ORIGINAL: Sanity Here is the main point, Lib Dems went apoplectic over the mention that we were helping the Iraqi people. They dragged out and harped on every reason imaginable why it was "impeachable" or "war crimes" for the U.S. to do so, everyone from Barack Obama and Joe Biden on down to Dennis Kucinich and Michael Moore. Leftists screamed that it cost too much money, that we were interfering in the internal affairs of a sovereign nation, screeched about how our soldiers were "committing war crimes" and that we were there for the oil, they asked when we were going to liberate China and North Korea... their blathering went on and on. Turns out it was all purely political, the leftists were demeaning the United States and exploiting the Iraq war in order to undermine President Bush. Now, certain morons here are trying to say that Im the hypocrite for pointing their hypocrisy out. quote:
ORIGINAL: xBullx Actually I recall the humanitarian issue being a big deal on the Iraq table as well. I wish I had more time, I'm off to a wedding so I'll have to deffer for now. But I don't believe this is just about the humanitarian efforts anymore than Iraq was just about WMD... If we all put down our political game faces for a while we'll see what's really going on...... I think. Or,and I know this sounds like a radical idea..."Leftists"looked at that situation,the steady and unrelenting rhythm of the war drums,the increasingly tenuous assertion of the presence of WMD's...and decided that it was all so much smoke and mirrors....so out of love for their country and an honestly arrived at distaste for the invasion ....they protested,objected and otherwise spoke their minds. Fast forward 8 years....and an entirely new situation comes along....and folks of a liberal bent have examined this new situation,looked at these new facts presented to them and have ,once again,arrived at honestly held beliefs as to how they feel about things.Some of them once again feel that we are making a mistake(RML for one) while others feel we are doing the right thing(myself as a poor example). There is no universally agreed at position from the left....though I do feel I can speak for the majority in saying(perhaps I am wrong here,if so it is an honest mistake)that none of us see the correlation you absolutely need to see in making your tenuous and erroneous argument. Now all of this should go in one ear and out the other with you....because,well that's what you do...you make up your mind based on your partisan position and allow no new information to seep thru.....all cool,no one expects anything more from you....but here's a suggestion ...Read this post r e a l s l o w....perhaps I will have no necessity of explaining it again to you
