Bascailly the Tea party is just a movement on governamnt spending and its creating a 49% dependent class that consumes and creates no wealth in the country in return. Its resulted in too many dependent on too few.

Actually Clinton was just posturing to improve his public image after the Lewinsky controversy.... I'd rather the President get blown in the oval office... then put our country into war debt for the British Bankers...

Do you have even the slightest tendril of an idea how stupid your statement is - how devoid of meaning, fact and connection with reality it is?

No, I suppose you don't

Ummm,yes we were.

At the end of GWI,there was a ceasefire agreement with certain terms and conditions,a ceasefire is exactly what it sounds like,a ceasing of actual firing,but NOT peace.

Same goes for Korea,we are technically in a ceasefire agreement with North Korea,we are not at peace with that nation.

Really,this is simple history.

Both sides have benefited from the Wars...... John Kerry's wife is making millions supplying drinks etc to the troops with her inherited multi million Heinz Companies.

The motivation was exactly the same. Iraq's WMDs.

As to who "lied" about Iraq's WMDs... If you still insist it was a lie, then clearly the timeline shows the liars were Clinton, the rest of the Dems, the UN, foreign governments' intel, the CIA, and the FBI.

Are you libs just given a flow chart of canned propaganda responses you must use or something? You're utterly failing to use logic and/or critical thinking.
