Haha - yeah thank god for that over-spendin', torture advocatin', war-declarin', rootin-tooting pair of misbehavin' chief executives!
Seriously, I am going to throw a party when those two assholes leave office. Their views on ethics do not match mine. Thank god for people who post statements like this and speak out against what they think is wrong.
Blind faith in bad leaders is not patriotism- an eternal truth! The price for denying it is always the same, just visit the war memorials all over Europa!
How come it seems like NONE of the hardcore Bush fans NEVER had the balls to enlist!I enlisted 3 times.. Artillery:Desert storm, transportation during the Bosnia caper, and I signed up again 3 months after 9/11 and served in an Armor unit! so anyone that calls me a bleeding heart liberal is right, but if you never served, and are pro Bush and pro war, you are a cowardly fag that doesn't deserve a fucking opinion!
I do believe many hc bush fans did serve. And many were disillusioned at what he did to this country. Thinking along that line, what were the hc fans of? The office, not the man. Their crime was just extending what should be honor for the President to Bush.
Bush was your boss. We civs' elected him. And I'm a cowardly fag for not doing MY part as a civilian by removing him; that is not an option afforded to us, but our duty charged to us in the Dec of Ind.
But, that's whut ah went to war for...to keep this kind uf id-jit in cornpone-n-beans, so's he kin do whut evry hillbillie in his family duz on Halloween...pump kin...
Amen to ya bro. TransMiss....that's funneeeeee..pump-Kin...LOL!!! I've been listen'n to Prine for many years... thanks (but it was a cryin' shame what you guys had to go through) for what you did for us in nam...I see you are a musician...we got that in common too...May God Bless and keep you brother..
Terrific collection of bumper stickers! (and isn't it sad that John Prine's Vietnam lament is topical all over again?) I don't know how Bush sleeps at night with all those deaths to his credit - as serial killers go, he's WAY up there...
Just smile, nod, don't establish 'eye contact'. Don't mention 'the thing' or 'those people' definitely avoid 'hard syllables' and I guess jewy hybridy liberally, bitchy, smarty pants "Back Sassin'."
Like women voters, horseless corn powered goin mobilies, libs, cullereds, n veginial dirty bits on women folk, n Crise Killers, he's havin' no part of it! No how!
But Really Cheezy Eurotrashtic Tranz music OR videos seems to get a rise outa Dickva. I subscribed! Really! ; ) Peas!~
well...dickva1...i saw your favs posted, and it seems you do have a thing for trannys with popsicles..so if i were you (which ill be eternally thankful that i am not)...i wouldnt throw stones...
I hate bush as much as the next guy but you do know that this song was written about the Vietnam war right? Come on this song is older than me, why can't we have any new protest songs?

President Clinton destroyed our freedoms and rights by introducing the idea of "political correctness," which means we can't speak our minds without offending others! Poltical correctness sucks and is something we can do without!
"Also everyone said there were WMD's?". Who saw them? One lying snitch from god knows where. Oh and Saddam. Hmmm but he didn't have them. Where did he learn that trick? A Weapons bluff? 80's...
What the media did for anti war they continue now doing for gas prices and the economy. NOT REPORTING BUT OPINING AND PREDICTING.
I thought news was to tell us definites, what happened, etc. Now they have become like the weather report...predicting, opining, indoctrinating and brainwashing. Soon we will see $4/gal because the media has been cheering and promoting it. Not because the market commends it. Most experts are baffled at why gas prices are so high. The MEDIA has promoted it like an ad.
Ok I give Portugal, I agree. Really, I mean what's next??? Women Voters??? Take me to your 'spaceship' and let's fly off to 'crazy town' with the newspapers, deadheads, and George McGovern!
Even though many people voted for the war, non would have made this decision if they were pres. About U.S.S.R, they would have failed regardless. Their fall was predicted many many years before they actually fell due to their economic circumstances. Dispite the spin, we had absolutely nothing to do with. Basically, communism does work.

