Bush on nation building: 2000 presidential debates

[CazK88]

Hahaha...what the hell are we doing still in Iraq? Hmm?? Still looking for them weapons Dubya? Or are we still pushing for Iraqi freedom when Saddam has been dead for 5 years now? OH...I know...we are trying to place a permanent base in Iraq so we can bomb the hell out of Iran! Yep..thats it! "National Building"!

"Those that sacrifice Liberty for Security end up with neither" - History is proving the truth of these words

And this would be why I supported Al Gore in 2000. He ran on nation building, Bush didn't.

[Edgehead10075]

Wait a second now. See, this is what I don't get. The same liberals who were pro-nation building in 2000 are now against nation building. Bush isn't the only one who flip-flopped; the liberals who attacked him from the beginning flip-flopped.

LOC85, ignorant or not, you're spreading the WRONG message. You = "We're at war, an illegal war but I'm OK with that!" DUH.....wtf is wrong with you....

He could've have meant what what he said there. September 11th just changed everything. It's a different world now, IMO. We're at war.

[Edgehead10075]

Bush said that Sept. 11 changed everything, so we should all know where he was coming from, whether or not we agree that it should have changed everything.

we've never heard a presidential candidate oh whats the word... flip flop on an issue from a statement he made before the election to afterward. heck, we've never heard a candidate flip flop on an issue from before to after the primary. as a matter of fact, we've never heard a candidate flip flop on an issue from the begining of the presidential election to... oh i don't know a narrowing gap in his lead. oh wait, position on iraq, position on off shore drilling, posit. damn out of spa
