And despite popular consensus, we still have a system that can see politicians get elected/voted "out" at least every two years. Cuba only stages "elections"
Bush didn't win in 2000, Bush didn't win in 2004. What makes you believe that our elections aren't anything but staged???
Did a penniless vet who was indicted on some kind of sleazy sex charges and didn't campaign and had no money really win in SC? Do you honestly believe he did?
Our elections are every much the sham as they are in Cuba....just we have a complicit right-wing media that doesn't talk about it.
cannot let this stand -- we are in a generational war against fanatics who intend to kill everyone of us -
>>>with the decision to commit to a strategic blunder undoubtedly cost us ENORMOUS amounts of national prestige, money and most importantly lives<<<
Iraq was a major battlefield in this war -- it brought 10s of thousands of the fanatics into Iraq to do battle with the infidels (the free world/the USA)
they have been killed in vast numbers
we have victory
an Iraq 1 that can defend itself 2 that is a free society 3 - is an ally in the GWOT ====== history will measure bush as one of the great presidents
