After months of heated rhetoric slamming President Bush's Iraq policy, the Senate's top Democrat moved into new terrain by declaring the Iraq war a worse blunder than Vietnam.

Thomas is quite right. We are in a huge mess because of the deceit and crimes of the people we entrusted to run and protect our country.

Another war? to disquise the mistakes we just made?? God, I hope not.

Scott, lots of people care.. stop talking like an imbecile. Read up on this feasco. Get a clue. Even better, join up, go to Iraq, and then come back with your new incite into this matter.

"continued re-election of the murderer Ted Kennedy."I didn't know that was national policy? I have to agree with Senator Reid, Iraq is a bigger blunder that Veitnam.

It is a dead horse and the media and the Democrats are still riding it. Both want the war to fail. They would rather see this country lose another war than give anything to Geo. Bush. The hatred for this one person is so deep seated in the Democratic Party because they think he stole two elections and he is a Republican. Hate is a very destructive mechanism,it can go so far as to self-destruck a person or even a nation. I am afraid that is where we are headed in a hand basket.

I think George Bush will be remembered as a fine President who was capable of independent thought. Not like Clinton who had to check 10 polls before he could boink his intern. Oh yeah, Bush wasn't impeached...was Clinton? I honestly can't remember.

'Capable of independent thought?' You have got to be kidding..the wealthy neo-cons behind the big oil and arms companies are the ones pulling the strings that make your muppet president walk and talk.Bush started an illegal war in Iraq,killing tens of thousands of people and wasting billions of dollars, and you think that was the makings of a 'fine President'?! Open up your eyes!! President Bush is a murdering liar, and the whole world is worse off because of Bush. IMPEACH BUSH NOW!!

George Bush will never be impeached because he is right and has always been right. Rumsfeld was right too. Cheney is always right. There is no such thing as an illegal war. Iraq broke UN sanctions and paid the price. If Clinton had done his job in the 1990s then we would not have needed to invade Iraq. George Bush was right when he said "Mission Accomplished" back in 2003. The war ended as soon as we defeated the Iraqi armed forces and toppled the Hussein government. We are not at war with Iraq, for God sake, we are helping them rebuild their nation after years of tyranny under a brutal dictator. Oh yeah, one more point, liberals are idiots and traitors.

Are you kidding me? This war failed before it even started because it was based on flat out LIES. Our men and women,and innocent Iraqi's are dying in vain. You like those bloodstains on your hands?

You mean the war that ended in 2003, remember, "Mission Accomplished". It was a brilliant success. I am surprised you missed it. It was on all the news channels. George Bush, Dick Cheney, and Donald Rumsfeld led us to a swift and decisive victory. Actually, if the reconstruction of Iraq lasts through 2009, maybe we could ammend the constitution to let George Bush serve another 4 years. Oh yeah, one more point, liberals are idiots and traitors.

I like how you end each post with the same line. How original. I don't feel that way about conservatives. I may not agree with them much, but I know many conservatives who are fine, decent people. We just don't agree politically.

I am sure you will go to your grave declaring Bush to be one of the greatest presidents we ever had. There are a few in this country that still feel that way about Nixon.

This nightmare is almost over. At least, I hope it is. It will take years to undo the damage this president has caused. Years.

But, fellow Americans, when things are tough, we are at our best. We've seen dark days and we will see some more, I am sure. I believe in the American spirit. I believe we are a nation of good, hard working, people who want to do the right thing. We have just lost our way a bit. We have been led to the edge of the cliff by the worst president this country has ever seen. He is not a bad, evil man- I don't buy that. And I don't hate him. He is just a supremely BAD president with misguided policies.

Hold on everyone, we will get the ship righted and get America back on track.

Liberals champion causes such Gay rights, Feminism, and Atheism. These causes have an appeal for those who believe in killing a baby for the sake of a 9 month inconvenience. Liberals support the ACLU exclusively. These causes appeal to those in touch with their feminine side. Women generally think with emotion, their feelings, and sensitivity, not with logic or facts. Liberals are shrill in nature, they love free speech as long as it only THEIR speech. Liberals have an “In your face” attitude. Liberals hate guns or anything that could be considered masculine in nature. Liberals hide behind big government for protection.
Liberals have no character values. Honesty, Courage, Self-discipline, Integrity, Perseverance, and Citizenship are words without meaning to Liberals. If it weren’t for hypocrisy Liberals would have no code to live by.
Is it really so surprising that much Liberal rhetoric echoes that of Al Qaeda and other groups that hate America?
So who are the 68%? A bunch of scared selfish little girls.
Who Are the 32%
Conservatives champion causes such as Freedom, Religious Freedom,(not freedom FROM religion), and a Strong Military Defense.
Cons are logical thinkers and use their brain for decision making. Most conservatives are more mature in age and have more life experiences to use for their decision making. Conservative are masculine and God-fearing. Conservatives are Capitalists and believe that it is the individual that is in control of their own destiny. Conservatives are brave and serve in our country’s military.
Conservatives deplore hypocrisy. Conservatives live by a code of values. Honesty, Courage, Self-discipline, Integrity, Perseverance, and Citizenship are values that Conservatives live by.
So who are the 32%? The brave men and women in our military, Thank you for your service.
Dude, the cut and paste is getting a little old. Try thinking up some new bullshit. I'm telling you, it only re-enforces the notion that many liberals have of conservatives being mindless zombies.

And oh yeah, if you ever need legal help, drop me a line. I am a card-carrying member of the ACLU and the organization helps all Americans, without prejudice. The ACLU has one primary goal- protecting the rights of Ameican citizens. That's it. Sometimes some of the cases they take on are controversial, but that is the primary goal. We are here to help all Americans.

Actually, I was stationed in Pensacola, Fl during the election and stood on the steps of the Escambia County Courthouse and demanded all absentee ballots be counted. I personally helped George Bush win the election over Algore and his liberal nuts. If I have my way, the constitution will be changed to bless this nation with another 4 years under George Bush.

Ok. A much larger "popular" vote installed Adolph Hitler, he did'nt have to rely on the Courts!
