      I make my judgements on facts as I see them and ignore ideology. The fact is that regardless of the horrible things that occurred on 9/11, and other terrorist attacks, the Bush administration has been using it as an excuse to push its own agenda. Yes people are better off without Saddam. But only just I would say. The way that Bush got from A to B was by using lies and disception. Is that the kind of person that you want in office? I would say the worse problem is that Bush is using it as a means to enrich himself and his cronies. The deficits have hit all time highs. There is high unemployment because he has put business interests over American interests. BTW where is Osama bin Laden, has this war on terror stopped them from bombing Madrid?

      One thing that concerns me is many people in the US seem to think that Iraq was behind the attack on WTC. Is my perception correct and if so, what balance would you put on government and media as causes ? Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                As long as you will use systematically violence, insults and disrespect in your posts, you will be considered by many as a trolling buffoon. You can't attack people and then hope they will listen to you. Hatred can't be a valid communication mode.

                  Maybe. In my defense I'd say that I'm targeting an individual, rather than entire racial/ethnic/religious/political groups, as Mr. Gaskey is wont to do. I was also responding to being indirectly called a liberal asshole. I'd say my response was justified.

                        My perception is that there aren't many people who seem to think this. But then again I tend to surround myself with people who are educated and involved in world affairs. The rhetoric of the media and the government can be misleading at times so I can understand how those that are less informed might think that. Sorry, I won't attempt to analyze who's more to blame.

                          I wish I had the self control to be able to put into words how I feel as well as you have, but I do get overly-emotive regarding some of the xenophopic and near-racist comments and commentaries I've seen here regarding nations unwilling to beg scraps from the table of the Bush administration (see, there I go AGAIN!). I know that America, and it's people, are not fairly represented in the commentaries I refer to and wherever you're from I'd like to say thank you for bringing me back some perspective.

                                      Terry O`Nolley wrote: Who is the person that rabid liberals fear most? Not conservatives - they are easily beaten. The answer is an intelligent liberal that isn't tied body and soul to the extreme liberal platform. You are apparently referring to yourself. Your image of yourself is not widely shared. Terry O`Nolley wrote: I think that the opinion I hold that most offends self-righteous liberal bastards is my "You must be a Saddam supporter" position. That is certainly offensive but is symptomatic of a broader problem which is: 1. An inability to accept that people of goodwill might disagree with you. 2. A reluctance to honestly engage with other people's views, preferring instead to defame them by attributing to them a distorted caricature of their true opinions. John Carson "I wish to propose for the reader's favourable consideration a doctrine which may, I fear, appear wildly paradoxical and subversive. The doctrine in question is this: that it is undesirable to believe a proposition when there is no ground whatever for supposing it true." - Bertrand Russell

                                        Your perception is backed by polls held in the US, and it's clear that a big part of the US excursion into Iraq and general attacks on Saddam is simply that they could not catch Bin Laden and had to be seen to be doing SOMETHING.
