I see, your point was that the President and Sec of Defense did not have combat experience - SO you wrote false statements about Sec. Rumsfeld's military service: Claiming first that Sec. Rumsfeld never was a pilot and not in the Navy - that claim was proven false; So, you claim that Sec Rumsfeld's military service involved spy satellites in the 50's - that claim is false (as the United States didn't have any such satellites in the 50's); So you finially change your story and said that what you meant is that Rumsfeld lobbied for SDI. Your point is the United States removing Saddam and invading Iraq is only about oil: So You falsely stated that Iraq had pumped the second most oil in the world - that was proven false. So you claim, that you meant, was that Iraq had the second largest proven reserves of oil in the world - but when that was proven false. So now you claim that someday, Iraq may, someday have proven reserves, greater than Saudi Arabia - of course no one knows until more exploration is done. You keep harping on Bush being from an elite family. I doubt that supporters of Bush dispute that. What they argue, is that Bush identifies more with the non elites than Kerry: because his children attended public school, because of the background of his wife (she attended and taught in public schools), because he went attended Midland's public elementary schools - and knows firsthand the difference in the education offered by public schools versus expensive prep schools. You never did say whether or not you supported George H. W. Bush and Bob Dole (both combat veterans) over President Clinton - since combat service is so important to you...