Typo....sorry!!!!!....I meant to say communism does not work!!!!! Sorry about that typo.
Please don't minimize Reagan and history. If not for Reagan and Thatcher RUSSIA would still be united and communism would still be advancing. The Peace Thru Strenght and the arms race is what did Soviet Union in. PERIOD.
I don't mean to minimize Reagan because I really liked him as a person and I don't think he was a bad president. But, the arms race began after WWII. That is a fact. But I don't credit any president for the fall of the U.S.S.R. It was the U.S.S.R's own doing. If our building arms causes countries to fall, then why hasn't countless coutries we don't like(Cuba, China, Iran) have fallen. It was the U.S.S.R's own doing.
Those countries are not in arms race. They actually get their arms from Russia. Problem was Russia spent mosts of it's GDP building weaponry and at times giving them away (like Cuba, etc) also they got into stupid wars Afghanistan (where America helped the Afghans) these wars and the arms race tumbled their economy. Even the russians say USA caused them to topple and collapse from within.
The Russians were selling their weapons for profit. But, they had a very inefficent economy. Some Russians may have said that but most will tell you it is simply not true. I don't mean to minimize Reagan because I think he was great in many areas that history will not give him credit for. One being, he was simply had a great presence to him, was a great speaker, and good leader. I don't think history will give him the credit he deserves for that because they are things that are hard to quantify.
I appreciate your points but Portugal I'm not seeing the support for your positions. You say without Reagan USSR is not only existing but expanding. Your support is "even the russians say USA caused them to topple and collapse. This is true the USA caused them to topple. From well before WWII. Giving Reagan sole credit would be yield the conclusion the economics os Soviet Communism is not only viable but successful only Reagan stopped it. I dont minimize Reagan but in turn don't deify him.
The GOV"T said their were WMDS. They had definitive "proof". Now I have to prove a negative? And I didn't even contest wmds! lol. I made your point for you. Balistic+Chemical=WMD. That should be your arguement if any. Please don't revise, we were going after Osama Bin Laden. At the end of the day, where is Bin Laden? The guy who masterminded and financed 9/11, not mothers of dead palestinians funding international terrorist organization with C-notes from Uncle Saddam.
I think to say that Reagan was a great president is quite a stretch. Yes, he was villified but that goes with territory. So was Clinton. History will remember Clinton better than Reagan. As far Bush, he will be by far the worse unless elect someone even worse.
How can you put Clinton in thesame sentence with great American presidents? one word IMPEACHMENT.
If you need more? Branch Davidian and th ekilling and burning of a couple hundred US citizens including womne and children. Failure to deal with terrorism threat. Supporting muslims vs christians in Kosovo. Lieing to the American people. ETC.
Sounds like you are a hardcore republican instead of an American. First of the impeachment was a republican impeachment. Only 1 demo voted for it. About terrorism, Bush had ample time to deal with Bin Laden before 9/11. But, like many people, didn't think was a threat.
Great talker like Ohh-Bummer but like to be president when the dot com boom came about but that boombusted at the end of his tenure. The history is written Clinton was a bad president at a good time nothing else.
Dare I say again a president that lies to his people and his wife is no suhc great person or president. He brought SHAME to us here and all around the world.
About lies, well Bush has been caught in more lies and all other Presidents before him combined. There are so many, it is hard to name them all. But, he knew there were no WMD's in iraq and also knew Saddam was absolutely no threat to the U.S. but is on film stating it many times.
Clinton we know he lied he got IMPEACHED for it. It is easy to say this and that. WMD Bush said excatly what Clinton was sayign his whole term. Clinton said that there was WMD...everyone beleieved there was WMD. HUSSEIN said he HAD WMD. The intelligence may have been wrong but don;t tell me Bush lied about it. Dems looked at the same intel and VOTED for the WAR as well. PLEASE don't mnimize or revise.
Clinton never lied us into war. Period. If Clinton were still president, we would not have gone to war with Iraq. He had 8 years to do it and didn't do it. Saddam, whether he had WMD or not, was no threat to the U.S.
CLinton had more wars than BUSH not only that there was more military deaths during Clintons terms then during Bush's check it out. Clinton killed many more Americans and Christians than Bush could ever.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has done its own projections and comes in lower, forecasting a cumulative cost by 2017 of $1.2 trillion to $1.7 trillion for the two wars, with Iraq generally accounting for three-quarters of the costs.
You are right about the cost so far. Of course however the cost are not over. Also, this 600 billion doesn't include all cost - potential medical care for injured veterans of this war.
"Free Healthcare for Veterans Scam". Well don't build new hospitals, let the ones we have rot, staff it like a gulag, then when the war is over, give such low rent service that the vets give up going to VAs!
Whoops too late. Or do like the HMO's and instruct physicians to cut costs by fudging diagnosis. Whoops. A colonel sent a memo last month, urging restraint in PTSD because of the number of claims. Tried to slow the treatment process. Good point ddmaxwell, but they hate spending $ on it!
I agree with you completely but i must point out that every single one of us that has put a message up has most likely been flag by some government agency and now they have files on us all. Hurray Freedom!!

