You are correct. That's another thing I can add to the list of great
Obama accomplishments.
Yup, it's great that Bush spent 8 years softening them up snerk

Yeah, murdering people. Lots of people. One of Bush's accomplishments in
your mind anyway.

Bush killed at least 100,000 people. He also allowed 3000+ U.S. civilians
to be killed.

And Clinton was killing people in Irag, Bosnia, and allowed Ben Ladin to
walk, so he could plan and train the pilots on his watch. They both suck.
They suck as much as you suck and that is a whole bunch of suck.

I think the Bush Admin. already took care of the heavy lifting...

Yeah, like starting a war to inflame the Islamic world. A war of
choice, a war where 1000s of our men and women died for no reason.

Your doctor didn't keep you safe. It was institutions such as the CDC..
gov't run agencies.
The CDC is an information clearing house and policy producing
organization. The CDC is not on the leading edge of research.



In that case, don't follow their recommendations. Duhh...


Wasn't the CDC involved in the plastic wrap and duct tape reccomendation?



Nope... that was DHS.

Allowed bin Laden to walk? How's that? He tried to get him several times.

I think that when two guys are talking about sucking, it's time to try a
different thread.

Let's hope Obama doesn't break that record but the worst days of the
"good war" are on Obama's watch. I still am not sure why we are there.

I don't have a good feeling about increasing troop strength at this point.
As Obama said (paraphrasing), the generals are thinking about the war, the
president needs to think about the world.

He is talking about when Sudan offered up Bin Laden and Clinton didn't
know what we could charge him with so he didn't act.

Personally I think we should have just sent a team of Africans (with
plausible deniability to the US) in there to shoot him in the head but
I may be too pragmatic.



I recall something like that.. I don't have a big argument against finishing
him off.

The interesting thing to me was said on Anderson Cooper the other
night from Afghanistan. It turns out we don't even think Bin Laden is
there anymore and that the Taliban has absolutely no global
aspirations. Their connection to Al Queda is tenuous at best.



I thought it was pretty clear that bin laden is in Pakistan. He left Tora
Bora, right...

Clinton murdered 1000s of people in Iraq?

Maybe you mean Bosnia?

Saddam said about 20,000 died in the "no fly zone" bombings. We denied
it but we really didn't have any way to prove him wrong. We were
shooting missiles into residential areas to suppress Iraqi radar sites
on a pretty regular basis. I have to believe some people died, even if
it was just radar operators. I understand Saddam put his people at
risk by locating these sites in residential areas but we still shot at
them.
At a certain point you have to admit these were still acts of war.
That is why I say Iraq is an 18 year war, spanning 4 presidents now.
That is the kind of record you expects out of 14th century European
monarchies



I wouldn't believe Saddam on most anything. He actually lied about the WMDs,
I guess mostly to keep the Iranians at bay.
