reason given by the NeoCons when trying to sell this war to the American public..well not until we didn't find any WMD's.
Why do you think Daddy Bush didn't go into Bahagdad when he had the chance? Because he knew it would have been a big mistake. I didn't see the wisdom of his choice at the time but the way things are going now it seems he was very wise..heads up more on the ball than his dim witted offspring.
Vietnam War ? US dead: 58,209 ; wounded: 153,303
Iraq War Results & Statistics as of November 2, 2006 -- 2,815 US Soldiers Killed, 21,419 Wounded.
The death toll doesn't add up to the 'Vietnam Conflict', however the lies and bumbling looks a lot like Vietnam.

An incompent leadership supporting an unnecessary war where we can't really stay and cant really go. Even the military newspapers are calling out Rumsfeld. Of course it must be "liberals" doing that. You are so early 60's
