There are many many things on this website... This website is supported by NOW, - National Organization of Women , have fun . ... also please check out "Bush's Innerwordsmith" on the same page. Thank you!
Wait... how is the President in denial about the torture chambers and rape rooms being gone? Because if you're talking about the Abu-Garab prison thing, you are very full of shit.
YEAH! you tell 'em! our prisions here are just one mighty sodomy free-for-all, and our use of electrodes and fear of being eaten alive by dogs totally beats saddam's tactics.... and we don't.... wait... we did detain people indefinitely without access to a lawer........ hey... wait a second.
Hey, Don't call him full of shit, if you are angry about those quotes being related to Abu Ghraib, than email the site and bitch at them, but all he did was copy and paste them here, he wasn't the one that wrote them himself. Peace and Love, Dan
I think that Bush has an unhealthy obsession with rape rooms and torture chambers, he talks about them entirely too much. Perhaps there is something we don't know about our resident. :& One would think that after the 10 interview in which he discusses rape rooms, torture chambers and mass graves that he would have picked up a freakin thesaurus and found a different way to say the same thing. I mean what kind of politician doesn't know how to do that?
Do people here honestly believe that the mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners by American soldiers, reprehensible as it might be, can be compared to the mass killing of dissidents perpetrated by Saddam Hussein?
No, but then again it would have been nice if the U.S. hadn't been supporting Saddam when he was carrying out those atrocities. Ashame that the U.S. and Britain were the only countries that vetoed the U.N. resolution in 1988 condemning Saddam's use of chemical weapons. But yet in 2003, they claimed it was a horrible thing.
nope I just find Bush to be annoying and find it interesting that he couldn't have come up with a different way to say the same damn thing over and over and over and over and over again. It isn't just him, I don't really care to listen to anyone who repeats the same meaningless crap. That is pretty much why I don't respond to as many threads here as I used to because most of it is the same ol shit just a different day and a different poster. I personally was not comparing any killings because it is my opinion that two wrongs do not make a right and I'm not really down with killing anyone. But that is just me. You carry on.
Do you honestly believe that 3000 dead at 9/11, reprehensible as it might be, can be compared to the slaying of 13000 innocent iraqi's and the atomic dust that will be there for millions of years? 9/11 was horrible, but because of that 13000 people who never did anything didnt have to die either. Think about it. Dont call me some sort of terrorist supported or somthing stupid, because I'm not.
Fair enough. Are there ever cases in which you believe that military action is justified, despite the inevitable risk of civilian casualties?
