The criminal leader

well said merk, at least you're honest and i salute you. if only bush would be so honest. i can understand intervention to take away economic resources from an enemy of a state. it is still not very nice, but sometimes you do have to crack a few eggs to make an omlet. however this still doesn't justify the fact that america is still not starting to gradually withdraw troops from irak but worse still it is planning to bring more.

I will have to disagree with you on that one Zahl. "No Left Turns" should be the motto for moving ahead in Iraq. Violence in Bagdad is already weakinging and most importantly, if we fail to secure a friendly governemnt in Iraq, we will have failed in our most strategically important security initiative since the Cold War and second most since WWII. Strategically speaking, the ME is far more important than Vietnam or Korea was.

I am afraid those days are long gone. We have elected that bushwhacker twice and I would not be suprised if another republican buys off enough people to win again. With people like that in office, the moral standing of the US goes down the tube. It's a sad century for america.

Those days were long gone well before Bush got into office.

I fear your standards for the US are much too high. Also the comparisons with Bush/Hitler or any other dictator/madman are far fetched. I'm no fan of Bush or anyone in his administration, but they're not evil. They may be greedy, self centered, manipulating, controlling, egotisitcal, holier-than-thou neocons, but they're not evil.

Bush is no better or wor ...[text shortened]... d spend some time studying former President Nixon if you want to see a truly paranoid nutjob.

yes, of course them comparisons are far fetched. and most of them are for effect. you cannot compare bush to hitler as you cannot compare a 17th century musket to an ak47 basely on their common trait as weapons. bush is not evil. i am so against bush because he runs the most powerful country in the world, not togo or whatever.

but the bad thing is that things are going worse rather than stagnating or improving. from reagan to bush sr to clinton to bush jr. bush sr was slighlty better than the last two though.

i was wondering, where do you shop for hats? do you find any to fit your head? or where do you keep your ego? do you have a special oil tanker somewhere in alaska?

50%? are you referring to the "50%" from the 2000 elections? are you reffering to 50% of all americans or 50% of the 10% that actually showed up at the voting booths. do these 50% include the ...[text shortened]... rica is one of the best countries in the world, it's people like you and bush who ruin it.

This is not about me or my hat size -- this is about you being bitter, angry, resentful and so morally confused that you consider the President of the United States evil.

The dislike for each other is growing on both sides of the ocean. It goes both ways.

he is not evil, i have said it before. the village idiot is not evil, but he is dangerous anyway.
