This is the person that leads the greatest nation in the world and what he said yesterday..."The credibility of this country is based upon our strong desire to make the world more peaceful, and the world is NOW more peaceful after our decision." Excuse me Shrub, but your whole premise was to attack Iraq because of Saddam's WMDs, because if you wanted to make the world more peaceful, let me point out that N. Korea even brags that they have WMDs and we have found it necessary to base US troops on their border since the early 1950's...so why do we attack a Stone Age country? Why if making the world more peaceful, we allow Saudi Arabia to fund and supply the terrorist...And why, if the world is now more peaceful, does even Fox News show all the bombing and carnage taking place in the Middle East. I find it amusing that he says the credibility of this "country" is based on a desire for peace, but I notice he didn't say anything about "his" credibility.

Film footage shown on NBC tonight, reflects where this country is going. And just for the record it was police that shot the footage...so can't say this was a conspiracy. Event happened in Shreveport, La. when a man ran a traffic light (Laura Bush ran a stop light and killed another person and wasn't even given a citation for running the red light)and he pulled over..got out of his car holding a cell phone in his hand and turned and was walking AWAY from the police officers. Remember...he ran a traffic light! Remember he was walking away from the police officers...and they shot him 15 times IN THE BACK. Did I mention in the BACK and he was BLACK? And now the black community is up in arms and the white community is all for Supporting the BADGE!!! And we have SIers posting that Rush Limbaugh's and his ilk are offering us entertainment with their race baiting tirades and mockery of justice in this country. Support the BADGE...but what about those wearing the badge shooting a man 15 times in the BACK! Now just think what these white protestors with their posters promoting BACK the BADGE would be saying if a white man was the victim of this execution. Yep!!! Racial hatred and public executions of traffic light runners. Amazing, these same police officers could see the man running a traffic light, but couldn't see when standing within a few feet of the man that he had a cell phone in his hand and that he was walking away from them... And what is so tragic, the police footage clearly shows one officer, standing directly behind the man, taking dead aim at the man's back and shooting over and over again.
