Corruption is the mother’s milk of democracy. There is really no way entirely to get rid of it. You can only fitfully control it.
Of course where there is a market economy without governmental supervision the possibility of corruption is greater, but socialist societies also have corruption.
Perhaps the best solution is to allow corruption to operate but shoot all the politicians every ten years or so.
By Bill

Candide: One good way to eliminate most of corruption is strict/short/absolute one term limits (hopefully by the time they’re bought they will be out of office, then). Wouldn’t hold my breath for politicians to reign themselves in though
By candide
December 10, 2005 08:26 AM | Link to this
The trouble, Bill, with term limits is that you bar people with talent from staying on and encourage newer players, many of whom are either fools or knaves, usually both. Some of the long-term politicoes are good to keep.
What’s needed is perhaps a purge every decade, with most of them being eliminated but the few good ones renewed for another decade.
Stalin knew this. He had less corruption than his successors — because he purged!

As long as we are talking “special interests” shouldn’t we discuss the abortion lobby? Anybody want to guess why pinkos flip their lids whenever someone speaks of overturning Rowe V Wade? Ever wonder who this mysterious “abortion lobby” is made up of? Planned Parenthood, maybe? Abortion “doctors?” Abortion clinic owners? Middle age menopausal women protesters?
What would this industry have to lose if abortion was illegal? Well, let’s just figure it out. 750,000 abortions a year, times what, let’s say $1,500 per. Why, this is an annual gross 1.175 billion dollar business. Not bad.
I hear shrieks of WOMEN’S HEALTH ISSUES! You mean the 300 women that died from pregnancy complications every year before abortion was made “legal?” 750,000 babies for 300 women a year? Nice.
Next up for discussion: Trial Lawyer’s.

Objective: In the honest case of women’s health, i.e. the life of the mother, yes. I actually believe in what the pinkos say. Safe and rare. Legality has led to abortion on demand. The outright murder of late term infants, choosing of the babies sex, killing Down’s Syndrome children, etc. I never said it was an easy issue. But if we are going to have open honest discussions about “special interests”….

From the Democratic party website:
Far too many Americans live with unhealthy air or water quality. Democrats will fight to strengthen the laws that ensure we have clean air to breathe and clean water to drink. And Democrats will make sure these laws *our enforced*. Rising rates of asthma and mercury poisoning are just two of the dire consequences of ignoring environmental problems.
They get very nervous when pretending to support law enforcement, don’t they?

R.W.: Very obviously, they do. Environmental issues can be addressed efficiently on two fronts. A halt to population growth while addressing environmental concerns. Otherwise, it will be a game of catch-up all the way and, no Andy, population growth cannot be addressed through abortion, that would leave us morally bankrupt. The complexity of all issues is what fascinates me.
Population control would bring undocumented resistance and justifiably so. The repurcussions of this type of action would create even more long-term and devastating results in the area of economics of which I know very little, just common sense evaluation.
Merry Christmas to you also R.W.

Objective Observer,
People might take that last post wrong in many, many ways. Just an Observation.
How about a joke:
When Osama bin Laden died, he was met at the Pearly Gates by George Washington, who slapped him across the face and yelled, “How dare you try to destroy the nation I helped conceive!”
Patrick Henry approached, punched him in the nose and shouted, “You wanted to end our liberties but you failed.”
James Madison followed, kicked him in the groin and said, “This is why I allowed our government to provide for the common defense!”
Thomas Jefferson was next, beat Osama with a long cane and snarled, “It was evil men like you who inspired me to write the Declaration of Independence.”
The beatings and thrashings continued as George Mason, James Monroe and 66 other early Americans unleashed their anger on the terrorist leader.
As Osama lay bleeding and in pain, an Angel appeared. Bin Laden wept and said, “This is not what you promised me.”
The Angel replied, “I told you there would be 72 Virginians waiting for you in Heaven. What did you think I said?”

Trial Lawyers, as promised: Anybody want to tell me what John Edwards was before the silly people of North Carolina elected him to the Senate? And who can tell me why the pinkos chose him to be their vice president? Because McCain told Kerry to get screwed? Close, you’re partly correct. For his vast Senatorial experience? Bwahahahaha, wrong. It was because he’s a trial lawyer! And the trial lawyer “special interest” lobby is loaded with cash! It was a match made in heaven!
How did trial lawyers get so much cash? The old fashioned way, they sued for it. And who did they sue? People who earn money, it really doesn’t matter, they just want their 66% of the verdict. And if they don’t have a case against you, they’ll just buy the judge off, or jury shop until they find one that agrees with their nonsense.
So what does this mean to you, loyal lib? Indirect tort costs per each U.S. citizen is $900, that’s $3,600 per a family of 4. That is not adjusted for your income, everybody pays $900 a year regardless of what you earn. Think about that the next time you are picketing Wal Mart. 900 buys some pretty good health insurance.
I’m not saying we don’t need protection of the courts. What I am saying is, just like everything else you give a pinko, they have abused our judicial system. For instance, John Edwards, channeling himself to the brain dead infant for the jury he was in front of, psychically communicating with her about how a C section would have saved her, remember? Well, turns out John was talking to his demons, not the little girl, the C section wouldn’t have helped her. But thanks to his error, chances are the next time you have children, they will cut your wife open so that the lawyers don’t sue them. That special democratic touch for your once in a lifetime occasion.
Later, I’ll do the Education Lobby!
Merry Christmas!

Anybody looking for a good laugh should read Cynthia Tucker’s sad rendering of the rebuilding of New Orleans. This gelded, sheltered pinko thinks that we should just bust open the doors of the federal treasury, without worry or care. Wasn’t it not too long ago that this same lib was riding Bush about deficit spending? But now that the “singers,” clowns and criminals she is so fond of have to fend for themselves, torpedoes be d-amned.
Will Princess Pinko give Bush any slack if he does cut loose with the billions?
Zero percent of the New Orleans levees are dependable. Whole sections have been found that were buried half as deep as they should have been. Pinko lib negligence, the workers were probably late for a party. New Orleans may not even be salvageable. Does Mother Pinko even care? Or does she just want to get the festivities started?

Gene McCarthy didn’t become a nationally known figure until November 30, 1967, when he announced his intention to challenge President Johnson in the Democratic primaries. Though he had voted for the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution in 1964, like many liberals McCarthy had become increasingly skeptical of U.S. policy in Vietnam as the military mission grew.

Democrats are gutless. Republicans are scumbags. Unfortunately, in this scenario Democrats are the lesser evil. Democrats often passively support the evil of others by fearing the political fallout incurred by their opposition. Republicans often actively perpetrate evil. To use a metaphor, Republicans are the guy who beats an innocent bystander into a pulp and takes his money. Democrats are the guy who sees this happen, knows it’s wrong, but is too scared to stand up for the bystander. Neither is honorable, but the second guy is at least not actively engaged in this assault.

One final question. Were you mean to a bell ringer for Salvation Army at the mall? Did you call Santa a lowlife and ask why he didn’t work the other 11 months of the year. Did you accuse him and the elves of being on welfare from Jan. to Nov. Just wondering in Wisconsin.

I think rushncap is trying to say it’s more honorable to stand by while someone else takes care of a problem and then claim the problem solver was evil so that you feel better about your own cowardice.

BigDaddy’s back. I would like to start off by thanking RW and Objective Observer - I nearly woke up my household I was laughing so hard. And I see that rushncap maybe got an early Christmas present? A sense of humor, maybe? Thanks for taking the time to search out that link.
As to the origins of BigDaddy - earlier, I was about to tell you when I had to run off. But now, after reading and seeing your links, I think I prefer to stay a more nebulous entity. Actually, the truth is not nearly as much fun as what ya’ll have conjectured.