hey your a bitch..making this video...is a good song but you ruin it with your stupid fucking pictures. you liberal cunt. Your a fucking tard. Go just off a bridge!
Bush's veracity and transparancy have been DUBious at best, but most officials, Powell included, were confident in bad intelligence. This is unfortunate but not the greatest problem for me. Another President in a time of war made popular the expression "The Buck Stops Here". It can be argued with chemical weapons & ballistic missiles the combo constitute WMDs. And WMD issue is important, UN res violations too, also Rwanda, global warming, AIDS, etc. None however are related to 9/11.
Ultimately, the CIA and intelligence community falls under the President. Their compentency is his resposibility. As I stated, its poor management at best; however his spineless amazing equivocation of character with stubborness is pathetic. His father after Read My Lips no new taxes, raised taxes and for that I could forgive him, but instead of a sincere explanation of going back on his word grins and says "Read my Hips". Obama would not turn poor intelligence into disaster, nor would McCain.

yo ur a stupid bitch stfu you jew...go hang yourself...go drive your fucking hybrid...you liberal bitch. Its ppl like you that makes ameria look like pussies. BTW stop tryin to sound smart bitch.
Well Dick, how do I say this. It's not that I sound smart. Soldiers are lined up and the sarg asks for volunteer to step forward u know? And so's every one steps back except one guy. Yer kinda like that guy. Its not that me or the others here are so smart like its, well, yer so,, like that other guy see what I mean Dick? Maybe he's a Dick too? Go outside and practice falling down for awhile. Put bike helmet on this time. Oh I got a new sticker for it too, Says 'Livin' the Dream!'
Dems looked at the same intel and VOTED for the WAR as well. PLEASE don't mnimize or revise. "Minimize"? Colin Powell look congress in the eye and says in effect trust me they exist.. He admitted the error and could not be part of a war based on error. Because he has character and integrity; which if as you imply is wholly compromised by the awesome moral travesty of lying about a 'sloppy'.
Ok, then I believe destroying our country by every objective and subjective standard imaginable (save 'keeping guys from kissin', and protecting us from the evils of stem cell voodoo). The only case I can see you making is that Bush hasn't been proven a liar, at least to his wife. Every aspect of our culture, the world, and America is tainted, lowered, destroyed or dead thanks to.. Clinton? With respect, You Gotta Be Shittin' Me. As you say "LMAO it is sad how some people think!!" Free OJ too.
Clinton did more to damage society and American values and USA perception around the world by our allies & enemies than Bush could in 100 yrs. Our allies still respect us and our enemies still hate us NOTHING changed. The far left libs badmouthing our country and our president did the damage. The damage was caused by the constant barage of media and libs rallying against this war (BUT THEY ALWAYS DO THIS IN ANY WAR THAT A REPUBLICAN SUPPORTS). That is where the damage was done here and abroad.
Reason why we are in IRAQ is tied to 9/11 for this reason: HUSSEIN was the world's biggest supporter of terrorism financially. He openely paid $25-75,000 to the families of suicide bombers. That is supporting terrorism. ON the war agaisnt terrorism it was clealry stated that we would go after terrrorists and supporters of terrorism. Also Hussein violated the UN resolutions and teh cease fire agreement fromteh Kuwait war.
EVERY SOURCE said there was WMD. A negative can't be proven one can't say "there was NO WMD" all we can say is that none was found (it was found but NEVER REPORTED not in the suspected quantities). Either WMD was not there, MOVED or not yet found. If 10 yrs from now WMD is found like the mass graves they've been finding will you than ADMIT THAT W WAS RIGHT?
More damage was done by media hype & opinion than any action by troops. W's mistake was not taking the media on & talking to America more.
"EVERY SOURCE said there was WMD. A negative can't be proven one can't say "there was NO WMD".
I'll just address this point. A negative can be proven in a closed environment. (ie I am not holding an apple) Reductum ad absurdum is the arguement. But I can't prove Hannah Montana is not in Texas. But your point is moot. 'Lib's' didn't come out and claim "There are no WMDS!" and the Bush admin respond "There might be".
Saudi Arabia also supports terrorism in a direct way as do most Middle Eastern countries. What about the ethnic cleansing we have overseen. It is a violation of Geneva Conventions to not provide adequate security. This is not the only war crime Bush has committed, he has sanctioned the torture of innocent people. It is also against international law to torture the guilty.
"Every source"?? Not true even in the slightest, just more revisionist history that anyone who took the time to do some minimal homework can see through...
read the NIE 2002, the UN reports from 1998 and 2002 an 2003...
I will never wish we had "W" back in the White House. Never. And I suspect most of the rest of the world will not only not miss him, but will continue to regret his presidency for a long time to come. George W. Bush is the worst president in history, and unfortunately he's had many opportunities to do awful things. This terrible war is just one.
Given the choices our system gave us: W. Gore or Kerry even today I would take W.
I lived thru Reagan the media and libs said vile crap about him, now they kiss his ring.
