I would vote for Weebles! But then I'd just be joing the angry mob who continue to cry for change....any change, not intelligent change. Certainly not any kind of change that would require a personal investment beyond daily blogs about the local public servants. Just enough change so there would be someone new to blame for all the new changes around here. Weebles looks highly intelligent and far more competent than the angry mob. Does Weebles have any experience in public administration? posted by

I don't have any public administration experience, but I've got a wealth of experience in estate administration. My servant-mom has an extra pillow on the bed, above her head, just for me to sleep on at night. My servant-dad makes sure my bathroom is spotless, and they both make sure I get lots of good food. That couldn't have all happened by accident, so it must be a sign of my fitness for leadership >^..^<

Yeah---I think EVERYONE deserves quality health care. Are you under the impression that you aren't already paying for health care for those who don't have insurance? And my head is definitely not in the sand, which is why it's so easy to see that Emperor Bush wears no clothes when it comes to his foreign policy. We were not attacked by Iraq on 9/11, and if that's what you're still thinking it might be time to turn the dial away from Faux News for a few days. posted by

WOW! Is this Tehachapi or the bay area? If you have something to say, say it. Why hide your identity and say it. Stan and the angry mob don't hind behind private profiles or profiles with no info. Yes Iraq didn't have WMD or did they do 9/11, but they do kill and torture. They also support terrorism so I for one am glade we went there. I also want to see the troops come home, as soon as possible! beenthere is it intelligent to stay with what we have or try something new? What we have is killing this town!

I think the polls are asking if we need an exit strategy, NOT if we should have gone to Iraq. I think most Americans feel we needed to go. I also feel most Americans what a way out. That's what the polls are showing. Just because the majority want something does that make it right? I want our guys back, but I don't want to see the same mistake Bush SR. made again. Lets not leave till the job is done. Hey if it takes killing 600,000 to make the world safer if not for us at lest the people of Iraq, then so be it. Saddam killed more Iraqi's then we ever did.

Sparks how did Bush lie? And what do you mean when you say EVERYBODY helped us look for WMD? The UN is the only group that looked and they are far from everybody. Compare that to U.S. intelligence, British intelligence, Russian intelligence, and French intelligence (French and intelligence just don't fit in the same sentence!) all agreed that Iraq had WMD. That's a huge portion of the civilized world! So MOST agreed that Saddam had WMD. He had ties with terrorists. Terrorists want to destroy America. Do the math....the enemy of my enemy is my friend! We had no other choice but to go to war with Iraq. The fact that the intelligence was wrong does not make Bush a liar! If the weather man says it's going to rain and it doesn't, does that make him a liar? Of coarse not! It just means he relied on faulty information to come to a conclusion that in the end turned out to be wrong!

Incompetent? Okay I'll buy that. I just wish people would quit saying Bush lied us into this war...He didn't! And don't think he didn't ask for proof. Nobody would act just on somebody's word. I'm sure he said "show me what you got" weighed that against what the other countries I mentioned were saying and made a decision. Where do you come up with this 600K number of dead? As far as taking troops out of Afghanistan, what's wrong with moving troops from where you can spare them to where they are needed more? The job is still being done in Afghanistan. The only place it has increased terrorism is right there in Iraq. That's the battlefield and that is there tactics! Notice we haven't had any attacks on our soil since 9/11. That's no coincidence. posted by

Bush, chomping on a dinner roll while talking about the Middle East crisis with British Prime Minister Tony Blair at the G8 summit, St. Petersburg, Russia, July 17, 2006 (Watch video clip) President Bush: "Peter. Are you going to ask that question with shades on?"
"After the bombing, most Iraqis saw what the perpetuators of this attack were trying to do." --George W. Bush, on the bombing of the Golden Mosque of Samarra in Iraq, March 13, 2006, Washington, D.C.
AND DOES BUSH LIE?? ROFLMAO..what doesnt he lie about?
A Chart of Bush Lies about Iraq Did George W. Bush Invade Iraq by Lying? Why did Bush start a war that:
Here’s what Bush said: Bush’s Claim Reality "Our intelligence officials estimate that Saddam Hussein had the materials to produce as much as 500 tons of sarin, mustard and VX nerve agent.” State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003 Iraq has 500 tons of chemical weapons: - Sarin gas - Mustard gas - VX Nerve agent Not True Zero Chemical Weapons Found “U.S. intelligence indicates that Saddam Hussein State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003 Iraq has 30,000 weapons capable of dumping chemical weapons on people Not True Zero Munitions Found “We have also discovered through intelligence State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003 Iraq has a growing fleet of planes capable of dispersing chemical weapons almost anywhere in the world Not True Zero Aerial Vehicles Found "Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications and statements by people State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003 Iraq aids and protects terrorists, including members of Al Qaeda And implied that Iraq was somehow behind 9/11 Not True Zero Al Qaeda Connection To date, not a shred of evidence connecting Hussein with Al Qaida or any other known terrorist organizations have been revealed. "Our intelligence sources tell us that he (Saddam) has attempted to purchase high-strength aluminum tubes suitable for nuclear weapons production." State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003 Iraq has attempted to purchase metal tubes suitable for nuclear weapons production Not True The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as well as dozens of leading scientists declared said tubes unsuitable for nuclear weapons production -- months before the war. "Satellite photographs reveal that Iraq is rebuilding facilities at [past nuclear] sites." Bush speech to the nation – 10/7/2002 Iraq is rebuilding nuclear facilities at former sites. Not True Two months of inspections at these former Iraqi nuclear sites found zero evidence of prohibited nuclear activities there IAEA report to UN Security Council – 1/27/2003 "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003 Iraq recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa Not True The documents implied were known at the time by Bush to be forged and not credible. "We know he's been absolutely devoted to trying to acquire nuclear weapons, and we believe he has, in fact, reconstituted nuclear weapons." VP Dick Cheney – “Meet the Press” 3/16/2003 Iraq has Nuclear Weapons for a fact Not True “The IAEA had found no evidence or plausible indication of the revival of a nuclear weapons program in Iraq." IAEA report to UN Security Council – 3/7/2003 "We gave him a chance to allow the inspectors in, and he wouldn't let them in." Bush Press Conference 7/14/2003 Iraq’s Saddam Hussein refused to allow UN inspectors into Iraq Not True UN inspectors went into Iraq to search for possible weapons violations from December 2002 into March 2003 posted by
