So since you ALSO supported the invasion, you'll be voting for Kerry then, right?

S. 1689, the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Iraq and Afghanistan Security and Reconstruction was ill-written...no oversight...ask Halliburton about $1.8 Billion.

"I agree completely with this Administration's goal of a regime change in Iraq...."

That's not an agreement to launch an invasion that would only satisfy an idiot as shrub did.

Not an agreement to plug the con-artist chalabi into Iraq.
Not an agreement to install a thug like allawi.

Not an agreement to blunder 1/2 assed through the last year and a half.

"I voted to threaten the use of force to make Saddam Hussein comply with the resolutions of the United Nations."

When you threaten the use of force you actually have to say you're going to use it and act like you're going to use it...that's what makes it a threat.
Kerry was saying it and acting like it. Do you KNOW it was more than a threat on his part? No...you don't.

Threats against a saddam hussein are fine. But if you're going to follow through with it...don't do it like the idiot shrub has.

Would Kerry have gone beyond threats? There's no way to know.

Would Kerry have screwed it up as badly as shrub? There's no way to know.

But we DO know how badly shrub has screwed it up.

It's impossible to imagine that anyone could have screwed it up any worse.

They buried a soldier in my county yesterday who had a family and was killed in Iraq. Killed by George Bush in his dam war. You can be flip and support that madman but people are dying. For nothing. Moron.

A President comes into office and from day 1 has his eyes set on Iraq (Mr O'Neill, his Treasury Secretary)

He made public remarks that Saddam is a bad man because "he tried to kill my Father."

Cheney is very averse to make public what he does or tells people. He like Osama, went underground after 9/11. I can understand Osama going underground. But I do not understand why Cheney went underground and what instructiions he gave to the CIA from there about doctoring the intelligence reports.

That Cheney and Bush politicized the intelligence community here in the US is borne by ythe fact that reports on which the recent terror alerts are based are three years old. Why weren't those alerts reported then and instead the alert that Saddam had WMDs was considered more reliable?

Say what. You think the American people are stupid to believe all this from Bush and Cheney? A good combination indeed, one is an idiot the other is a crook. LAzarus, you figure out which one is which.
