Does anyone have anything that proves the insurgents are not mostly Iraqi? |

I did not say my editorializing provided proof of the majority just reason to question your source (while Americans and Englishman helped even the French resistance was led by a Frenchman)

Al-Jazeera even reports it!

| Re: Vote on "Immediate withdrawal of troops from Iraq" - 3 yea ??? WTF ??? back to the original vote.
Dem rep from PA wanted to withdraw 'Immediately'. They wanted to vote on this resolution. With lack of support, they ammended this resolution with the timeline/statement 'as soon as its possible'. Uhhhhh, last time I checked, we ALL want to be out as soon as its possible! Seeing this as a political tactic to gain democratic 'votes' to go on record that they said 'yeah, in late 2005 I voted for us to get out as soon as possible!", house republicans called for an up or down vote to get everyone on record, right then, right there on whether they wanted to really get out of Iraq 'immediately', well, as sheep pointed out, 3 voted for it...
3. Because no one REALLY wants us to leave right now. No one, well, '3' do... To vote on a resolution like that would purely be political because of the amendment stating "as soon as possible" to the original resolution of "get out of iraq immeidately..."
Classic and text book backfire... When the politics of politics just go wrong... |

Sort of like Bush asking for support to invade Iraq to save the World from WMDs, then when everyone has voted patriotically they find out Bush's evidence was falsified and they tried to get back out. Too late buddy, you're now a flip flopper even though you voted with bad information (lies). It just doesn't matter that you would have voted this way knowing all the evidence was bull ****, you're on record for voting for war. Sick politics.  |

You know, something that was known to be false but represented as fact?
And what B.S. evidence? The same evidence that they ALL had access to, as well as the background of that evidence? The evidence that was the exact same, actually much of it from the previous administration? The evidence much of which was from foreign sources, including the U.N.'s own gathered evidence?
You know, the same evidence that multiple commissions have gone through and shown the polar opposite of your extremist garbage? |

The supposed material that was confiscated was analyzed by experts. This material was said to have been ordered by Saddam in his effort to create a nuclear missile, well that's what Bush, Cheney, Wolfiwitz wanted everyone to believe.
The experts all concluded that this "tube's" material makeup could NOT support nuclear use. It was more than likely going to be used a short range missle. These experts passed on their conclusions to the Administration and were shocked when their results were read ass-backwards in front of the United Nations (Powell). Apparently their original conclusion was so obvious that other world experts immediately questioned the report that was material could in fact support a nuclear weapon. The original experts were interviewed (once) and I listened to them and the world experts all state that the evidence presented by Powell (on behalf of Bush/Cheney) to the UN & the World was falsified, a complete contradicting reversal of what the experts submitted.
We can go on and on with the satellie photos supposedly indentifying chemical warfare transport vehicles that were actually water trucks, or the hundreds of bio-chemical manufacturing "blurs" on satellite that apparently disappeared upon our invasion. Tricky bastards those Iraqis, making all those factories disappear so quickly under our noses (satellite surveillance).
Now you can say they (Bush, Cheney, and Wolfy) had bad intel or there must have been some "miscommunications", but I saw that interview and listened to those men who in no misleading comments, stated "that was not the conclusions we gave the President, we stand by our reports that the material could not be nuclear capable what so ever, period!" Not their actual quote, but you get the drift.
I will never understand how you people or so disbelieving, it's freaking documented that Cheney & Wolfy had already planned to invade Iraq and start their Middle East Democracy Pilot program years before 911. And this is fact as well, if not for Powell, Bush would have attacked Iraq the day following 911, even though they knew Saddam had nothing to do with the attack. Powell asked for a private meeting with the President (no Cheney, no Wolfy), and he talked Bush into at least waiting for UN Support and outlining their reasons for invading a country that had nothing to do with the 911 terrorist attack. And he warned Bush about the mess of occupying Iraq after the invasion (one of his reasons of not following through on the original gulf war).
Yep, discredit everything I've read and seen as conspiracy, yet all your Republican smoke screening is 100% legit.
How many times did Bush change the "objective" name for the Iraq invasion and occupation? |

More left wing smoke and mirrors, not answering a question.
That was intel all members of Congress had access to, and originated prior to Bush taking office.
Go back to your talking points memo for the day and try again. |

The lie is that your President stated in his State of the Union Address, that Saddam must be taken out because we confiscated "nuclear capable" weapons and Saddam was building this device to destroy America!!@!@! Where is the lie?
THERE NEVER WAS NUCLEAR CAPABLE MATERIAL |

Oh, and for your last line? That itself is a lie. YOU are a liar. YOU have lied about Iraq and Nuclear capable materials confiscated inside Iraq.
How does that make you feel, liar?
We confiscated 500 tons - yeah TONS - one million pounds - of yellowcake uranium from Saddam's nuclear weapons facility. Nuclear material, could be immediately used in a "dirty bomb", and when enriched makes atomic weapons.
Of that 1.8 tons were already partially enriched. Nuclear material, another step towards an atomic weapon.
And what of the centrifuge parts and blueprints buried in one of Saddam's nuclear weapons scientists' flower bed?
Try again. No lie there, not on any level.
Well, except yours. |
