Talk about back peddling

Uh, newsflash for you: Saddam was an enemy of al Qaeda, so in that very narrow sense we deposed an ally to our cause with NO benefit to the US.

that doesn't change the FACT that we attacked Al Quada first. I noticed that you convienently left that out of your previous post.
And, we all know that Saddam Hussein was a bad man. Just because Al Quada were the ones who attacked us does not change that.

Yeah, but Al Qaeda was CIA.

And, CIA is the Federal Reserve Bank.

Petro euros.

It makes sense.

It's not hypocrisy. Bush thinks we should defend ourselves and fight the terrorists. Obama wants to negotiate with terrorists. If Bush were still in the WH Iran would NOT be this far along with their nuclear program

Saddam Hussein was a bad man?

So?

The leader of North Korea is a 'bad' man

The leader of Iran is a 'bad' man

The leader of Belarus is a 'bad' man

The leaders of several Fill-In-The-Blank-O-Stans are 'bad' men

Should we invade/occupy them all?

NONE of that changes the FACT that al Qaeda became our primary threat on 9/11 and much time/focus was expended on Iraq which did nothing to further the cause against al Qaeda mor to better America's position.

You obviously have forgotten history. If you had asked people on sep 10, 2001 who was the #1 most dangerous threat to America. Most epople would have said Saddam. We had already attacked him in 1991. he had continued to defy the US, and the UN. He was calling our bluff. you act like Saddam was no problem

BULL!

You've alleged Obama is a Muslim sympathizer while Bush is the one who led us to war fighting for the Muslim people of Iraq.

IF you're now alleging Obama sympathizes with Muslim terrorists it's time you supply something more than your own otherwise baseless, inane allegation.

What kind of problem, and to whom, was Saddam?

I'm saying that Bush was tough on terror, and obaa is a wimp. terrorists can plot, plan, & attack us much easier with Obama in the WH.
Again, I ask you to listen to what Obama said at his WH Ramadan dinner.