Pay no attention to Big Daddy. I know that twit and trust me on this one, he’s more Big P* than he is Big Daddy - Eric
Well, since Eric has not come back to tell us how he “knows” me, I’m left to ponder those people with whom I’ve had recent run-ins.
1) Meter Maid on Pryor St. - going to pick up tags for my new Denali (which I bought only because I wanted to anger tree-huggers), there was a fire alarm that caused everyone to evacuate for more than an hour. I ran out of change. You caught me by five minutes. You know you were wrong, but in the spirit of Christmas, I’m willing to forgive you.
Chances of being Eric: 4 Screaming Meanies out of 5.
2) Tag Office Clerk - you should have told me that if I didn’t pay in full for my vanity plates (which say, and I’m not making this up, BIG DDDY) that I’d have to come back to pick them up, thus risking the wrath of Meter Maid.
Chances of being Eric: 2.5 Barking Moonbats out of 7.
3) Homeless Guy in Suit - bud, I’ve heard ad nauseum the story of how you just ran out of gas and you need a few bucks to make it home to Austell. And what’s with Austell anyway - did ya’ll have a bum convention and decide that Austell would be your destination of choice with this sad sack tale?
*Chances of being Eric: 1273 Patchouli salespersons (motto: don’t you call me a “salesman”!) out of 54.
4) Loud, drunk Dr. Phil soundalike at dinner the other night - yes, it’s bad they brought your salad at the same time as your salmon. Did you really need to torture your fellow diners by lambasting everyone who approached your table, down to the bread guy and table-busser? Those two could only say, “Si, senor.” You got a round of drinks comped all ready, get over it. Besides, did you really need that fifth double-Glenlivet on the rocks? And what kind of jerkweed drinks a fine single malt on the rocks anyway?
Chances of being Eric: 12 Hair O’ the Dog shots with 12 beers back out of 42.
Anyone else have any ideas. I’m stumped at this point.

BigDaddy: I was calling attention to the preferences of people living in the United States, not ITP Atlanta. Right now, it’s 2300 to 1 in favor of those who would rather be told a uplifting story of the Supreme Being than to be told of “a big sweeping and rapturous Hollywood love story” between two men. Hollywood totally “blew” this one, their timing couldn’t have been worse. This all shows that there is hope for America, even as bleak as the pinkos in Atl. are. Maybe that’s why they are so depressed and vicious this morning.

Did anyone else sense an underlying current of nastiness in today’s litter box liner, even more so than usual? Or did you see it as more of an overt “lashing out” at their demons, real and imagined? Is this what happens to your Christmas cheer and merriment when you turn to “sweeping and rapturous” cowboy love stories for entertainment?
They even joined in on jeering Ann Coulter, lest we not remember the 2004 democratic party platform: We are committed to resolving our differences in a spirit of civility, hope and mutual respect. I kid you not.

AJC today “al-Qaida Leader Praises Taliban Attacks”:
*Al-Zawahri bemoaned the lack of support for Al-Qaida-linked militants in Saudi Arabia, saying the mujahedeen had suffered “defeat” amid a high-profile anti-terror campaign by Saudi authorities.
“These idolatrous regimes achieve victory over us because each of us wants to save his own skin and avoid harm for himself”, al-Zawahri said on the tape.
“As long as this malignant illness continues to survive within us, there no hope for victory and there can only be more defeats, tragedies, disasters and betrayals.”*

BigDaddy, is it me, or is Hollywood simply starting to turn South Park episodes into movies in lieu of developing their own original ideas? Brokeback Mountain is basically a feature-length adaptation of the episode where the Sundance Festival moves to South Park. Cartman remarks that independent films are all about a bunch of “gay cowboys eating pudding”. Later we’re shown a clip of 2 cowbows, where one says to the other “Well, Jim, we’re all out of pudding. What do you want to do?” “Let’s explore our sexuality”. Now Farrely brothers are putting out The Ringer, which is a dead ringer (sorry) for a Special Olympics episode where Cartman pretends to be retarded to win.
I just hope we don’t see a live-action, 2 hour long Mr. Hankie movie…

In the Johnny Cash movie “Walk the Line” Johnny recounts that many Christians objected to his performance in prisons. They did not want the lot of the prisoners to be made easier. What did Johnny say about these Christians? He said, they aren’t Christians.
So I guess Christians would not be more tolerant of unwed mothers and bastard children, even though their Jesus was a bastard and their Virgin Mary anything but.

