ok2bclever said:tie, you always ask stupid simplistic questions where you establish parameters you want and then declare yourself the winner.
I know I'm so freaking stupid. I ask stupid simplistic questions that you can't answer. Hmmmmm if my question is stupid and you can't answer it what I wonder does that make you?
Seems like you are a little behind your normal pattern as you have started quoting yourself before calling yourself the undisputed champ like normal.
I'm really not interested in being the champ. It appears you are again tap dancing to avoid answering this simple stupid question
The estimate is perhaps as many as 300,000 dead Iraqi blamed on Saddaam over his entire reign.
Even your sister agreed the total was estimated as high as a million.
We invaded already, so the answer must be a third of a million.
that your final answer how many was it in bosnia?
No wait, bush lied with the boogie man WMD excuse to get us to jump on Saddaam.
Must be a heck of a lie. Saddam did use WMD's on the Kurds. Or do we ignore that happened?
The estimate for children that died in Iraq from the sanctions imposed through the UN was 500,000.
Ah a little misinformation here my friend I like that. You are a sneaky bugger. The estimate was 500,000 children because saddam starved those 500,000 children.
So it appears sanctions against Saddaam killed considerably more than Saddaam himself did.
Tsk , Tsk. ballot stuffer now you're spreading your dishonesty to this issue.
Guess we need to invade before sanctions are imposed.
Not a bad idea , Maybe before the guy violates all those other worthless sanctions.
Oh man, that is going to add a bunch of countries immediately.
using your logic yes.
You want to make invasion by the number of dead, by inhumane treatment of citizens?
I'll make it easy . How about countries that have used wmds to kill 100,000 of their own citizens.
Then we should invade China, Russia, Africa, etc.
Nope not on the list.
Typical little tin god, always gung ho for sacrificing our young in meat grinders around the world, but never dirtying your own hands.
Tin god . nice very nice.
I think someone with such a brave mouth as yourself should pick a number, pick a country, shut your mouth, hitch a ride across the ocean and put your own lazy ess on the line instead of our valuable youth.
Whats a lazy Ess. Is that a dude ranch? I don't own a dude ranch.
As far as the military service been there , done that. Airborne Medic.

ok2bclever said:wkmac,
bush is in campaign mode currently trying to raise his low national public esteem.
bush is only admitting that he has broad shoulders and the buck stops here (several years late) regarding the faulty intel.
He isn't admitting that the bush team spun/filtered the intelligence to favor the invasion.
I call that lying, but I guess a politician might define it as positioning for effect or some such.
Yes and to continue to make this assinine point you have to continue to make the point that congress was either also lying or that congress was easily duped into believing this lie which means they chose to ignore their own intelligence sources that come straight to them with no presidential editing applied. Could you be so kind as to clarify your position in this regard?
"tie, feel free to answer any stupid questions you come up with."
Its clear you're too stupid to be able to do so
The answers are likely to be worth as much as your questions.
worth much more than your constant crying when I easily trump your ill thought wisdom.
I already answered you that I don't believe the USA should have a policy of invasion set by a number of dead in another country, but feel free to continue to ignore it when you don't get the answer you wanted.
Yes and this is to be expected. You will dodge the number issue as a dodge to answering a fundamental question. How much brutality , how many WMD's does hussien have to use how much before you feel the cause is justified?
"You like to try to set up the "By the way have you stopped beating your wife and children, Yes or No?" type of questions."
No That issue has not been raised. Another tap dance on your part.
And I know how frustrated you get when your set up questions fail.
No I really don't expect you to answer any of the tough questions. The liberal tends to be critical of us policy without offering any viable solutions. The liberal would never take a stance on principle other than to take no stance at all. That one principle is near and dear to the liberals heart.
I do believe in using invasion of a country to stop an imminent WMD attack on our country.
Ok . A little progress. So if the nukes are locked and cocked and pointed at Detroit michigan and Habib is lighting the fuse then it may be time to start mobilizing a defense. Anything short of that would not. A physical demonstration showing a leader has the WMD's and likes to use them is not a factor in that decision?
ok2bclever said:I really wish you would learn to use the quote system right.