Remember: Bed Time for Boozo? Remember red phone, nuclear proliferation, cold war & blowing up the world many times over? Remember Iran-Contra? Hostage crisis? Sandinistas? ETC ETC. They vilified Reagan and his policies but he was steadfast. Now history proves him RIGHT. The same will be said for BUSH.
I wonder, given the point you made about the same people lying to Clinton and to Bush, would the diff between say Kerry and Bush be their own decisions, or would the decisions be similar to Bush, because of the info and its sources. As far as Reagan, I was in High School, and I was not a fan. Particularly with Star Wars and its efficacy at best was futile. And it was futile. So he fooled us all but only to fool USSR. A gamble that proved well played. Iran-contra, much different
Even though many people voted for the war, non would have made this decision if they were pres. About U.S.S.R, they would have failed regardless. Their fall was predicted many many years before they actually fell due to their economic circumstances. Dispite the spin, we had absolutely nothing to do with. Basically, communism does work.
Because Bill Clinton for 8 yrs said that he had Weapon os Mass Destruction, was a danger to the region, was killing many of his people (by the 1000's) and needed to be taken out. Yet he took little action against this tyrant and left the mess for a Bush to resolve. He also took little action against terror threats which allowed 9/11 to happen.
Soon we will have another President to bash and son we'll be wishing we had W back in the White House.
Thats right the same people that lied to Clinton also lied to bush and he lied to congress and they lied to the Senate who were being lied to by lobbyist who the big cprp. lied to...are we starting to see a pattern? Elections who's the bigest liar? Maybe before we tell every one else how to run their countery we should get our own out of the crapper ...you can be on the right meds
Admittadly your comment sets uneasily with me. But your comment of Clinton taking little action has some merit with me. He did take 'a' little action with the couple of Patriot missile strikes. Like shooting a BB gun at a hornets nest. That's my criticism of Clinton regarding Iraq was that the little he did may have given AQ a focus. How do you rate Bush's job, given, as you say, the problem to resolve? Was he the best man for the job the last 7 yrs? Thx for your comments.
Brainwashing by the media is prevalent with many village idiots that have no common sense and just follow what someone says. It doesn't matter if it is supported by fact or fiction.
The "village idiot" is OUR President....tell me how many idiots have been re-elected.
Oh fuck that. I'm anti-war, but I'd never dream of being anti-soldier. I understand they're just doing what they think is right, and I'm sad for every single one that has died. That doesn't mean I have to agree with the meaningless war they're fighting. Hell, my husband's sister was stationed in Saddam Hussein's fucking hometown. D'you really think I'm going to wish her, or any of the others, dead?
AHAHA this was too good muah! Many a truth is put across with humour... This burnt a pathway to Truth Loved it. Should be the US's national anthem ...
Good msg, but where is the talk about Depleted Uranium (D.U) used in munitions??? I thik it's pretty important to understand that D.U. lasts longer then the age of the earth!
Ask the Birth defected children, throughout the world, how they feel about the war. Ask the soldiers who can't get the medical attention they so desperately need. Ask yourself, was there really a foriegn terrorism threat at all??? Where was Osama's Trial? Osama is and was a CIA operative, remember that!
Great... I love it! I've always liked the song but the grahpics really pull it all together! I'm really glad to see you're not afraid to think for yourself and speak out for what you believe in. I couldn't agree more with the part about "Blind Trust in Bad Leaders is Not Patriotism" The only proganda here is the sterilzed white washed crap that spews out of the white house on a daily basis!
Is that you Uncle Mike? I had an uncle they called Fiddler Mike and he told me "don't fuctitup and tell anyone, it's 'our' secret".
Back to the song, sorry for propagandizing. I guess the heavens overcrowded from our dirty little war part through me off. Read it all wrong. Slap anotha flag on ma Humma!
Not very famous, but many if not most great songwriters usually require a little digging.
I heard of him through the song 'In Spite of Ourselves' a duet with Iris Dement. Email me and I'll hook ya up.
I like all types of music but I don't like most music. Usually I find about 5% or so of any genre is really good stuff; and all those 5%'s added up is alotta good stuff.
I guess I measured famous on the bulk of folk. That watch reality shows and like brittany spears. However to donning and the like he's far from unknown. And Donning help a brotha out. I just need a plane ticket and one for the show and I'll sooo buy you a Shiner Bock. ;)
He he - I'll see what can be arranged. You should see some of the celebrity TV trash we get over here - makes the word puerile redundant. I've seen him once before but he didn't do much modern stuff: I'd like to see him to play post 'Missing Years' stuff live: 'Lake Marie', 'The Bottomless Lake', all of those.
BBC{A} here's gettin' on ma nerves. They brought back MI-5 and every promo/teaser they say 'a new episode'. And its just a rerun from 5 years ago. And they've also made a big push about getting us to turn on our closed-captioning like its impossible to understand. Besides, all I watch for is to see a boobie on Benny Hill lol. I'd like to see some 'David Allen at Large" reruns from way back.
