(I assume the IM refers exclusively to the Iraq war, and not the Afghanistan war, right?) - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:26 13
- I have no issue with Afghanistan, we've been there forever. He lied about WMD, he invaded Iraq before he had UN approval. - Andie Mar 10, 10:28 11

    - 2002? since we are quoting private citizens, let me quote my favorite one - crash davis Mar 10, 10:40
    - Al Gore didn't 'shock and awe.' -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:39 2
      - I'm just saying, it's not like Bush made up the stories about WMDs himself, as you imply. - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:45 1
        
        I think it's fair to say that Cheney was the evil one. (The cafe press ad being shown right now is priceless) - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:50

- i went to the US when Bush was in power ... it was scaaaaaary ... - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:32 3
  - When I drove through Canada in 2004, your security pissed me off. - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:34 2
    - are you allowed to ship guns (via fedex or whatever) across state lines? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 10:36 1
      - Yes, but the recipient has to have a federal firearms license. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:38
- Really! I've heard horror stories about people visiting the U.S. and never getting out. -- nm - CrankYanker Mar 10, 10:28
- i'm not saying i regret going, i'm just saying, if you are going to boycott other countries based on their leadership.... -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:27 5
  - Oh I get your point. And overall, it's a good one. - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:32 4
    - in your opinion. i'd like to compare civiilian casualties in Iraq vs Cuba. -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:34 3
      - Not differing enough to justify the difference between "we're cool" and "pure evil". - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 10:43 2
        
        but, i don't think *americans* are pure evil, see? -- nm - Andie Mar 10, 10:52 1
        
        I'm not taking it personally. :) -- nm - Dr.Vermin Mar 10, 11:03
