The plural of muse is muses. You do know that the Muses were female,
right? That probably explains you, but I had no idea that a bag'o'sh*t
like Reggie could be considered inspirational.


Harry,
Now you have really don't it, you have hurt my feelings. *See if I ever
help you out again.

There is no need to speculate over how many might be dead if Saddam were
still in power. What's the point of that? The point is, Bush's actions
resulted in the deaths of up to hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, and for
what? For Bush's personal political reasons.


For many reasons beside any personal political reasons.

Many in Congress were calling to "disarm" Saddam during the Clinton
administration and many of the most vocal were Dems. (We've already covered
that and the "Intel" issue, yet the left continues to brush that fact
aside.) The primary issue was Saddam's increasing refusal to comply with
the UN resolutions agreed to and signed by Iraq after it was chased out of
Kuwait, with Saddam being allowed to stay in power.

Clinton's only action, other than parroting the above in speeches, was to
lob a bunch of cruise missiles that accomplished nothing. (Many believe it
was a "wag the dog" effort to distract media attention from his personal
problems with "that woman".) Who knows for sure?

The same Intel existed when Bush entered office. 9/11 put the US on a war
footing against terrorism. He immediately went after bin Laden, having to
first demolish the Taliban who were providing protection, and, receiving the
same Intel about Iraq, including the threats of nuclear and biological WMDs
that Clinton had, he made a case of it and demanded that Saddam comply with
the UN resolutions. This demand was made despite the UN's weakness in doing
anything to enforce their own resolutions. Saddam was given plenty of
opportunity to comply, but became more resistant, buying time (to do what?).
Even the chief UN weapons inspector, Kay, believed WMDs existed at this time
and was venting his frustration at Saddam's stalling activities. (Kay later
joined the anti-Bush conspiracy gang when events cast a shadow on his own
believability.)

Everything since then has been pure speculation by the conspiracy lovers.

That's what I think.

And yet, Bush never went after the country from which most of the 9/11 thugs
originated. Do you find anything wrong with that at all???

Harry,
Instead of saying "...resulted in the deaths of up to hundreds of
thousands of Iraqis" it would be just as accurate to say ...
"resulted in the deaths of up to hundreds of millions of Iraqis".
The way you worded that sentence it doesn't matter what number you
use, it is still a true statement.
Who cares, as long as we're bringing democracy to the Middle East, right?
"Consultative Council or Majlis al-Shura (150 members and a chairman
appointed by the monarch for four-year terms); note - though the
Council of Ministers announced in October 2003 its intent to introduce
elections for half of the members of local and provincial assemblies
and a third of the members of the national Consultative Council or
Majlis al-Shura, incrementally over a period of four to five years, to
date no such elections have been held or announced."
Maybe the country described above should be our next stop.
I wonder why ReggieTurd keeps addressing questions or making suggestions
to me?
What an ass.
Harry,
I find it easier to address my comments directly to you, instead of
pretending to have you filtered, and then making snide personal insults.
I love to make a comment and then wait to see how you handle it when
no one quotes my comment in a response. You still responding to my
post, sometimes by starting a new post that address the issue I raised.
No one really believes you use a filter anymore than you own a lobster
boat or are married to a Dr. Dr., so why bother.- Hide quoted text -

Yes. And in time that will have to be addressed. To do so now would dry up
our oil supply, a fact that cannot be ignored. You can't have national
security with no oil at the moment.

"Mr. Ambassador, remember the 20-30 pages of information hidden from the
9/11 commission? The information which would've made it clear that we
should've invaded your country, instead of the wrong one? Would you like
that information released to the press?"

"Now, let's talk about the price of oil, shall we?"


Farcical, and didn't answer the question. Saudi Arabia posed no threat to
the USA,

They sure do like our bonds and our manufacturing business. So yes, I'm sure
they have an interest in our financial health.