The Pope has just deplored the commercialization of Christmas. As have countless clerics over the years. Why has this happened? Is it because of the evil Jewish merchants who have made Christmas commercial to profit from it. That’s what we were taught by Catholic teachers years ago.
Could it be instead that Christians like their Christmas commercial, rather than boringly spiritual?

As a senator, Mr. McCarthy was an unabashed liberal unafraid to take on Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R-Wis.) and his alarmist warnings about the communist menace. More often, Mr. McCarthy was viewed by peers as something of a ruminator and a curmudgeon

What the Dems need to do is admit they believe what Dean and Pelosi are saying about the war. The only reason they don’t is because they know they will lose the election. Look at Humprey in 68, crushed by Nixon. Americans don’t want to hear about pulling out. Americans aren’t the type of people to leave a job not complete. That is what cause the 9/11 attacks in the first place. Osama perceived weakness from the US and thought we would only respond with police action. He forgot that Clinton wasn’t in office anymore.

I can tell that it is the Lord’s day because all of the heretics are out. It doesn’t take much for them to feel hounded and to lash out at their Creator, to be consumed with hate. They hate the U.S., they hate victory and they hate themselves. When they speak of tolerance, when judging others of course, you have to wonder what that could possibly mean, nothing they say is anywhere close to what they actually do.
To them the real world and life is what they see inside of their TV sets or on the big screen. They have no bearing in life, they are easily led; they just mimic what others do and Hollywood is their “guide.” If the TV says it’s morally superior, then that’s good enough for them.
Before long, their brains turn to mush and rage is their only recourse.
I have no idea what made Johny Cash such a wise man, it certainly wasn’t his singing.

From an Aug. 25, 1998, Undersecretary of State Thomas Pickering responding to criticisms of the Clinton administration’s missile strike against the al Shifa pharmaceutical factory in Khartoum, Sudan, in retaliation for the Aug. 7 al Qaeda truck-bomb attacks against two U.S. embassies in East Africa: Q: Ambassador Pickering, do you know of any connection between the so-called pharmaceutical plant in Khartoum and the Iraqi government in regard to production of precursors of VX [nerve gas]? Mr. Pickering: Yeah, I would like to consult my notes just to be sure that what I have to say is stated clearly and correctly. We see evidence that we think is quite clear on contacts between Sudan and Iraq. In fact, al Shifa officials, early in the company’s history, we believe were in touch with Iraqi individuals associated with Iraq’s VX program.

The yet unforeseen repurcussions of Tookie Williams execution or reprieve, whichever the case may be, leaves me to wonder. I will say that hindsight often gives justification or demonization to our decisions. Unfortunately we don’t have the benefit of hindsight when making them.
May I also say that Mr. Williams, too, was not afforded that advantage and therein lies (RIP those whom he killed)the circumstance in which he finds himself.

As Darryl and Sims walked to the counter area to take money from the register, Williams walked behind Owens, pulling the sawed-off shotgun from under his jacket and told Owens to “shut up and keep walking.� While pointing the shotgun at Owens’ back, Williams directed him to a back storage room. Not long after, Williams blew out a security camera and then killed Owens, shooting him twice in the back at point blank range as he lay prone on the storage room floor.
The pathologist who conducted the autopsy on Owens testified that the end of the barrel was “very close� to Owens’ body when he was shot. One of the two wounds was described as “a near contact wound.�
After Williams murdered Owens, he, Darryl, Coward and Sims fled in the two cars and returned home to Los Angeles. The robbery netted Williams and his associates approximately $120.00. Once back in Los Angeles, Sims asked Williams why he shot Owens. Williams said that he “didn’t want to leave any witnesses.� Williams also said he killed Owens “because he was white and he was killing all white people.� Coward claims that Williams bragged about killing Owens. Williams said, “You should have heard the way he sounded when I shot him.� Williams then made gurgling or growling noises and laughed about Owens’ death

