Seeing our military suffer, makes me want to smack all these peace freaks.
Sure we would all love a world where no one had to fight.

We could plant daisies and sing, but until there are no dictators in the world, this won't happen.

How very true this is, Westi!!!
What about that other question from the critics — the one suggesting George W. Bush is obsessed with Iraq because of the attempt on his father's life? There is a deep, anti-Bush prejudice at work in that suggestion, and it is at odds with all we know about the fact that a number of his most trusted and highly capable advisers have pushed the policies Mr. Bush is following. These advisers were not motivated by daddy-love.
The assassination effort, though, does show Saddam is a berserker. He will risk everything for the sake of getting revenge. If he had succeeded in killing a former U.S. president, the United States might well have gone to war with Iraq then, it has been suggested. A man who would risk so much to satisfy his bloodlust would also happily provide a suitcase nuke to a terrorist on the way to New York City. It's something the critics ought to think about.
