"...sat back and watched as he's run up the federal deficit; led us into a horrific, no win war in Iraq..." The fact that fighting for freedom and safety costs money (AND LIVES) is hardly a valid argument not to value these things. As to the war...it was over and done and WON in an incredibly short time. The army surrendered and the Government was replaced. That war is WON. That war is OVER. Then American troops can come home. As to the humanitarian effort to prevent the religious fanatics from throwing the entire Middle East into chaos for decades to come--well....THAT commitment to humanity and to western longterm interests is a commitment worthy of civilized nations--the U.S. being foremost among them and recognized as such by her allies. Bush is not conducting a humantarian effort in Iraq. Nations of the world are interfering in myriad locations on our fine planet to prevent bloodshed and genocide--and the victory of sheer force over human rights. We don't bastardize these attempts and attainments--RIGHT?? I can't try to control what other nations do; only the one in which I am a citizen. As to the global warming/freezing issue. This is a cycle which has existed forever or damn near. The ozone layer is created by sunlight, and so long as the sun exists the ozone layer will be repaired. Global warming per se is not a concern to educated people. It is inevitable. The concern is that we may be able to ameliorate the RATE of change and that we may well be advised to...a concern but no deal breaker. Most of these horrific lamentations by the Leftist leaders are attempts to get free points for j-rk--- off. Global warming has little to do with the ozone layer. You need to read up and find exactly what it is. Back to Iraq. We could leave these savages alone. But where, then, are your tears and enmity for the dozens of other nations intervening around our globe to disarm many many mad bastards scattered to the four corners? Who are these "dozens of nations" you keep pointing out?