Let me lay this out for all of you dim bulbs out there that have a hard time following along on your own: December 25th, every year, is the day that Christians celebrate the Birth of Our Lord and Saviour. It matters not if this calender day used to be reserved for “all saints pinko day” or whatever. Now it is a Blessed Day for us to remember the Virgin Birth and the Promise of Eternal Life. You are free to work on this day if it offends you, we don’t care.
I’m not absurd enough to tell you, as January 1st approaches, Happy New Calender Day! or some silly pinko PC thing like that. I also have no problem with Happy Hanukkah! To each his own. Why do you libs have such a hard time acknowledging the fact that 85% of this country is Christian and this is our day? Is it a mental thing?
The 3 wise men came to Baby Jesus bearing gifts. It was the least they could do in exchange for God’s Grace and Forgiveness. Christians exchange gifts in this same spirit, it signifies the Gifts that have been Promised to us by the Holy Father. Get over it.

According to the forensic pathologist, Yen-I Yang suffered two shotgun wounds. One shotgun wound was to his left arm and abdomen. This wound shredded Yen-I’s left arm, fractured his ribs, and shattered his spleen, right kidney, bowel and large vessels. The other shotgun wound was to the lower left chest. This wound also fractured ribs and shattered the spleen, right kidney, bowel and large vessels. Moreover, a plastic shotgun shot container and associated wadding were recovered from the base of Yen-I’s liver. The pathologist further explained that both of the Yen-I Yang’s wounds were inflicted when the end of the muzzle was only feet from Yen-I’s body.
Yee-Chen Lin was shot once in the upper left face area at a distance of a few feet. She was transported from the scene by paramedics to Centinela Hospital where she died at 7:36 am.
Tsai-Shai was shot twice at close range. The pathologist explained that one shotgun wound was to the coccyx or tail bone. Based on the physical characteristics of the wound and the fact that wadding, along with the plastic shot container, were recovered just beneath the skin of this wound, the muzzle of the gun must have been just inches from her body when she was shot and killed. The other shotgun wound was to the anterior abdomen with the charge entering at the navel. At trial, the pathologist testified that the muzzle of the gun was a few feet from Tsai-Shai’s body when the shot that caused this wound was fired. Williams referred to the victims in conversations with friends as “Buddha-heads”, although there was no evidence that the murders were religiously motivated.
Williams was convicted of the murders of all four individuals and sentenced to death. In addition, associates in prison recall him claiming to have murdered police. He is also believed to have ordered killings inside the prison.

However, many are working their butts off to rebuild their lives, and they are deserving of respect and admiration.
I am talking about the large number who b-itch, whine and want handouts for life.
Now, these losers are complaining about Mardi Gras, saying it should be cancelled, because a time of celebration would be “insensitive”

Narnia is a Christian movie because it is a fairytale. Christianity is a fairytale.

Then they shoot at OUR young men and women and when we SHOOT back, they can go screaming “HEY AMERICANS kill civilians”. Take off the hate blinders and understand what these people do. The blood lies directly on the hands of the insurgents/Saddam’s last soldiers. They are the coldblooded killers, not us. They fight 2 battles, one on the field and one in the papers. They can’t win on the field, but they know those bleeding hearts in the papers will waiver when we need support the most and I guess it worked on you.

I’m sure the Nazis, Soviets, Viet Cong, and North Korea all had instructions on how to accomplish those aims. And our Armed Forces stood up to them to prevent these regimes from continuing their evil (albeit with mixed results).

The difference is that the US Armed Forces don’t fight in the name of any god, they fight in the name of the United States, against those (in this case) that would force upon others their views of Allah. Likening the War in Iraq to the Crusades sounds catchy, but it is not a tenable position. We are not there for dominion, and eventually we will be able to leave, and hopefully sooner rather than later.

Keep in mind that we are fighting for a people who has suffered 35 years of oppression under an evil dictator. There will be collateral damage and that is unfortunate. But I believe that it is a war that must be fought and I am grateful for those who are brave enough to engage in the battle.