Too bad this awesome song had to come out of retirement for this illegal war. Bush called Jihad on Saddam and has now killed,maimed and displaced far more Iraqis than Saddam ever did. He has created more terrorists who hate us than Osama, and did it all by lying to the gullible.Jesus Still don't like killin no matter what the reasons for! Don't end up in the same handbasket as the neocons!It was Always about the oil, not democracy or freedom. Impeach? How about Imprison the whole lot of them.
I thought Impeach too. But they're clever squirrels. We would impreach Bush, Cheney step up as Pres, pardon Bush bout the time Cheney's impeachment happened, then Cheney would be back, they both would get raises, and become Queen and King of the universe. Somethin like all that. Crazy talk. Like a few years ago I woulda thought 'Cheney shot someone!' woulda been crazy talk too. lol.
Not all are they shrews, as you said, they have powerful friends to rescue them. When this is justice in acountry that claims to have been founded on principles of liberty and democracy, what can be expect of others? Depressing!
I do live in a country that was founded on principles of liberty and we have evolved. I now benefit from others that tell me liberties are not freedom. I say that without reservation to you and the guys in that van at the end of the street. I feel safely terrified. Like the freedom when that 5th grade bully sat on my chest and made me hit myself. How's your freedom in Iraq these days? The squirrels tell me you folks are happier every day.
hahaha...I meant to say "not only are they shrewd"...sorry, too early in the morning! In Iraq now people have the liberty of buying machine guns and killing whoever they have a feud with. Men have the liberty of killing their "unruly" wives with impunity - squirrels warped definition of "happier"!
I remember that Cheyney shooting incident! Unbelievable! And what happened? They guy who he shot apologised to HIM for having caused him so much grief...I thought WTF!
You foreigners. Shooting. I mean we 'shoot' film, 'shoot the shit', so now Cheney shoots a friend. A friend mind you. And now its some 'big deal'. When there are gays n stuff kissin' you know, important stuff, you bring up a little horseplay with guns.
Well, the Iraqi war is'nt any worse than the Viet Nam war was, not yet anyone, 56,000 dead there and for what?? The presidents just like to go down in history for "something'. (But I still like the song)
If you like, I have a Donovon song "The War Drags On" which was written about Vietnam on my channel. I didn't spell out the obvious with that song knowing people like you would get it, and hoping some others might put it together by themselves. Or not. Check it out.
Well hell. I'm done with this video. It was my first and I was frustrated. I appreciate the comments, but the song deserves better, and I for one am going to concentrate on changing attitudes before 11/5/08. This video just pisses people off and makes the rest of us happy their pissed. We gotta do everything in our power to remove as many of Bush's folks outta office. Democrat, Republican, Martian, I don't care, just someone honest and puts us first.
capt, in 1916 a Brit officer wrote a book titled "Why we are in Iraq".The reason given was to "bring peace and democracy to the people of Iraq"....a total crock; the Brits wanted their oil just as Dubya and his "Gold Dust Twins" Chencey and Rove...three draft dodgers...
Me? Viet Nam era vet US Army 1965-1967 Camp Bearcat...so go eat shit and wave your flag dip shit and support the Grand Oil Party..I bet dollars to nuts that Capt was in the rear with the gear son of a bitch.
Support our troops, but that does not mean in Iraq. The best way to support our troops is to have them back home. Not in a treasonous civil war Bush facilitated.
The troops, rightfully so, serve the Comm-in-Chief, who we elect. The president serves the people and country, Bush does not. He is a traitor to everything America stands for. Case in point commuting/pardoning Libby, who was guilty of perjury and treason as well.
Terror is a tactic, not an enemy. It's like having a "war on cluster bombs." Ask any Vietnam vet how well that went. We dropped more bombs in Vietnam in one week than had been dropped in the history of the world. It didn't help. Occupation rarely do work, especially in a nation like Iraq with tribal factions and interests who have been battling each other for years.
don't act like you did this for me or my American family. maybe you believed in the war, but WE didn't. maybe you wanted to pay for college. maybe you wanted to blow things up and kill people. whatever the case, don't act as if you did me, the American people, or the Iraqi people any favors.
I see you've been eating off the propoganda wagon. You know that stuff is really bad for you. If there's no peace EVER with the terrorists (as YOU put it) then remind me WHY we are wasting billions of dollars over there??? Exactly what will we accomplish if there is no peace EVER anyway??? And NO I would not be dead by now because the WMD's don't exist cappy.
War is for losers who are too stupid or concerned with power and MONEY.
True patriots protect, defend and follow the U.S. Constitution. Not the flag. The flag is a mere symbol; a " graven image", if you will.
You see, anybody can pick up a flag and say " follow me". If you follow blindly you are a fool. Our military, president and members of congress all take an oath to preserve and defend the constitution -- not the flag!
The Constitution is the heart of America. The flag is nothing but a symbol.
It's funny some vets like to brag that they fighting for our freedom, then they turn around and act like an ass say we don't have the right to grieve our government. By the way, that's in the constitution, you should check it out sometime instead of kissin' Bush's ass.
I Agree whole-heartedly!! Impeach dubya and co.
Pray for Peace