As often as you quote yourself you would think you would get it down, but no, you keep screwing it up.
It makes me wish I had never taught you to try to use the enhanced mode.
Notice the pattern. First he starts with some filler and to fire a few shots at me.
You do give new meaning to "he loves to hear himself talk" with the frequency you quote yourself.
I saw where you quoted yourself back to back in another thread.
If you would learn to spell and use the correct tense for the situation it would make you sound more intelligent than you are and you could use all the illusion you can manage.
Then some more.
You call me stupid and we both know that if I challenged you to a battle of wits or whit you would misspell both, even after looking them up in the dictionary to figure out the difference.
Then an accusation where he whines about me calling him stupid and totally ignores that he took us down this road by using the word first.
I bet you were a boor as a child too.
Some more filler. Uses the word boor to show what a distinguished gentlemen he is.
I do not believe it is bush's job to invade every country that mistreats it's people, let alone the one's whose scum leader called his daddy a bad name.
The world is too big and the USA has too few people to be able to become the world wide dictator or empire to run the world.
And then finally a post where he starts to get on subject.
Bush Sr realized this, alas, if only his son was more like the father.
Who says the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.You ignored my question on why the US waited for over two decades if the reason bush invaded Iraq was for alleged use of WMD on their own people.
Now after all this postering on his part he now gets to a pont where he proves he did not read and comprehend my point. In this case he is acting as if he thinks I said the reason we went into Iraq was because Saddam used WMD's two decades ago. In fact he made the point that Saddam had no WMD's and that we manufactored possession of WMD's as a reason for invading Iraq. My point in rebuttal has been that we did not manufactor this reason since Saddam has already proven possession of WMD's and a willingness to use these weapons as demonstrated against the Kurds. I also highlighted the point that congress had access to the same intelligence from thier own sources that was not edited or tampered with by the president and that they congress came to the same conclusion.
Since we know Saddam has them, has used them and we now have new intelligence that told us he had them still in violation of UN Sanctions then the question is how do we respond. Do we wait until they are loaded and pointed at us and about to be fired before we react or do we recognize another another violation of un sanctions and go in now which we did.
Of course, that was your runner up reason after you finally gave up on anyone believing you about the imminent WMDs Iraq didn't have aimed at us.Heck, you stuck with that longer than bush. So why are you stating something that happened over two decades ago is the reason bush invaded Iraq?
And again he shows he did not pay attention and has now run completely off track.
Why weren't you pushing for this invasion back then?
Got it, you would have been liable for military duty at that time.
In fact I was aware of the using of WMD's on kurds at the time and I was for our stepping in at the time. And yes I knew any conflict could drag me back into the military at the time. I hope that does not throw off your cheap attempt to now try to paint me as some kind of coward.
Look Okie Dokie. If you and your flaming liberal sister want to question my intelligence or whatever trait of mine you think needs attacking at the time feel free. But concede the point that I served my country and that being assigned to an airborne unit as part of the then rapid deployment force that I fully understood my risks and liabilities in the combat theator. I'm not a hero. But I put my but on the line and I fully understood the possible consequences of doing so. For you to try to throw that into this discussion is a very low blow even for you. Really dissapointing in fact. I have been very animated in making the points I make but I have never dropped down to such a dismally disgusting level as you just tried to take me.
What was the matter, didn't think you could get one of those nifty bush buddy deferrals?
And here you again make assumptions about my background and character in what appears to be another attempt to paint me as some type of coward. In fact I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth. My parents were dirt poor when they grew up. I served my country and did so proudly. See if you can lift this discussion up a little before you completely fall into the sewer you are presently headed for. I don't expect you to kiss my ass for serving my country but respecting the service and leaving the issue alone should be the least you can do.
You are dense.
Thats a little better than being a coward , I guess.
I realize it doesn't matter how many times I state the bush team filtered the data they used in their PR invasion presentations as you do not want to hear it. . .
And then the point about why you fail to understand congress can get thier own intelligence and does not need to rely on anything the president feeds them. Congress has an intelligence oversight committee that is very capable when it comes to analyzing information.