Christians have celebrated the birth of Jesus for 2000 years without having much information about him, certainly nothing about his birth. The bible stories, old and new testament, are imaginative and propagandistic — designed to propagate a certain set of beliefs. There is little reliable information about Jesus and what there is points to him as entirely a man and one believing in the imminent end of the world through God’s intervention to save Israel from the Roman oppression. This divine intervention did not occur, and Jesus died and was buried. And that was the end of that. Apocalyptic visionaries and ambitious propagandists made up a variety of stories knowing that there would always be enough fools and/or knaves to keep this story going. It continues .. but woe to you who believe. You will find that there is no truth to it at all.

Excerpted from Kathleen Blanco’s unofficial memoirs-
“Our answer is the National Guard is in charge of security under her direction,” Blanco chief of staff Andy Kopplin wrote. “The mayor is in charge of the city. The governor is in charge of the state and the guard and security. The federal government is now meeting important missions that it has. Does this dress make me look incompetent?
Gosh, that’s just what I thought.

Uh no! Bush ain’t (is not) a swell guy. THe war in Iraq has some other meaning besides that of war on terror. Andy there is no basis for the claim that you make. If you want to justify war by the eradication of terror, then Afghanistan is justified. However Andy, war has never stopped the hatred. you still have Nazis that want to bring about race wars, you will still have extreme islamist that want to engage in their war.

Social Security Surplus
BUSH PLEDGES NOT TO TOUCH SOCIAL SECURITY SURPLUS… “We’re going to keep the promise of Social Security and keep the government from raiding the Social Security surplus.” [President Bush, 3/3/01]
…BUSH SPENDS SOCIAL SECURITY SURPLUS The New York Times reported that “the president’s new budget uses Social Security surpluses to pay for other programs every year through 2013, ultimately diverting more than $1.4 trillion in Social Security funds to other purposes.” [The New York Times, 2/6/02]

Patient’s Right to Sue
GOVERNOR BUSH VETOES PATIENTS’ RIGHT TO SUE… “Despite his campaign rhetoric in favor of a patients’ bill of rights, Bush fought such a bill tooth and nail as Texas governor, vetoing a bill coauthored by Republican state Rep. John Smithee in 1995. He… constantly opposed a patient’s right to sue an HMO over coverage denied that resulted in adverse health effects.” [Salon, 2/7/01]
…CANDIDATE BUSH PRAISES TEXAS PATIENTS’ RIGHT TO SUE… “We’re one of the first states that said you can sue an HMO for denying you proper coverage… It’s time for our nation to come together and do what’s right for the people. And I think this is right for the people. You know, I support a national patients’ bill of rights, Mr. Vice President. And I want all people covered. I don’t want the law to supersede good law like we’ve got in Texas.” [Governor Bush, 10/17/00]
…PRESIDENT BUSH’S ADMINISTRATION ARGUES AGAINST RIGHT TO SUE “To let two Texas consumers, Juan Davila and Ruby R. Calad, sue their managed-care companies for wrongful denials of medical benefits ‘would be to completely undermine’ federal law regulating employee benefits, Assistant Solicitor General James A. Feldman said at oral argument March 23. Moreover, the administration’s brief attacked the policy rationale for Texas’s law, which is similar to statutes on the books in nine other states.” [Washington Post, 4/5/04]

Issues BigDaddy? lets start with the war. Then we can start with your love affair with Bush. The libertarians I talk with and read about think Bush is one of the biggest disasters to hit this country. His cozying up with the religious right is a lot more of a threat to this country than liberals at this time. The patriot act is another issue. The tax breaks without equal spending cuts could cause serious problems. But all you do around here is jump on Andy’s bandwagon with the pinko cr@p. You are a phony. You SEEM to be nothing more than a far right wing conservative Republican.

“Frankly, it is probably part of my own fault for needling people, but it’s a myth to think I don’t know what’s going on,” Bush said. “And it’s a myth to think that I’m not aware that there (are) opinions that don’t agree with mine. Because I’m fully aware of that.”