Please don't minimize Reagan and history. If not for Reagan and Thatcher RUSSIA would still be united and communism would still be advancing. The Peace Thru Strenght and the arms race is what did Soviet Union in. PERIOD.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
I don't mean to minimize Reagan because I really liked him as a person and I don't think he was a bad president. But, the arms race began after WWII. That is a fact. But I don't credit any president for the fall of the U.S.S.R. It was the U.S.S.R's own doing. If our building arms causes countries to fall, then why hasn't countless coutries we don't like(Cuba, China, Iran) have fallen. It was the U.S.S.R's own doing.
ddmaxlow 4 years ago
Those countries are not in arms race. They actually get their arms from Russia. Problem was Russia spent mosts of it's GDP building weaponry and at times giving them away (like Cuba, etc) also they got into stupid wars Afghanistan (where America helped the Afghans) these wars and the arms race tumbled their economy. Even the russians say USA caused them to topple and collapse from within.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
The Russians were selling their weapons for profit. But, they had a very inefficent economy. Some Russians may have said that but most will tell you it is simply not true. I don't mean to minimize Reagan because I think he was great in many areas that history will not give him credit for. One being, he was simply had a great presence to him, was a great speaker, and good leader. I don't think history will give him the credit he deserves for that because they are things that are hard to quantify.
ddmaxlow 4 years ago
I appreciate your points but Portugal I'm not seeing the support for your positions. You say without Reagan USSR is not only existing but expanding. Your support is "even the russians say USA caused them to topple and collapse. This is true the USA caused them to topple. From well before WWII. Giving Reagan sole credit would be yield the conclusion the economics os Soviet Communism is not only viable but successful only Reagan stopped it. I dont minimize Reagan but in turn don't deify him.

