Listen

I know that Saddam signed that treaty. I also know that there was a specific manner in which we were supposed to go about dealing with possible violations of that treaty. I know this is going to be hard for you, but try... just try to think. Think back to when this all started. What was going on?

Bush Senior had put checks and balances in place to stop another armed conflict between the U.S. and Iraq. Bush Junior IGNORED everything his father put in place, or walked right over it. Bush used the American people's insecurity about terrorists to justify going after the oil supplies under Iraq.

Now, I know you have no problem with your government slaughtering Iraqi civilians. Clearly, you hate god and have no compassion for your fellow man. What I don't get is why you think that Bush going after Saddam helps you. Yes, you. Specifically.

Bush is going to give a tax cut. What he should do is raise taxes and then use the money to fix certain aspects of this country... which would result in lower taxes. But, I woulnd't expect a spineles "weekend warrior" armchair quarterback like yourself to have the balls to ask a politician to raise your taxes.

Next, Bush hasn't done ANYTHING to make America safe from terrorists. He's passed the Patriot Acts I and II which violate the civil rights that you're too ignorant to realize that you have or rather HAD. He's created a mutual foe for Pan-Arabia and Pan-Islam. Think back (I know... twice) to when we uncovered that tape of Osama Bin Laden preaching support for the Iraqi people... that the people of Iraq should band together and strike back against America.

I have new for you, idiot: that was the single most frightening thing that has happened in this whole conflict.

Osama and Saddam are BITTER enemies. They absolutely despise one another and their corresponding peoples. For Osama to get on Iraqi TV and tell the Iraqi people to be strong against us and for them to LISTEN is the single most idiotic thing the Bush administration is responsible for.

When your father, someone who is not a C student and a former director of the CIA and the current CIA director tell you, "Don't mess with Iraq" and you do it anyway... well, that's pretty fucking dumb.

You should be able to relate well.
