nlightn, you're right his comparison is phony and meant to distract from the facts. a better comparison to the disaster we are observing in iraq would be to say doesnt yelling fire in a crowded theatre and then watching as people are stampeded to death and acquire significant injuries bother you? and all because of a lie. sort of like the implied claims that iraq was connected to al qaida and had weapons of mass destruction so we have to invade and disarm them only to find out it was all based on lies and cherry picked intelligence and meant to further a goal of controlling their oil fields and having a permanent american footprint in the middle east. to make this comparison event even more juicy we would later find out that the person who yelled fire represented the hospital industry as the local hospitals needed to pump up their revenues to meet shareholder performance expectations. in the case of reality, the people who yelled wmd and al qaida has ties to iraq, all had ties to the military industrial war complex. my comparison is just as much a stretch as his but at least its a more reflective analogy.

nlightn... well asshole, Peg was making
a big deal about the 3000+ American deaths in Iraq since 2003. There's been 200,000 deaths here in this country just in traffic accidents since then. I wonder how many homicides?

The President didn't lie about anything. 3000 Americans were killed by radical Muslims on 9/11 who have been attacking us since 1979 and HE finally responded. Unlike previous Presidents both Republican and Democrat.

You are the one that doesn't get it! The Muslim terrorists want to kill you and all non-Muslims throughout the world. I think we should do something about that. At the very least protect our own country. IMO

nlightn... The president didn't lie about
anything concerning the war. If you are really worried about American lives lost why doesn't it concern you that over a quarter of a million Americans have died in traffic accidents in the same time period only a little over 3,000 have died in combat. Obviously your agenda isn't concern for American lives.
