Perhaps if we'd successfully gone after the country that sponsored

9/11 animals, the world would've applauded. Even NOYB would've loved
it.
-We were already ass deep in Iraq on 9-11. I agree we should have
simply said screw the Kurds and let Israel take care of themselves
(that was really who was threatened by WMDs).
The time to come home was 1991. THREE presidents had the chance and
ignored it.
If we were not in Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Jordan, 9-11 would have just
been the boring news day between 9-10 and 9-12
It certainly is not about oil. We buy from who ever sells it. We don't
seem to have a problem buying from Chavez and he hates our guts.


If the NSA has Chavez' phones & facilities bugged, they must be in
stitches listening to what goes on there. My theory is that he really
doesn't hate us. Rather, he fakes his rants just to yank Bush's chain.
Then, he goes back to his home or office and laughs hysterically with his
pals.



It would be revealing for many to learn that while there is dislike and
even hatred in the world for our current political leader and his cronies,
there is great love and affection among many of those same folks for the
American people. Much of the world realizes we are suffering, too. I'm
sure Chavez is delighted to sell his countries exports to us.

I'm hoping that in my lifetime, we'll have a president and a congress that
restores full, normal, diplomatic relations with Cuba.


That'll happen when another generation of Cuban immigrants dies. There'll
still be lots of lobbying money aimed at keeping Cuba cut off, from
corporations like Bacardi, but I suppose (in a fairy tale), there could be
legislators who'd ignore that pressure.
