Jon,
You've given us "Moderates" another black eye. What's wrong with your
memory?

What memory. Saddam was not a threat to us. Please demonstrate
otherwise.

Have you forgotten the Kuwait War? Have you forgotten the UN rulings
given Iraq to stop the War? Has you forgotten the two "No Fly Zones"
set-up by the UN? Have you forgotten Saddam's misuse of "Medicines for
Oil"? Have you forgotten the 1000's of Rockets fired at UN Peace Keeping
Flights over the "NO FLY ZONES"?

Beat him down, destroyed his ability to do it again. The No Fly Zones
were working fine. Medicine for oil money has nothing to do with a
threat to the US or anyone else. Never hit any plane with his "1000s"
of rockets. And, we could have dealt with that without killing 1000s
of our troops or invading.

How in the Hell can you say he was no threat? I don't agree with "George
2nd" handling of the situation but damn it, to not say he wasn't a
Threat is STUPIDITY.!!!

Wise up Thom. We were misled and now both Iraq and Afganistan are
going down the tubes.

"Threat" is a codeword used by extremists to aDVANCE THEIR CAUSE.

The "environment" is threatened" cry the eco-wacko leftitsts.

Our "liberty" is "threatened" cry the right wing religo-nuts.

A threat has to be credible to be real.

Did Hussien possess a means to attack the US?

In his 20+ year reign did he ever attack the US?

Why would he threaten the US when we were on his side in the Iraq-Iran war?

Was Noriega in Panama a threat?

Castro was a bigger threat, he had atomic missiles in the 60's. North Korea
is a bigger threat. Iran is a bigger threat. Both have nukes and the stated
will to use them against the US.

Why don't we attack those threats?

Well said Gilligan, We might as well dive in and open up a big can of
woop-ass on the fanatic blood thristy Sirian's and insane nuclear bomb
building Iran. And that crazy MF headed up N. Korea.

I noticed some democrat introduced new legislationl today that I hope
get passed by congress.
*****************************************
Congressman Charles Rangel today introduced new legislation to
reinstate the military draft that will include draftees up to 42 years
of
age.

"Every day that the military option is on the table, as declared
by
the President in his State of the Union address, in Iran, North Korea,
and
Syria, reinstatement of the military draft is an option that must also
be
considered, whether we like it or not," Congressman Rangel said. "If
the
military is already having trouble getting the recruits they need, what
can
we do to fill the ranks if the war spreads from Iraq to other
countries? We
may have no other choice but a draft."


The bill would mandate military service for men and women between
the
ages of 18 and 42. Deferments would be allowed only for completion of
high
school up to the age of 20, and for reasons of health, conscience or
religious belief. Recruits not needed by the military in any given
year
would be required to perform some national civilian service.


"My bill conforms to the age standards that have been set by the
Army
itself," Congressman Rangel said, referring to the Army's recent
announcement raising the top age for Army volunteers from 39 to 42.
"With
volunteers now being accepted up to the age of 42, it makes sense to
cap the
age of draftees at 42," Congressman Rangel said.

*******************************************
Seems like a fair deal for all, It would be nice to see some of the
biggest whiners, left wing losers, and rich spoiled rotten collage
boys having to serve. They might get a clue, if not killed by FF.

Amazing.. I agree with all of this, and I'm a liberal!

Now, if I can just get Rumsfeld to stop calling liberals fascists for
disagreeing with Bushco.

I think we can do it all without invading.

Let me guess..... you're over 42?

Personally, I'd be happy if they raised the cutoff age to 50 and
lowered it to 15 :-) Both sexes of course. That'd take care of my kids
for a few years.....

All correct... where's Bin Ladin? Ooops. Bush invaded Iraq instead of
dealing with the real threat. Saddam was a dictator who brutalized his
people, but he wasn't a threat to the US or his neighbors at that time.
He might have become a threat, but there was no need to split our effort.
Did I mention poppy/heroin production is back on track in Afganistan? I
guess we don't have enough troops to deal with that either.

There seems to be some pretty good evidence now that Saddam was a
stabilizing influence in the Middle East, rather than the destabilizing
force we thought him to be. After Iran overtakes Iraq, the Muslim civil
war that will likely ensue should be a whopper.

Wonder if he'd like his old job back?

Max

There was pretty good evidence back in 1990 that Saddam was preferable to
the alternatives, credit to George I. Remember, when George II was asked if
he consulted his father re/invading Iraq and toppling the regime, he stated
that he consulted with his "other" father, his "earthly" father was probably
telling him that it was a huge mistake. War is peace.

Heh... how did you guess. I agree. The age range should be
increased. No deferments for anyone in that age range. If you can't
serve in a military capacity, due to physical problems, other jobs
should be available.
