<Where do you get off slamming the Bush 41 for having supported Saddam, while equally condemning Bush 43 for overthrowing Saddam?>
What I'm pointing out, is the hypocrisy, the way this humanitarian argument suddenly comes to the forefront, after being ignored for decades. What you, and the President, don't understand, is that nobody is going to believe you, if you keep changing your reasons every year (and sometimes every day). Any standard of morality, any set of rules for behavior, have to be applied consistently and universally. Tell us one thing today, and a different thing tomorrow; apply one set of rules to your friends, and a different set of rules to your enemies, and none of your reasons will be believed.
And the further hypocrisy, that the only massacres the War Party sees, are the ones that happen where the ground is soaked in oil, in addition to blood. |