So, before you even allow me to respond to your assertions, you’ve already determined that I’m a phony? Clever argumentative skill… First of all, for the record, I’ve never called anyone on this board a pinko, nor have I “jumped” on anyone’s bandwagon. I have fun conversing with a wide array of people on this board with varying political views. Just because I don’t see fit to denigrate everyone with whom I disagree doesn’t mean I’m incapable of spending a little QT with them.
Now, were you to go back and read what I’ve previously written about the Bush administration and the domination of Washington by the Republican party, you would see that I agree that this experiment in one-party rule has been a dismal failure.
The Republicans have been spending like drunken Democrats, and Bush has not had the temerity to veto one, single spending bill. And that makes me sick. What makes me even more sick is the spinelessness the administration has displayed by not pushing harder for tax reform, Medicare reform and Social Security reform. (Though my solution, based on sound economic theory, would be to eliminate the lot).
As to the perceived threat from the religious right, I feel, it is a bit overblown. Perhaps you could cite some examples of how the religious right is forcing government encroachment on our rights and liberties. In so doing you might persuade me. If you persist, however, in calling me names, you will not only not persuade me, but will also belittle your own viewpoints.
Libertarians are by nature rational people. Please conduct yourself accordingly.

You AGAIN fail to answer my question, RW. Again, my assumption is that it’s because you cannot. Pictures are nice, but what I want is a number. Now the website I could find quotes about 300,000 for his regime, plus close to a million more for the Iran-Iraq War, which I’m not sure who started. So, let’s see: that’s about 800,000, but let’s say a million total. Which is huge and horrible. But comparable to just about any regime in the region. Still, horrid horrid man. OK?
So why the hell didn’t Bush say to the American people and to the world: “This is what that man has done, we need to take him out for the sake of Iraqis”? Then the country, and the world, could decide whether or not to engage in this war. Why did he have to lie for years?
You would also note that there are atrocities committed by regimes all over the globe. Angola: 550,000. Somalia: 400,000. Etc. Why did Bush pick Saddam?

rushncap,
If you go back to where you started the alleged questions I answered the straight forward question, I provided a resource for somewhat mocking question, and I ignored the rhetorical questions.
As for the new questions. let’s see. #1 rhetorical (see above) #2 He did. #3 He didn’t #4 see 2 and 3.
But, a day isn’t really complete without rushncap griping about questions not being answered. Now maybe that thats done ml will scribble something new.

rushncap,
On Saddam Hussein’s orders, opponents have been decapitated, wives and mothers of political opponents have been systematically raped as a method of intimidation, and political prisoners have been forced to watch their own children being tortured.
America believes that all people are entitled to hope and human rights, to the non-negotiable demands of human dignity. People everywhere prefer freedom to slavery; prosperity to squalor; self-government to the rule of terror and torture. America is a friend to the people of Iraq. Our demands are directed only at the regime that enslaves them and threatens us. When these demands are met, the first and greatest benefit will come to Iraqi men, women and children. The oppression of Kurds, Assyrians, Turkomans, Shi’a, Sunnis and others will be lifted. The long captivity of Iraq will end, and an era of new hope will begin.
Looks like he did, just over three years ago too

whynot, I am pretty sure Bush didn’t shoot or blow up anyone of the soldiers who died serving their country overseas. I guarantee if you ask them less than 5% would blame the President. And to say that he killed them you are infering that he led us into an illegal war. That is obviously not true since the UN resolution stated that if Saddam violated the terms of the peace treaty he signed after the Gulf War than any member of the coalition could return to Iraq to take Saddam out of power. And it is pretty ridiculous to compare Stalin and Bush.

Well hey believe it or not neither did Stalin a faction known as the “Secret Police” did (kinda reminds me of the Patriot act)and if you wanna talk U.N. let us not forget the actual U.N. charter with the power of the Vetoe (VIVA LA FRANCE) and furthemore I would not be infering you would be infering I would be implying.
