Originally posted by Q5echo you seem to be under the assumption that the U.S. about to forego all of the current diplomatic efforts enabled by France, Germany, and Britain and re-establish the Bush Doctrine again. there have been absolutely no indications of that and to me that does not make sense right now barring a catastrophe. so its obvious that Bush is safer.

Hmm, i don't know what to assume, Bush is just..well you have seen how it went to Iraq. The whole adminsstration denied the whole world, denied the inspectors and the UN and just went to war.
Maybe Bush is safer now because the elections are coming up, but do you think they will be still safe after it? I have my doubts tbh.
It was first WMD, but now it was due the removing of Saddam.

Originally posted by Q5echo free people realize their potential more readily. Iraq has more potential than all Muslem countries. time and extremism are their only obstacles. my country is responsible for that. that is something i am not ashamed of, i don't think any American should be. imagine if all free people weren't.

Well this is true, i always think, why not just stop and start all over, iraq can be one of the richest countries in the world, + the education in iraq was really high before the first gulf war, people are so highly educated there, they can rebuild it easy, unlike Afghanistan.

Originally posted by BadBadNeil thinking that Kerry will magically fix all the world's problems is being a bit naive as well. How will Kerry fix Iraq? How will Kerry solve the worlds problems? How will Kerry fix our medicare system? Will Kerry raise our taxes even higher? How will Kerry magically end the deficit? How will Kerry fix the trade gabs that have plagued us? How will he fix our energy crisis? How will he bring jobs back to America vs. being shipped overseas? How will he win the war on terror? this is just the tip of the iceberg. As much as Bush is hated I haven't seen any concrete ways of solving any problems from Kerry's mouth. He talks an awful lot about how bad Bush is or has been but to offer no solutions just doesn't make him a viable candidate from what I see.

Well and Bush did what? he made America worse, and it's not like he can fix it, but making it even more worse.

Originally posted by BadBadNeil I think of it like a house. He has some termites trying to ruin the structure but he is doing his best to control them without destroying the home itself even if it costs more in the long run.

Sweeping the termites up and droping them of at the door steps in other neighbourhoods is hardly a solution.

I'd take my chances with a new house considering i would have to try selling the current one in 4 years anyways, by which time it will be an old, worn down piece of shit trailer.
