48 hours or bust

[mysecondstar]

looks like, unless saddam hussein leaves, we're off to war. you could here the, "i want to kick saddam hussein's ass" in his voice. we'll see how fast this will take.

[Jimsween]

Watching CSPAN I heard a person call in and say, "I think we should tell Bush he and his daughters have to get out of the country and then put the true president, Al gore, into office" so I turned it to fox news to hear loud roars in the backround. If Bush's plan was to turn the entire nation insane he has succeeded, but seriously I thought it was a good speech.

[NJDeadzone]

the US has been dropping bombs on various sites lol, the war has already started!!

[JudgeDredd]

i can just see "Sad-man Insane" sit'n there with his cuban cigar wearing one of those slogan T-shirts wiff a big self-portrait and flick-off finger raised.. reading; Nostradamus Sez - "Eat Me or BU$T"

..and maybe the T is crossed out and H is scibbled instead (..signed "daddy's boy")

[JMHX]

Just a few random points I'd like to hit on in this thread before it becomes populated:

1. Idiots have come telling me this is going to be World War III. No, it's not. It's going to be a simple invasion and then we're going to end it. World Wars have involved massive invasions of nations and the expanding of empires. Saddam Hussein is no imperialistic Adolf Hitler.

2. Propaganda is bad. I would more compare Adolf Hitler to George Bush, except George hasn't killed the people in X-Ray. Everyone wondered how so many could blindly follow Hitler? Look at Bush? I've heard, so far, 50 random people saying "We're going to get Saddam! Let's go! Kill them all! Sand N*ggers! (edited due to moral standings)

3. Saddam leaving is not going to happen. Either he's already slipped out and left his sons to lead, or he's in a bunker somewhere waiting for an invasion to happen and everyone to leave. Granted, it's all speculation, but it's still valid.

That's all for now. Enjoy.

[TheShrike]

Even if Iraqi soldiers throw down their weapons, people cheer on the invading troops, it will never ever change my opinion that Dubya is a warmongering idiot.

Please.... If you can vote...
Next presidential election, vote for ANYONE except Bush. I will do it due to moral objection. He stole the elction (Florida? The state his brother was the govenor of??), and he completely disreguards his own people and the UN by starting a 'pre-emptive war'.
And he can't pronounce "nu-kyu-lar" to save his own life.

There has been reports that Sadam has men buying up diamonds in the south pacific, leading me to belive he will stay until it gets to hot, then will flee to libya or somewhere Sadam friendly. He has nothing to worry about money wise since he has siphoned off billions of oil revenue into swiss bank accounts. yipee!

..maybe you mis-understand the term "ULTIMATUM" ..it means if Saddam is still in Iraq in 46.5 hours then he won't be "slipping thru" to some other refuge country alive. I'd rekon that all human exodous will be blood tested on the Iraqi borders ;)

[Jlop985]

I don't like Bush's motives for the war, but at least we're getting rid of that Sadam bastard we should have gotten rid of in 1991.

dude are you high DREDD? anyway, what are you talking about that all human exodus will be blood tested on the border? and i'm sure that saddam hussien could easiler slip through if he really wanted to.

on a different note, i'm watching ABCnews and they are showing the two possibilities of attack for the coalition forces. sick.

[RydiaLockheart]

I agree that Saddam Hussein needs to go. But who will succeed him? That's my concern.

[TheShrike]

Just another idiot backed by the US until he, too goes haywire

Saddam isn't leaving. War is coming.

Negatives

-Bush is going to war
-There's nothing I can do to stop the fascist
-maybe it will be a harsh war for America? Who knows

Positives

I somehow doubt that.

Do you forget that Clinton didn't even bother sending troops into Afghanistan when Al Qaida acted up during his administration?
Ohh yeah-Clinton simply sent a bunch of missiles into their heartland, and blew up training camps. Simple and precise.

To accuse the democrats of being incompetent shows your true bias, as well as your ignorance.

It wasn't Bush's idea to tighten security. It was a nation-wide call for it. Airports would be harder to sneak weapons into even if you were president.

It wasn't Bush's idea to invade Afghanistan. It was a nation-wide call for it. Those who plotted 9/11 would be international fugitives even if you were president.

[mysecondstar]

TheShrike is absolutely right. that is one of the mose Republican things i've heard in some time.

i had this debate with my sister, who happens to be a super conservative, and she was insistent that the Democrats wouldn't have taken care of the terrorist crisis as well as the GOP did. i said that it wouldn't matter whose administration it was, it would not only get them reelected for another term, but also make no difference as to the mission in Afghanistan after 9/11.

It's nice to witness a little written common sense once in a while. Bush is by no means the leader of an innovative, brave or intelligent party. Take a comatose patient for example who swats a fly from his cheek; its simply a reflex reaction to stimulus.

[JMHX]

I might just be the biggest Clinton supporter out there, but I noticed something wrong here. Clinton launched the missiles into Afghanistan to distract attention from the indictment and the entire Lewinsky scandal, somewhat like Wag the Dog. It didn't work.

I enjoy listening to the man, but the thought of him actually having interest in the cruise missiles is just beyond me. Oh well, at least SOME people bought it.

That's true. 100%. But I honestly believe he woulda done it anyway. He may have been an idiot when reacting to the Lewinsky situation (I didn't do it, I did.. Please define sex, etc) , but anyone would have know nothing short of war would take the news from that circus.

In other words, he's moved the goalposts once again. It wasn't about nukes after all, just moving him out and his own Paper Premier in all along. Glad that got cleared up at long fucking last.

President Clinton, in 1998, declared our switch in US policy to regime change in Iraq. It isn't something brand new, as you would like to think. Also, you are under the misconception that it was "just about nukes". That was, and is, one concern. UN Resolution specifically says in paragraph 3:

3. Decides that, in order to begin to comply with its disarmament obligations, in addition to submitting the required biannual declarations, the Government of Iraq shall provide to UNMOVIC, the IAEA, and the Council, not later than 30 days from the date of this resolution, a currently accurate, full, and
complete declaration of all aspects of its programmes to develop chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, and other delivery systems such
as unmanned aerial vehicles and dispersal systems designed for use on aircraft, including any holdings and precise locations of such weapons, components, subcomponents, stocks of agents, and related material and equipment, the locations and work of its research, development and production facilities, as well as all other chemical, biological, and nuclear programmes, including any which it claims are for
purposes not related to weapon production or material;

Aw.....I thought it was about nukes.

[clownfish]

Bush's chance for being reëlected is somewhere between 0 and 0.00001 percent. The only worry is that his successor will be just as big an idiot as he is... The only chance for Bush to get a few votes a second time is win the war in less than a day, so that he could use it in all of his bullshit propagandist speeches.

Bush's approval rating is amazing. if this war ends quickly and he quickly address the economy, which should correct itself, he'll take 2004 with no problem. in fact, if the US finds chemical or biological weapons, it'll be garaunteed that he'll be reelected. and i find that very possible. in fact, i am going to vote Bush in the 2004 elections like i did in 2000. he is one of the most moderate Republicans ever, and that is right up my alley.

Clinton didn't do nearly enough. Just launch a few missiles in response to the bombing of the USS Cole, bomb Iraq for about a week to draw attention away from his impeachment proceedings, etc, etc. Clinton had plenty of opportunities, and he blew them all.

Hey, hey, hey. Calling the Democrats incompetent doesn't make him ignorant. That's just his opinion. You may not share it, but that doesn't mean it's not valid. Hell, I think the Dems were incompetent too.