The GOV"T said their were WMDS. They had definitive "proof". Now I have to prove a negative? And I didn't even contest wmds! lol. I made your point for you. Balistic+Chemical=WMD. That should be your arguement if any. Please don't revise, we were going after Osama Bin Laden. At the end of the day, where is Bin Laden? The guy who masterminded and financed 9/11, not mothers of dead palestinians funding international terrorist organization with C-notes from Uncle Saddam.

I think to say that Reagan was a great president is quite a stretch. Yes, he was villified but that goes with territory. So was Clinton. History will remember Clinton better than Reagan. As far Bush, he will be by far the worse unless elect someone even worse.

How can you put Clinton in thesame sentence with great American presidents? one word IMPEACHMENT.
If you need more? Branch Davidian and th ekilling and burning of a couple hundred US citizens including womne and children. Failure to deal with terrorism threat. Supporting muslims vs christians in Kosovo. Lieing to the American people. ETC.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
Sounds like you are a hardcore republican instead of an American. First of the impeachment was a republican impeachment. Only 1 demo voted for it. About terrorism, Bush had ample time to deal with Bin Laden before 9/11. But, like many people, didn't think was a threat.

Great talker like Ohh-Bummer but like to be president when the dot com boom came about but that boombusted at the end of his tenure. The history is written Clinton was a bad president at a good time nothing else.

PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
About lies, well Bush has been caught in more lies and all other Presidents before him combined. There are so many, it is hard to name them all. But, he knew there were no WMD's in iraq and also knew Saddam was absolutely no threat to the U.S. but is on film stating it many times.
ddmaxlow 4 years ago
NAME one lie. Shoe me the smoking gun.
It is easy to say someone lied with no proof.
Clinton we know he lied he got IMPEACHED for it. It is easy to say this and that. WMD Bush said excatly what Clinton was sayign his whole term. Clinton said that there was WMD...everyone beleieved there was WMD. HUSSEIN said he HAD WMD. The intelligence may have been wrong but don;t tell me Bush lied about it. Dems looked at the same intel and VOTED for the WAR as well. PLEASE don't mnimize or revise.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
Clinton never lied us into war. Period. If Clinton were still president, we would not have gone to war with Iraq. He had 8 years to do it and didn't do it. Saddam, whether he had WMD or not, was no threat to the U.S.

Bush's veracity and transparancy have been DUBious at best, but most officials, Powell included, were confident in bad intelligence. This is unfortunate but not the greatest problem for me. Another President in a time of war made popular the expression "The Buck Stops Here". It can be argued with chemical weapons & ballistic missiles the combo constitute WMDs. And WMD issue is important, UN res violations too, also Rwanda, global warming, AIDS, etc. None however are related to 9/11.

Ultimately, the CIA and intelligence community falls under the President. Their compentency is his resposibility. As I stated, its poor management at best; however his spineless amazing equivocation of character with stubborness is pathetic. His father after Read My Lips no new taxes, raised taxes and for that I could forgive him, but instead of a sincere explanation of going back on his word grins and says "Read my Hips".

Clinton did more to damage society and American values and USA perception around the world by our allies & enemies than Bush could in 100 yrs.

The damage was caused by the constant barage of media and libs rallying against this war (BUT THEY ALWAYS DO THIS IN ANY WAR THAT A REPUBLICAN SUPPORTS). That is where the damage was done here and abroad.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
Reason why we are in IRAQ is tied to 9/11 for this reason: HUSSEIN was the world's biggest supporter of terrorism financially. He openely paid $25-75,000 to the families of suicide bombers. That is supporting terrorism. ON the war agaisnt terrorism it was clealry stated that we would go after terrrorists and supporters of terrorism. Also Hussein violated the UN resolutions and teh cease fire agreement fromteh Kuwait war.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
EVERY SOURCE said there was WMD. A negative can't be proven one can't say "there was NO WMD" all we can say is that none was found (it was found but NEVER REPORTED not in the suspected quantities). Either WMD was not there, MOVED or not yet found. If 10 yrs from now WMD is found like the mass graves they've been finding will you than ADMIT THAT W WAS RIGHT?
More damage was done by media hype & opinion than any action by troops. W's mistake was not taking the media on & talking to America more.
PORTUGAL1010 4 years ago
"EVERY SOURCE said there was WMD. A negative can't be proven one can't say "there was NO WMD".
I'll just address this point. A negative can be proven in a closed environment. (ie I am not holding an apple) Reductum ad absurdum is the arguement. But I can't prove Hannah Montana is not in Texas. But your point is moot. 'Lib's' didn't come out and claim "There are no WMDS!" and the Bush admin respond "There might be".

