@BertGriffin88 Wow it must kill you to see this video..hence you just listed everyone that's not in office anymore. LOL

History is going to show how Iraq became the greatest Democracy in the Middle East along with Israel. You hate that fact and that George Bush will go down as one of the greatest visionary Presidents. Great leaders stick to their word and don't abandon people...Democrats ruined Vietnam, they tried to ruin Iraq...but you guy LOST...LMAO LMAO

Read Newsweek your bible.

Agreed, But, our system has been around for a LONG time, it does work. What doesn't work are the people that we are voting in. People need to realize that we can't vote people in just because they look clean- cut. A democracy is better than a dictatorship anyday. A country can't just have one person running around doing whatever they want.

Our way is the best way? hmmm... have you looked around lately. Our way is looking alittle foul right now. All Im saying is, Im not so sure that we should force ANYBODY to live our way of life. What works for us may not work for everybody. It's not really working for us right now.

barack ad nauseum !!

I don't think that they want to be living under a dictator. Our way is the most fair and balanced. It's for the best, and I think they realize that.

I cant help but to ask this question. Is it really our place to make their country like ours, or is it the part of the Iraqi govt to pursue this? I ask this only b/c how would you feel if somebody kciked open your door, and started giving out orders and telling you what to do in your house? It's a valid question people.

Obanma is Bush #3.

[AEVautomatic]

So why should we elect bush again in 2012? So far Bush #3 has increased spending 2 months. Im voteing the party of no Bush #3. A vote for obama would be like a vote for bush.

@lifeisgood cont.

i believe your position is to give up all the freedoms and liberties we have known as a country, scrap our constitution, and have the people depend on the govt for food and money. well, i dont accept that and the true patriots of this country wont either. if u think socialism and marxist ideology is the way to go, i suggest u move to cuba. its not to far away, and the weather is to do for, quite literally. if u dont like it, dont worry, u can always raft ur way here.

ron paul is a RINO. truly he is a libertarian. the fed needs to be ended. recessions in a free market society are healthy and needed. unfortunately, this socialist govt has continued to prop up our economy, with help from the fed, to get reelected. the fed and govt have way to much power over we the people and we need to take it back. getting rid of the fed is the first step. even if the depression will kill millions of people, which it wont, its something we must allow to occur. cont...
