bush urges econ action, iraq patience
Published Jan. 28, 2008George W. Bush is the worst President ever! Why wasn't all of this talk put to action seven years ago? He has started this mess that he can't get out of and leaving it in the hands of our next President (Obama) to straighten out. It's going to take even longer for our nation to get back to normal.

This caught my eye right off with rumfield up there shaking all hands. I will be reading on this and I also noticed this as a global policy fouom which is neat. I don't know much on global policieis and these sites will help. I knew we had dealing with him but I never knew he was on our cia payroll. Makes you wonder

Ladyblue has a genuine interest in learning. We don't always agree, but when we don't it's because she has legitimate reasons for it, and I can respect that.
As far as medlin is concerned, my goal have never been to convince her of anything. It's always been to prevent her from convincing OTHERS unless she tells the whole story in trying to do so.

They're pretty informative and concise.

Of course, one should go back a little farther and examine the negotiations during the Reagan administration culminating in Bechtel constructing one of the largest chemical plants in the Middle East right outside of Baghdad during a time when Hussein was using chemical weapons on the Iranians and the Kurds. The last American technicians didn't leave this plant until the beginning of the first Gulf War.
Who conducted those negotiations, you ask? Donald Rumsfeld.
So, if they thought there might be chemical weapons in Iraq, they had good reason to. Who would know about them better than the country that helped Iraq to produce them?
And now you know ... the rest of the story ...

Last comment for me too. This is cold and mean (I'll admit that), but let them kill each other. None of them want our help anyway.
