   Do we act as the voters of Spain and give in to the demands of the murdering terrorists?

We should definitely act as the voters of Spain! Let’s all vote to remove our deceitful, immoral, imperialistic, war-mongering administration from office.

And replace him with peace loving Kerry? Let me see here is a quote by John Heinz Kerry about Iraq back in 1998

“I am personally prepared, if that’s what it meant. I don’t think you have to start there. I think there are a number of other options. But what I hear from the administration, thus far, is if he doesn’t comply, then we will hit him. The obvious question is, after you’ve hit him, have you opened up your inspections? Well, I think the answer is probably not, certainly not in the near term. After you’ve hit him, is he still in power, capable of building weapons again? Every bit of intelligence John and I have says within various periods of time, he can rebuild both chemical and biological. And every indication is, because of his deception and duplicity in the past, he will seek to do that. So we will not eliminate the problem for ourselves or for the rest of the world with a bombing attack.”

The John he is referring to is fellow senator John McCain, but here he states clearly his belief that Iraq had and could easily rebulid WMD. Was he lying? How many innocents were killed in the bombing raids of 1998, supported by Kerry? I personally supported Clinton’s actions in 1998, I just wished he had acted with the intention of finishing the job, not just kicking the hornets nest.

Why is Bush called a liar while Clinton, Gore, and Kerry get a pass?

  
   Or do we stand resolute, committed to completing the task we set out to accomplish just over a year ago?

If I understand Dubya’s agenda, he’ll be evacuating on June 30th out of fear. Granted, troops will remain in Iraq, but the withdrawal-at-all-costs is a cowardly tactic to protect Dubya’s re-election campaign at the expense of innocent Iraqis and Americans.

I sincerely hope that when the pull out date arrives that the UN will look past it’s partisan dislike of conservatives in America and pitches in to help stabalize the area. If not Iraq may end up a stone age hell hole like many of its neighbors. It would be nice to see Iraq finally enter the 19th century, the 21st may be a little too much to ask at this juncture.
