Thread Name: BS: The real George Bush
Subject: RE: BS: The real George Bush
These facts have been available on the internet for several years. The only reason to bring them up at the present time is that the liberals cannotSTAND the idea that George Bush was successful at ANYTHING let alone a war that they all opposed sovehemently.
Thousands of American servicemen will come home in bodybags was just one of the predictions. It will be a house-to-house fight with thousands of casualties on both sides was another. The US can't win a war, was another.
Now that all these things have been proven false, the only thing left is to attack Bushs past; to try to somehow negate what he has accomplished by by saying "Look how horrible he WAS".
That dog won't hunt.
Kendall, just how do you think it could have been done without so many lives lost. And yes, I DO count Iraqi lives. They are, after all, human beings. That's one of the reasons we went in; so that those human beings might have a chance at the freedom that so many Americans take for granted. So how would you have done it?
Please don't bring up the UN, who did nothing for twelve long years.
Ebbie, you are the one who isn't thinking. Just how will our overthrowing Saddam Hussein create more Saddam Husseins? Remember, he was the dictator of a country. How is this going to create more dictators?
As far as Saddam Husseins forces being a "paper Army" Kendall, why don't you look up the numbers -what he had versus what we broght- and get back to me. Besides his army, the Iraqi people were supposed to rise up and fight as well. After all, we saw them on T>V>, shouting "Death to Bush" and "We Love Saddam Hussein" didn't we?
I say again; everything you are posting is sour grapes. Bush and his cabinet and his generals came up with a plan, put it into execution, made minor changes where necessary, and came home a winner.
The world now knows that America has a President who will do what he says on the international stage. The Arab states respect strength, it's about the only thing they DO respect. This should set the stage for doing something about the Israeli/Palestinian Arab problem> And where is Kim Jong-Il. Where is the dictator of North Korea with his grandiose pronouncments and his insults? He has been rather quiet of late, don't you think? Maybe he is re-thinking his position in light of the past three weeks. Maybe challenging the US isn't such a good idea after all.
Finally (for this post) it seems to me that it was the liberal establishment who tried to excuse Clintons lack of any discernable moral code by saying that character and integrity weren't important; what counted were results.
I guess that only applies to Democrats.
