<< Yet, the Bushies have seemingly managed to piss off the whole planet. >> Shows how shallow most of the world is. North Korea starves it's own people. Not even a whimper from the world. Cuba exports terrorism and cruelly enslaves it's people. Most of the world sings the praises of Castro. Iraq invades Kuwait. Not a whimper from the world, until after America led the way. And now Iraq and North Korea pose a significant threat to all countries in the area, and to world peace, and only America and England stick their necks out to try and stop the danger of WMD in the hands of madmen. But, you say that America pisses off the planet? President Bush shows more backbone and courage than all the so called leaders of the world piled on top of each other. So, the weak kneed of the world find it easy to knock America and President Bush, but tremble if they are confronted with having to say anything bad about the tyrants.

I don't know were it was from, we are south of Fort Hood, so it may have been. Seems odd they could move that much stuff , and not one photo of it in any news paper, or on any TV ..right through city after city in daylight too. -- This thing is likely to happen just when people think it has blown over. I can't follow it close enough to have any idea of what's really happening. I do hear a lot of rhetoric that I know is off base. -- The first is from the Bush camp making Saddam the big evil focus, ( like the whole problem is with him personally ) while I know things don't work like taht..Saddam could die tomorrow and the problem would not go away, in fact it might get worse. On the other hand, the contention this is a BUSH war is also way to shallow, things just don't happen that way. -- The relationship between the CIA and KBG has more to do with this than either man, & I doubt if half of the insiders know where that stands.
