I keep reading your posts and it is pretty clear that you are deceiving yourself as you are just a liberal worried about your 401k or someone else's tax money that you think belongs to you. The hell with how many people we may have saved, or the hell with changing the balance of power in a part of the world that needed it, it seems to me that it is all about YOUR buck to you.

"Don't buy it. Sorry." Don't care that you don't buy it. And not surprised that you cannot state why you don't buy it. "just that we diverted precious resources such as soldiers and money from hunting real terrorist groups so we could fight in Iraq." I'm glad that a kid like you knows more about our "precious resources" than the guys in charge. How old did you say you were? 20? Sure wish you were in charge. Your intellect far surpasses the combo of Bush, Rice, Powell, Wolfowitz, Cheney and the rest, I am sure. "Even GWB had his little "Mission Accomplished" show in May. That was truly ridiculous." After our troops demonstrated the awesome capabilities of the United States and we took control of Iraq in a matter of weeks (while the dems and liberal press were saying that we were losing), I think a thank you to the troops and stating that the "main combat operations" were over (which they were) was well in order. That it infuriates you haters is more telling than the fact that there would be more work to be done. >Bush has said from the beginning that we need to be in for the long haul. (srexley) "He did not. He has lately, though." zofy When you have to lie to make your point it should trouble you. He has said the war on terror would be a long operation from the very beginning. When something will be difficult, but is extremely important, America will do it. That the demos and pinheads like you do not agree says a lot about you imo. Oh no, it will be hard, we better ignore it. Or as you say put more of our "precious resources" in a country we have already liberated is ridiculous. Oops, I forgot, you are way smarter than those that are in charge. "It is possible to figure out this sort of thing (cost of a war before it happens)" No it isn't. That you think it is tells much about your level of intellect. How do you suggest that all considerations in a world wide war that may take 10 to 15 years to win could be predicted accurately? You know that it could not, so you lie that it could. Possible that you are so stupid that you think this could be predicted, but the fact that you can type indicates you probably know that it cannot. The reasons the dems wanted him to predict is so they could say he was wrong. The reason they criticize for him not doing it is because they are assholes (the ones that do say it could have been anyway). "I disagree (that hard work and education allows you to prosper in America). This does not surprise me that you don't believe this in the least. But it is true none the less. "5.7% unemployment, but many "discouraged", underpaid, underemployed... the picture isn't very good" Only the doubters and haters of America can say that the picture isn't very good. I wish I could convince more people to abandon the this place sucks attitude, but many are of this mindset, and they pay the price with their own misery. Live in another country if you don't like your prospects here. That way we will have a higher percentage of doers and positive people, and you can bring down the psyche and drain resources from another country.
