1. Every bomb dropped on Baghdad, all the cluster bombs that
found their way into the hands of children, the napalm that was used in Basra and Fallujah, the hundreds of thousands of rounds of depleted uranium shells, the tank rounds, the bunker busters and daisy cutters were all stamped with a U.S.A. on them. Beat that.

6. Check out the Chimp's quote on that page!
“We will stay on the offense
against these people.
They’re terrorists and
they’re killers and they will
kill innocent people . . . so
they can impose their dark
vision on the world.”
PRESIDENT BUSH


Uh, do you think maybe he's "projecting"?

3. This is so stupid and offensive!


"Here's A Ramadan Present" :eyes:

That bomb probably found it's way into an innocent family's home

4. Bush is going to war, again!
I'm tellin' ya!

Bush is going to provoke some kind of incident that he will exploit to launch a 'preemptive' attack on Iran.

He's got to do it in such a way so that it's an 'emergency' -- because he knows he cannot go to Congress this time.

Watch the polls. If Bush sinks into the 30s on approval, that will mean the war is close at hand.

That's my prediction.

5. I agree.
This falls under the category of "just crazy enough to work."

7. precisely the case
And the fact that the NYT is spewing this spin, almost word for word as fed it by the Rumsfeld DOD, is even worse.

Where are the journalistic standards that NYT used to be known for? OK, OK, Judith Miller, Elisabeth Bumiller, Jason whatshisface, you wonder who else is lowering the standards to quickly?
