I'd like to see Gore elected again. He's got one thing going for him that none of the other candiates have. He opposed Bush's war in Iraq from the beginning.

But it's really to soon to consider any of that seriously.

Hillary didn't oppose "Bush's war in Iraq" (Which by the way was supported overwhelmingly by the Congress)...would you like to see her elected?

Nope she didn't.

But if W's administrations ONLY real defense, when they are being accused of lying and misrepresenting the intel they passed on, is that they were stupid and didn't know any better then they are still negligent at the very least.

As far as who should be elected... Ask me in about 11 months. I still don't really care about 08 yet.

Maybe because they aren't there.

And then he blew it by starting the Iraq thing. And blew it again by not supporting our troops in providing the infrastructure support to govern the county once we invaded it.

No you didn't, it's easier to frame things in democratic/republican/left/right exercise than to look at the root cause of an issue and deal with it.

For the anti-Bushies are you willing to surrender in Iraq and pull out the troops.?
And just how did you translate Mr. Bush's comment "our committment to Iraq is not open ended" (not a direct quote but paraphrasing how i remember it)

Quote:
.(the Hillary process)
Is she the only one? Care to list the others on both sides of the spectrum who have called for withdrawal.

Quote:
or are you willing to stay until the job is finished?
I seem to remember some years ago an aircraft carrier and "mission accomplished". The job he was authorized to do got finished. That he and his subordinates botched the job of governing/rebuilding the country afterwards and left our soldiers in an untenable situation which leads to the current status.

That he will not come clean, even after all that has transpired is the shame in all this. We occupied Germany and Japan into the 50's to keep the peace and put those countries on the road to functionality. You may have heard of the Marshall Plan? We need a Rice plan.

Quote:
.Are you willing to support our president or ANY president doing what is necessary to stop Iran from having nukes...or can you sleep at night with them having nukes? What is your answer?
Why are we the decider of who has nukes and doesn't? I worry more about the dude in charge of Pakistan getting wasted and having those warheads fall into the hands of the same folks who planned/carried out the 9/11 stuff.

Do I take it you think we should invade Iran?
