One question for the left
Nobody is perfect. Lefties and Righties are both guilty of lies, scare tactics, etc...But I have one question:
Which side is so hate-filled that they goe beyond rationality and logic to pure vitriol? What side produces novels that theorize about ways to assissinate President Bush? What side creates

vicious anti-troops, anti-Bush slogans: "We Support Our Troops, When They Shoot their Officers" and "Bush is the disease. Death is the cure.""Where's your sense of humor?" the libs will ask.
Where's their decency? Their sanity?
Welcome to the sick world of the pro-assassination Left.

Now wait just one minute. First of all, you have the plain idiocy of making TWO slogans stand for an entire movement comprising hundreds of millions, if not billions of people around the world.
Second, you may not remember but the Right encouraged the assasination of Clinton ALL THE TIME. Ann Coulter wrote a column in favor of it and Jesse Helms was even put on the Secret Service watch list for making death threats. These aren't random people at some rally; they're the publicly reocgnized representatives of the conservative
movement.
Apparently, actually killing tens of thousands of Iraqi ciivllians is OK, but suggesting we remove the man responsible for those deaths is not.
I know i shouldn't get frustrated having to explain this, but I do.
1. Saddam could never have caused so much death and chaos in his own country and the region if America hadn't propped him up with money and arms during the 1980's. Who do you think gave him the chemical weapons he used on the Kurds? We did, and Reagan gave Saddam express permission to use them.
2. Saddam would also have never invaded Kuwait if George Bush I hadn't given the invasion his blessing. Saddam was our ally and he didn't want to do anything that would make us mad. It was only after the international outcry did we change course and condemn his actions.
3. We killed tens of thousands of iraqi soldiers, but that doesn't count the carpet-bombing of civilian areas, the use of depleted uranium, the collateral damage from occupying urban areas, and the undocumented cases of US troops simply slaughtering pedestrians at will, which is a fairly common occurence in Iraq.
4. According to The Lancet, the British medical journal, 100,000 people have died as a direct result of the US invasion. That was six months ago; doubtless more have died since then.
5. there's also no accounting for how many have died from the lack of food, water, medicine, and electricity caused by our bombing campaign, or how many have been murdered as a result of the lawlessness apparent in so many parts of Iraq since we took over.
6. The sanctions and embargo imposed by the US and UN from 1991-2003 are estimated to have caused the deaths of 1-1.5 million Iraqis from malnutrition and disease. The numbers would be higher if it weren't for the Oil-for-Food program.
'The sanctions and embargo imposed by the US and UN from 1991-2003 are estimated to have caused the deaths of 1-1.5 million Iraqis from malnutrition and disease. The numbers would be higher if it weren't for the Oil-for-Food program.'
The sanctions might have actually worked if it hadn't been for the Oil for Food Program.
