Uh, they don't usually have terrorists planting bombs at the PX at the base in Arizona.

So you're saying that I shouldn't be pissed that my friend could die because President Asshat lied about there being a threat to national security?

How very inappropriate.

and

"The decision to invade Iraq was made as part of a broad strategy to shift the balance of power in the Islamic world, a strategy that will be playing out for years to come."

This conclusion screams conspiracy to me, and the conspirators are the most powerful men and women in the world. Its mind-blowing to me that Carroll can simply shrug it off as if to say "yeah, they lied to the world to go to war, but it doesn't matter." What a dick!

You have a bizarre fixation on the Clintons. You should get some help with that.

Everyone's entitled to their delusions...even if they sound exactly like neo-con talk show talking points.

It's not just him. Every neo-con, from Rush Limbaugh on down, has a fixation on the Clintons. Rush's show would be cut in half if he didn't have Bill Clinton to blame for everything he thinks is wrong.

I am sure you have your dilusions too.

And I gotta start getting paid since my talking points keep getting used by others.

I will say Clinton was the bomb. If I was old enough to vote I would have totally voted for Clinton.

I will say though, granted I'm not a HUGE Bush fan...........none of the candidates in the last 2 elections really made me that excited. I just decided that Bush would be better for me financially and I'd rather have an asshat in the whitehouse let me keep more of my money and not waste it on pointless programs...........than have an asshat in the whitehouse that doesn't do that
