Why aren't we invading those places, kicking out their tyrants, and spreading Democracy?

Dammit, E, you won't answer the question! I don't care if you call yourself a "Whig," now that we have Liberated Iraq, are you glad we did it? Yes or No?

Using, "Well how about the other countries?", is an attempt to change the subject. We can't do everything at once, and we were already in a shooting war with Iraq. The sanctions were collapsing under the Euro pressure, and we had to "shit or get of the pot" there. You know we are applying pressure to other Dictatorships. You may not like how, when, what, and where, and that's fine. That is what we argue about.

But this constant griping about Iraq when you won't state a position is getting tedious.

"I... notice many SI people avoid answering hard questions about this Administration's actions by changing the subject to the L word."

Well, I notice that many folks who lean far "L" tend to
refrain from answering hard questions about the clear
distortions & equivocations they use regarding "this
Administration's actions". Happens all the time.

They seem to prefer clearly biased liberal media
distortions as their source of truth & reality over
verbatim quotes & factual reports straight from the
Administration, that stand in stark contrast to the biased
reporting.
