Bobert, if I didn't know you better I'd think you were a skeptic.

For Christ's sake, Mudcatters, you have all been bitching because the U. S. took out Saddam and took over Iraq. Bush said at the time we have no interest in occuping Iraq and today, the government was handed over to Iraqis appointed by Iraqis. Of course the new government is not TOTALLY in control, BECAUSE they have no security forces other than the coilation forces! Jeeze, what kind of logic do you understand?

The US never had any interest in annexing Iraq. The only purpose for invading Iraq was to try to bring some stability (read safety for us and other free people)to that country, and free the Iraqi people from a tyrant. I know that many of you don't give a rat's ass about the Iraqi people, but thank goodness the US and Great Britian, along with leaders of her coilation countries do.

Aren't liberal thinkers SUPPOSED to be compassionate? That's certainly what you champion, unless the compassion required is contrary to what you want, right?

Somehow, I have serious doubts that most of you Mudcatters will ever be satisfied. Look at the half-empty glass, that's what sustains you!
