Thread Name: BS: JR in the White House
Subject: BS: JR in the White House
"Ah, the oil business is booming, Sue-Ellen, with prices over $50 a barrel. Good move, that, invading Iraq." Can't you just see JR chuckling to himself. Now he's reached the White House - and we thought Dallas was fiction!
Now George Bush is saying that Saddam Hussein didn't *have* weapons of mass destructions, no, nor the capacity to make them - but he had the *intention* of making them.
Excuse me just one minute. In no country that I've ever heard of could you be put in jail for *intending* to rob a house! In fact, I think there's a legal term for the fact that intentions are not convict-able, based on the premise that "the Devil knows not the mind of man".
So how can a country kill 15,000 of another country's citizens based on this premise?
