I'd go to the extent to type out a long and drawn out arguement, but right now I don't have that kind of time or patience. There is one issue I want to address about us oppressing the rest of the world. This policy was first developed during the Russian Civil War, when France, Britain and the US decided to help the Whites in their fight for power. Unfortunately they sent just enough support to piss the Red's off, but not enough to help the White's win the war. Thus we pissed off the leaders and made a completely useless attempt in aid for the supporters of democracy. So now we say "Go all they way, or don't go at all." There is no middle ground for this policy. Unfortunately, we over involve ourselves in the rest of the world's issues. It's either our way or the highway. We take no care in the choosing of the battles we fight. A more cautious stance should be taken instead of throwing ourselves into the midst of the fight. Saddam should be taken care of, but not in this manner. Why not take care of our own problems before fixing the world's.
G-boy, there is such a thing as an "Educated Idiot". A nazi could graduate college, but that doesn't justify his actions and feelings. With this said, I don't think Bush is an idiot/moron/whatever. I just think he lacks social skills :D.
We have declared war, it is truly a sad time.
Cattle die and kindred die. We also die.
But I know one thing that never dies,
Judgment on each one dead.
