What was that about? It isn't that serious! In that case why is there any question or conversation on city data?

I do think it was kinda strange but oddly satisfying how his head popped off when they hung him though.
There alot of people like yourself, sad but true! Once i saw a kid hang a cat strange right?

Maybe you haven't read all the posts. The OP asked why we went to Iraq. Do you really think he is seaking info or just stirring the s..t?

There ia ample info to be had just by doing a little research.

He, like you, have an ax to grind. Did you and he watch the video posted on Clinton's speach? Did you and he read the order Bush signed detailing WHY we were going into Iraq? How many time have we posted the quotes from Clinton and othe democrats long before Bush was elected?

He and you wil never accept any of the info given. Your hatred has you blinded to the truth.

Have a good day.

Sir why didn't Bush go after Kim in North Korea?

Why don't some people ever stop to think about the real reasons that America is hated so intensely in the Middle East.
Because sometime your leader or Ruler can warrant hate ala the World trade Center attack when Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. was president!

Geez, according to you libbies, we are already the evil oppressor by having economic sanctions against Cuba which therefore keeps them all in poverty. But I am wondering what UN sanctions Cuba has violated that made you ask that question?
