A POLICY isn't the same as an INVASION Billy! There are leaders all over the globe that we'd like to see gone, and have POLICIES that urge the same. Only the chimp was itching to invade the place. ("He tried to kill MY DAD!") Some people just don't have the requisite wisdom to be granted any power. The Iraq failure is his legacy. I hope the historians judge him accordingly.

Yes, the Neocons are the extreme version of the 'I'd prefer Saddam Hussein, murderous dictator and all around US backed thug, not be in office.' Have you read the ILA? Does it say we're going to invade and topple Saddam? How much money does it allocate? How much money have we earmarked and spent already on Iraq? The Neocons didn't (don't) just want to topple a 'muslim' dictator, they want to destroy OPEC, cripple the financial status of 'islam' and make the ME safe for American-Israeli Hegemony. They're extremists and they used the power of 300 million citizens for their own personal ends without a lick of conscience or remorse. Gee. That's the modern version of imperialism. Let's go and ask the Not-So-Great-Britain how well imperialism turns out.
