Rob, Japan was submissive and cooperative after the war.

Getting nuked and sustaining millions and millions of casualties during the war may have had something to do with it.

90% of the people in Iraq don't want us to leave. Just because that lie has been told over and over doesn't mean it's true

This citation of Japan after WWII that Bush gave shows his lake of depth and understanding:

My trip to Asia begins here in Japan for an important reason. (Applause.) It begins here because for a century and a half now, America and Japan have formed one of the great and enduring alliances of modern times. From that alliance has come an era of peace in the Pacific. And in that peace, the world has witnessed the broad advance of prosperity and democracy throughout East Asia.

Why isn't Bush being impeached? Where is the outrage?

Our country is sick and ruled by lower mentalities. We get outraged by a pres. who gets a b.j. That is an embarassment and should have been met with scorn. But it was a family affair that didn't bankrupt the country and derail efforts that should have more funding. If we impeach anyone, it shold be Bush for being either deranged, retarded or a liar on issues of national importance.


Agreed. Where IS the outrage? The man should not be allowed to pee in America's name let alone still be president!