Saudi Arabia also supports terrorism in a direct way as do most Middle Eastern countries. What about the ethnic cleansing we have overseen.

A gamble that proved well played. Iran-contra, much different

Why did we invade Iraq?
Because Bill Clinton for 8 yrs said that he had Weapon os Mass Destruction, was a danger to the region, was killing many of his people (by the 1000's) and needed to be taken out. Yet he took little action against this tyrant and left the mess for a Bush to resolve. He also took little action against terror threats which allowed 9/11 to happen.
Soon we will have another President to bash and son we'll be wishing we had W back in the White House.

capt, in 1916 a Brit officer wrote a book titled "Why we are in Iraq".The reason given was to "bring peace and democracy to the people of Iraq"....a total crock; the Brits wanted their oil just as Dubya and his "Gold Dust Twins" Chencey and Rove...three draft dodgers...
Me? Viet Nam era vet US Army 1965-1967 Camp Bearcat...so go eat shit and wave your flag dip shit and support the Grand Oil Party..I bet dollars to nuts that Capt was in the rear with the gear son of a bitch.

Support our troops, but that does not mean in Iraq. The best way to support our troops is to have them back home. Not in a treasonous civil war Bush facilitated.
The troops, rightfully so, serve the Comm-in-Chief, who we elect. The president serves the people and country, Bush does not. He is a traitor to everything America stands for. Case in point commuting/pardoning Libby, who was guilty of perjury and treason as well.

Terror is a tactic, not an enemy. It's like having a "war on cluster bombs." Ask any Vietnam vet how well that went. We dropped more bombs in Vietnam in one week than had been dropped in the history of the world. It didn't help. Occupation rarely do work, especially in a nation like Iraq with tribal factions and interests who have been battling each other for years.

from an Iraqi Freedom war vet: eat $hit & die, dumbass. i think John Prine would tell you the same thing.

"You're feeling freedom and the world's off your back/Some cowboy from Texas starts his own war in Iraq?"
Those are John Prine's lyrics from his song "Some Humans Ain't Human". You've earned your right to your opinion; my anger is toward Bush, not Vets.

whose the dumbass now??
don't act like you did this for me or my American family. maybe you believed in the war, but WE didn't. maybe you wanted to pay for college. maybe you wanted to blow things up and kill people. whatever the case, don't act as if you did me, the American people, or the Iraqi people any favors.
IMPEACH BUSH NOW!!

He did act for you or you'd be dead by now.
No peace with mid east terrorists, EVER.
We are in WW III whether you like it or not.
The terrorists want to kill you and me and the vet and everybody else. what the hell do you think Jihad means.
Nuke the terrorists.

I see you've been eating off the propoganda wagon. You know that stuff is really bad for you. If there's no peace EVER with the terrorists (as YOU put it) then remind me WHY we are wasting billions of dollars over there??? Exactly what will we accomplish if there is no peace EVER anyway??? And NO I would not be dead by now because the WMD's don't exist cappy.
War is for losers who are too stupid or concerned with power and MONEY.
IMPEACHMENT, NOT JUST FOR BLOWJOBS ANYMORE.

True patriots protect, defend and follow the U.S. Constitution. Not the flag. The flag is a mere symbol; a " graven image", if you will.
You see, anybody can pick up a flag and say " follow me". If you follow blindly you are a fool. Our military, president and members of congress all take an oath to preserve and defend the constitution -- not the flag!
The Constitution is the heart of America. The flag is nothing but a symbol.

It's funny some vets like to brag that they fighting for our freedom, then they turn around and act like an ass say we don't have the right to grieve our government. By the way, that's in the constitution, you should check it out sometime instead of kissin' Bush's ass.
