The Dean Folk are part of a vast left wing conspiracy of Pacifists

lol! I love it.

Especially since (a)Dean doesn't show that he knows how to conspire and isn't a pacifist, (b)even Rumsfeld is worrying that Islamists are now being created by Bush faster than they are taken out, and (c)the cost, just as an example of the Bush approach to taking out a single pathetically disabled American ex-ally like Saddham is something like 500 dead Americans, thousands wounded, eight thousand dead Iraqi civilians, tens of thousands dead Iraqi soldiers, maybe a hundred thousand wounded and $300 billion. Looks incredibly stupid, unless of course you follow where the money actually ends up.

Bush and the gang took their eye of the ball as far as American security was concerned, and did themselves a favor. They also did Osama a favor. He's up in Pakistan cheering as loudly as Bush at Saddham being taken down.

Now, if they'd only stop kissing Saudis in Crawford, who had 15 countrymen and a kinsman among the group that murdered Americans, for some reason. The stated reasons have to do with the US being in Saudi Arabia, and supporting Israel in their attacks on Palestine. But Saudis are too close to the Bush empire, so we'll have to hunt elsewhere, apparently, for "the real killers", and make up other reasons for the attack.

There'd be less to complain about if the level of terrorism were affected, in a downward direction. Then all we could say is that it was a stupidly high price to waste so many tens of thousands of lives and American moral leadership.

Is this guy a conspirator? He does sound angry, tho'. Maybe you can help me determine who he would be conspiring with, and how they would profit.

"Dubya, go slaughter yet another nearly defenseless nation and catch your impotent bad guy and eviscerate your own country's economy and embarrass us the world over and protect your oil cronies and your military portfolio. Get it over with.

By the way, from Bush Sr. forward (and, yes, that includes Clinton), the U.S. has to date killed far, far more Iraqi civilians than Saddam ever could. Along with the United Kingdom, we've been bombing Iraq almost nonstop for the past decade. Not to mention the more than half a million Iraqi children who've died from lack of medicine or decent health care since the brutal, U.S.-backed U.N. sanctions were imposed 12 years ago."
