So very, very true. Like Bush, Patriot Games refuses to understand that. Nor will they accept responsibility for it. > bush,jr promised that if he > were elected he would not > engage in "nation Building". > He LIED. Bush lied (and is still lying) many, many times. Patriot Games cannot deal with the truth. There is truly something fucking sick about the neocons who are still raving against Clinton lying about a blow job -- yet continue to rant their support for Bush lying the United States into a needless and illegal war that has killed thousands of American soldiers, tens of tens of thousands of Iraqi people, and wounded hundreds of thousands of both. The number of dead and wounded because of Bush's lies continue to grow everyday. Yet these FOOLS still moronically complain and try to make A Issue about Clinton's penis. There are many seriously psychological ill and ethically corrupt Republicans and reactionary right-wingers in the United States of America who are actually the real un-Americans . -Tom Sr. Quote

You can't cherry-pick citizenship. Whether one supported or supports the War, or not, we're ALL Americans and we (should) all want a successful conclusion, peace in Iraq, and our sons and daughters home. > bush,jr promised that if he > were elected he would not > engage in "nation Building". > He LIED. I'm fairly certain when he was campaigning he was thinking about that sweet budget surplus, some tax cuts to make folks feel better and smooth sailing for 4 years.... Quote
