First of all, must be nice to have 24 hours a day 7 days a week to just sit in front a computer without one care about stuff like having to go ouyt and make a living... So to you especially, bruce, congrates...

Secondly, it would also be nice if Mudcat had a one rebuttal rule... I mean, to come home after 8 hours in the real world and find that bruce has submited half a dozen or more confrontational and rude posts since I last had 10 lousy mintes to catch up on things ain't really respectfull...

Thirdly, I resent being blamed for the Iraqi war deaths... That is an ouright ***lie***... It is folks like Teribus and bruce who have the blood on their hands... Any attempt to turn that around is a bald faced psychopathic ***lie***...

Fourthly, there is a complete lack of historical perspective on bb and t's part about UN Resolution 1441... As others here, as well as Bush's own former Treasury Secretary, have pointed out that the decision to invade Iraq was made even before 9/11... The only reason that Bush ever went to the UN was because Secretary of Sate Colin Powell pushed back against the neocons and so Bush reluctantly went to the UN... This resolution was as bogus as a 3 dollar bill...

Fifthly, both bb abd T refuse to answer TIA's question...

Sixthly, bb has gone back to thinking that he SCREAMS loud enought that will make his positions correct... Silly behavior on his part...

Seventhly, I don't think bb would recognize a fact if it was standing in his doorway so his proclamations that his opinions are based on facts are just that: procalmations... Kinda like his vulgar and childish SCREAMING... Just noise...

Eigthly, the Blix quotes I have posted are indeed Blix quotes and deal with the overall process that was on the ground in Iraq when Bush pulled the plug on sanity... Both bb and t had to be provded a source for them... Hmmmmmmmmm??? Why ask for a source if there wasn't some underlieing thinking that he hadn't said those things??? I mean, in asking for the source they were inferring that they were not aware that Blix had said that the Iraqis was cooperating... Maybe bb and t didn't have that information... I don't know... I do know that its very strange that both would have to be lea to the source of Blix's remarks to the Security Council...

Ninethly, how does one go about proving that don't possess something??? This is philosophically imnpossible... Deamnding it is the ultimate trick bag because it can't be done... If you don't have it then you don't have it...

Lastly, tho the bb's and the teribus's of the world will go to their graves in denial, historians will get the story correct that this war was the US's largest foriegn policy blunder...
