That proves that you have ZERO ethics.

Nonsense. Being persuasive is an important part of the president's job. Now, that doesn't extend to lying, which Bush didn't do. If Bush had lied, I would have a different attitude. But using rhetoric and spin to accomplish your objectives is, in my mind, fair game and part of his responsibility.

Bottom line: I find it acceptable for Bush to spin this information to bring the public along, even though I would have objected had Clinton done the same thing. Not for political reasons, but for the reasons I've mentioned.

That proves that you have ZERO ethics.


Al, can you believe.....talk about being corrupted? He doesn't care how many die so long as the goals of his ideology are accomplished. And they wonder why they are called fascista!
