We HAD to invade Iraq.

[Dodgingpotholes]

So the US spent $600 billion invading Iraq to squeeze a couple billion of dollars in oil revenue?

Seems like a terrible investment. Or you're just wrong.

Bad investment? Are you kidding me. The oil companies had to take no money out of their pockets for this war and not only recieved over 10 billion in tax breaks but have made record profits.

My point is, this war wasn't about oil. It was probably a consideration, but it didn't play a big part. The world is more complex than you would like it to be.

The were no terrorist and no wmd so if not oil it brings me to my favorite. Let prove my daddy was wrong and I'm the better president.

I not only want them impeached I want them tried as war criminals and hung.

 

[GasMan]

No no no no no.....

This is where you are wrong...

THE WMD were and EXCUSE to get the real carrot. Control in the middle of the middle east.

When you libs realize this and accept the fact that the BIG PICTURE had nothing to do with oil, wmd, etc. you will be much better off.

I am glad we now have an ally in Iraq. No matter what the media wagon will have you beleive, they are friends of the US.

What better place to fight the maniacal muslims but on someone elses soil?

Hope you are starting to get a glimpse of insight to the genius of this move by President Bush and the DEMOCRATIC Congress.

Congress has only been that way 19 months.

Looks like we will be in Afghanistan for the foreseeable future take that plus all the money we send Israel and you have a huge presence in the ME. The whole thing is breaking us and you warmongers cant see past your noses.

The point is Punter is that the war had the support from both Repubs and Dems.

Does not make a difference to me whether or not the country is in deficit or not...my home is safe...my jobplace is safe...and watching my kids sporting activities are safe.

Lets see...you want obama to be elected who is going to give over half a trillion US tax dollars to the rest of the world just because?

 

[punter]

You sir are full of shit.

 

[GasMan]

You sir are full of shit.

Oh really? WHy dont you read about his plan to support the rest of the world. Hmm. Just overlooked that one.

You sir, I bet are a left wing nut. Rob from the rich and productive, and give to the poor and despereate. Free this, free that..no one should have to earn their place in life.
