Blame/punish Bush, absolve Saddam of all wrongs, give back Kuwait to Iraq, restore the Taliban to power.
How much of the damage to Iraq came from it's own population.

You may be a US Citizen, therefore Bush answers to you. By inference, you are to blame.

What I am trying to do, from a unique point of view, is solicit opinions on an important topic.

I supported the war...I supported the removing saddam and his sons.

I still support the president.

That point of View is a programmed point of view, hardly a unique one at all.

What would cause you not to support the president?

If he became a democrat ;)

Seriously though, I am mostly happy with what is going on in this country and the job he is done.

I guess the big thing I want addressed is all the jobs being sent overseas.

I could still change my mind, but its something Congress needs to address, not just the President.

No president can be tried for any offical acts while president.That is our law.
Anyhow Bush has opened a can of worms and now Kerry will have to see it thru to the end. Saddamn will be tried by some world court if Kerry is elected.If he is not convicted he will be free to return to Iraq I am sure unless the people there ban him from that.
If they hold elections he will not win and he has too many enemies to stay there while not in power. I doubt he will want to go back.

Sure they can...its called impeachment

Maybe the World Court will let Saddam go on legal technicality..."illegal search and siezure"??

There are many mass graves that have proven what happens to the many enemies of Saddam
How are you going to impeach Bush after Kerry is elected already hmmm?

Go-

you have an interesting argument. Technically it's missing a few facts I believe. There were a number of UN resolutions that formed the legal basis for the war, they are not all based on WMD.

So I don't think there is a legal necessity to return Saddam to power.
