Dubbya at it again?

Well, not like it would be any big surprise: http://www.reuters.com/article/newsO...20593020071025

Some would say that the 'we can talk it out', 'peace in our time' crowd will push us toward war. Much like they did B4 WWI, WWII, etc.

I just haven't figured out how we'd finance another war? Heck, Dubbya wants another $200B for Iraq and now SoCal is in pretty sad shape...

Wait, a secret alliance with the Democrats and their "tax overhaul" ...

Yeah that dumbass better not go to war with my country. With the way the US is doing in Iraq, I'd say we'd give them an ass-whooping.

Really?

EDIT: Has anyone ever asked; if one wants peace, why they endorse violence?

PEACE

Just another word for stockpiling more weapons than everybody else.

From the article originally posted: "Instead of blocking George Bush's new march to war, Sen. Clinton and others are enabling him once again," said one candidate, former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards.

Poor John Edwards. He probably blames the US for every terror attack in the past 50 years. "if only we were nicer to the extremists..."

I think that Hillary 'enabled' him because she is aware that it might have to come down to military options. *maybe* she recognises that you cant trust everything dinnerjacket says!

*maybe* she's got a little bit or realist in her!

War isn't fought for peace. War is fought for economic security. All wars boil down to economics. Doesn't matter whether there were WMDs or if Kuwait was illegally invaded or if Castro is a dictator. The number one reason behind any war or threat of war is the stabalization or protection or acquisition of some economic factor. Freedom is a pleasant ancillary if it can be found.

Uhh, I think you missed his point there. Seems as though the "peaceful" religion seems a little too anxious for killing. On a secondary note, I truly wonder if anybody, lefty or not, actually has read the Iraq War resolution. Seems not. :hmm:
