I'm sorry but why do people always resort to saying "if you dont like it then leave?" the same thing was said when African Americans protested for civil rights back in the day...if you don't like it go back to Africa!" This is my country, we and yes I mean we, have a right to protest the hypocrisy of this war and we have a right to voice our public outrage with the idiot that calls himself president. We don't have to go ANYWHERE!
Firstly: Its all about his father and the Gulf War, its all about oil. Plain and simple...no beating around the bush (pardon the pun.)
There are other countries that have nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction, N. Korea for instance, but are we waging war against them, no.... we're not. Why? Ask yourself that question.
Secondly: Is this part of that so-called war against terroism that he calls himself fighting? Because if I remember correctly, Saddam Hussein was not behind that, Osama Bin Laden was, or have we all forgotten about him because the president certainly seems to forgotten about him. That's the bad guy, remember that. What a joke.
What have we done lately to make the US and the world a safer place, have we captured Bin Laden...can we get back to that.
Thirdly: My mom always used to say "take care of your own backyard before you start messing in someone elses." We have problems here in the US: unemployment, homelessness, education, the economy. Let's trying getting a few things straight here before we run out and try to save the world. He doesn't even care about whats going on here, since it doesn't directly affect him or his family, why should he care.
I cannot wait until 2004, he's had four free years on us, as a country we are in worse shape now than we've been in a decade. If we sit back and allow this man to be re-elected, we deserve everything we get.
Don't get me wrong, I support our troops.... I have family and friends who are fighting and supporting our country but I DO NOT agree with what THAT man is doing in the name of so-called democracy.
