tkhayes 348 #1 September 11, 2004 Something sent to me - passing it on Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion. Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony. A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation. Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton. The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay. If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex. Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism. HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at heart. Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools. A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy. Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet. The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's cocaine conviction is none of our business. Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery. You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt. What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant. If you don't send it to at least 10 other people, we're likely to be stuck with Bush for 4 more years. Friends don't let friends vote Republican!

Where did THAT come from? $77 billion in Serbia? try http://www.state.gov/p/eur/rls/rm/30561.htm and http://sarbanes.senate.gov/pages/press/022603_cost_of_iraq_war_for_rel.html and http://www.airpower.maxwell.af.mil/airchronicles/apj/apj00/win00/hammond.htm and http://www.bernie.house.gov/documents/releases/20040524180159.asp for some comparisons (all links from the US gov't website. Serbia was a NATO and UN operation, not a US one, and cost the country perhaps $15 billion. MANY other countries are sharing in the cost of peacekeeping and rebuilding. Iraq is $128 billion and approaching $200 billion by the end of 2005. Our deficit is real and we/you/I will pay dearly for it. If you are so for it, then perhaps you would not mind paying my share as well. QuoteClinton bombs Chinese embassy - good... Bush bombs terrorist camps - bad. I do not remember ANYONE saying that the Chinese embassy bombing was good or that Bush bombing terrorist camps was bad, but we KNEW there were WMD's - NOT! QuoteNo mass graves found in Serbia - good... No WMD found Iraq - bad. No, the mass graves were found in Bosnia and Kosovo (and lots in Serbia as well, do a little searching.)

mnealtx 0 #12 September 12, 2004 Garbage in/garbage out exists on both sides of the argument. I'm sure if I wanted to spend the time looking, I could find links to refute virtually all the items in the OP. I figured since the OP was a bunch of one-liners that was sent him, I could post a bunch of one-liners sent me.

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime...now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued decit and his consistant grasp for weapons of mass destruction...So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real" --John F.
