No, the reason I asked the question is because I do think. If I were to just merely assume, I would take the position that you are.

Cheney receives deferred retirement compensation from Halliburton. He's more then an investor.

Why do you support our being lied into a war? You, sir or madam, are no patriot!

The ultimate enabler the ultimate betrayer Nancy Pelosi hasnt done a thing.


Nancy Pelosi is tailor made for this administration .
Gives a nice looooooooooong speech to her voters than does a 180 as far as voting,etc.

Cheney must adore that sell out .


Perhaps her new fancy plane among other perks are all she truly cares about.

What I would like to see is a direct correlation to the evidence as to the increases in profit for the Bush family and Cheney? Maybe a spreadsheet of earned income directly a result of this action could be useful? Not speculation, but some hard numbers we could crunch to see the results.

You do have something quantifiable right? Anything? Or did I accidentally walk into another one of those arm chair haven't a clue threads? I have a bad habit of that. Oh, and please, no slippery slope relations, I think we have enough logical fallacies walking around here.

You do recall this dont you-
"Paul Wolfowitz say that Iraqi oil would pay for the reconstruction "

The administration said over and over Iraqi oil would pay for it all .

They forgot to mention the first trillion or two .
I have the feeling Iraqis wont ever pay a penny .

Maybe because we were not "lied into" a war?
