"Disneyland" for this turkey = "going to the farm" for your childhood pet.

I'm sorry -- the look on that guy's face just cracks me up. |

Yes, Tom, I hold the power of life, death, and the freezer compartment.
More presidents and turkeys.
Ford never struck me as a cruel man, but this seems a bit like taunting to me . . . .

Great. So after getting her son killed unnecessarily, he wants to kill the mom, too? Is this compassionate conservatism?

I am sorry but the "court of public opinion" does not have any procedural rules. I know people use the word "court" but what you have to understand is that it is not a real court.
Bush truly believed that Saddam Hussein had WMDs and he used whatever tools he had to convince the American public of that. Where is the lie?
You may think cherry picking is "not cool" but that does not make it a lie. What makes it a lie is if Bush did or did not believe it. Obviously we can't read his mind, but do you really believe that Bush believed there were no WMDs? |

It is nice to see that you save your rare posts on this board for something substantive. |

His belief needs to be objectively reasonable. Clinton might have truly believed that he didn't have "sexual relations" with Monica, but none of us bought that crap, either.
eta: Nice to see your tacit admission that W is less intellectually honest than the trial lawyers you love to bash.

Millions of very grateful Iraqis, and I, would hardly call it "unnecessarily." "Bravely", and "in service to freedom", and, of course, "sadly", but not unnecessarily, unless you belong to the New Isolationist Party.
Oh, right. You do. |

Most of us would have it no other way. Taking no action and then being wrong means we're going to find out about those weapons the hard way. |

Millions of Iraqis want us out, and the government just called for the U.S. to set a timetable for withdrawl. I thought you wanted democracy in Iraq. You support subverting the will of the people there, too?
The call for U.S. withdrawl also stated that "national resistance is the legitimate right of all nations." Sounds like the Iraqi people favor the insurgency over the U.S. occupation. Maybe we should think of getting out.
