I can't resist. Sorry.

"Apparently UBL is in a hole in Pakistan. The US cannot hunt him in that country... So Bush is a failure because he hasn't found UBL?"

Yes. UBL's the main man behind 9/11. Bush made a big brag about hunting him out of his hole. The US couldn't hunt him in Pakistan, but we could hunt him in Iraq? Come on.

"The majority of people in the military and in the white house believed Chalabi so Bush is a failure?"

Yes. Even here in the backwoods I read about Chalabi's history long before he crashed.

"Let's admit it. We believed he had them. Many of us were saying "screw the slow bumbling UN inspectors, let's go in and get him now" "

Many of us weren't. Check the posts in this forum, for example.

"I still have not seen anything about what Kerry will do except something different from what Bush is doing."

Sounds good to me.

"I for one do not need an asshole like Kerry telling me what to think. I can think independently of the lynch mob."

You don't need an asshole like Kerry OR an asshole like Bush telling you what to think. Nor an asshole like me. Nobody does. Find what facts you can & don't be afraid to change your mind.
