Bush has gotten away with so much so far. 9-11 was the best thing that ever happened to him, along with his brother being Gov of Florida. I believe the oil cronies of Bush rigged the 2000 election by creating the phony energy crisis, rocking the economy, gouging us to death then allowing Bush-Cheney to tell us Clointon had no energy policy and they were the ones who knew how to fix it. "Fix" being the key word there. The Big Fix has been in since 2000. And too many Americans have been blind to it. Not by accident though, Enron and the GOP spent many millions on TV ads in 2000-2001 blaming the energy crisis on Democrats. A complete lie of course but it created just engough doubt in peoples' minds, thus allowing them to get away with it. Bush has also staffed FERC with his cronies so those ripped off by the energy companies like Enron cannot get refunds. Their little "tort reform".

N. Korea is a bigger threat than Iraq now. Naturally, because NK has nuclear weapons already while Iraq is only still trying to build them. But for those trying to list threats in their proper order, don't worry. If we just give Saddam enough time, he too will have nuclear weapons and THEN he will be the bigger threat once more. For those who think that's desirable.
