State of the nation address, Mexico

[Craigb]

First time that I have been accused of having that~~~!

Army, I mentioned these as just a "Reminder" to those who think that they can come into a country and do as they please. Just them knowing that we may be crazy enough to use them, could help and act as a deterent. Otherwise, us level headed people, could be seen as anything but that. Hey Army, don't rain on my level headed crazy, as it took me a long time to get this way! lolol

craigb, what your saying is that we are going to "bluff" the rest of the world into thinking we are crazy. and, we could use nukes, so we can scare them? not original at all, your copying Kim Jong-Il the leader of North Korea. let me guess your second part of the plan, demand " 1 BILLION DOLLARS".

I personally don't understand why we have most of our troops in Iraq trying to make their nation stronger while ours falls apart. Does this make sense to anyone else?

Our nation is not "falling apart". If you think that it's because you watch too much CNN. It's IMPORTANT that Iraq is a nation able to stand on it's own. If not it will be run over by the various people in the middle east. (Iran) and perhaps the Kurds to the north. The Middle East is already chaotic enough without other countries all trying to grab a piece of Iraq and the oil that goes with it. And FWIW MOST of our troops are not in Iraq.

iraq was holding their ground just fine until we went in there and had thier leader hung. if we are that nice why aren't we in Darfur. as soon as everyone realizes that the people stopped running this country along time ago, all the decision the government makes will make alot more sense. this country is clearly being run by interest groups.

Darfur? Darfur could collapse tomorrow and it wouldn't make a difference in oil prices or anything. Iraq is a strategically located country. Darfur....well..nothing very strategic there..

my point exactly. G.W. sold us a sales pitch that they had WMD, and we all fell for it. hell, i bought it. several years later = nothing. so were we right to go in there? like i said interest groups, in this case it was george bushs' and his oil buddies. one, to get oil we stopped getting since desset storm. two, to avenge the man that tried to kill his "daddy".

YES...you got it. What the hell has everyone else been thinking. We invaded Iraq to get their oil and to avenge Bush I. Just the fact that you even mention this and probably actually feel this way...well...I pity you. I bet you can't wait for American Idol to start. LOL

Tell you what Joe, click on the link in my sig line and watch the video. Pay attention to the dates in the upper left hand corner. GW does not deserve to be given all the credit for “selling” us on WMDs.
