Well I would judge a person mentally retarded who suggests America is subjugating the people of Iraq. And any person who is not mentally retarded knows one can use any ideas to motivate for good or evil. And it seems there is no end to simple minded fools who talk about some "fear" by associating real facts with ideas in ways one only expects from the mentally retarded. Have I ever read a post by you that was not stuck on stupid??? LOL, it does not really matter.

You put up a link that proves what you said was false. You substituted the word democracy for freedom. And if you really do believe in God (which you claimed in your last post), why would you be offended by the notion that God wants people to be free. Or in a belief by Bush that God wants people to be free. America should promote freedom, and like the quote says, Bush does not want to do it militarily. "The claim that the U.S. government is doing God's work may appeal to many Americans" This is dishonest spin. He clearly states that we (Americans) have a duty to free people. To hate him (as much as OBL) because he believes that God wants people to be free is freakishly unfair, and says a good deal about you. You first switch democracy with freedom, and then dishonestly spin a reasonable statement from Bush into one where the U.S. Government "doing God's work". The U.S. Government is doing it's darn best to eliminate the possibility of Saddam giving aid or weapons to terrorists (ie keeping America safe) and in the process offering freedom and democracy to 25,000,000 folks. You would rather leave the possiblity of Saddam helping terrorists and leave the 25,000,000 people oppressed. There are many like you, and that is sad imo. But why you guys need to lie and spin our President into being the devil is beyond me. "when one considers how declarations of God's will have been used by European-Americans in past eras as rationale for subjugating those who are racially and religiously different, most notably Native Americans, Africans, Chinese, and African Americans" Your generalization is ridiculous. Don't free Iraqis and get rid of Saddam (a good thing) because some bad things were done in the past. Not only don't get rid of Saddam and free the Iraqis, you claim he is the same as OBL for doing so. I'm sure your dishonest "arguments" make you feel better about your hatred of Bush. But all you have to do is read them yourself to see how shallow and empty they are.
