Bite me. Half my friends were within a block of that blast. Luckily, they all made it out. Go ahead, take the cheap one and reply "All three of them?' Thats usually what you offer in the absence of solid facts.

One, I wasn't talking to you, ass. I was talking to Don't Call Me Asshat, with his moronic statements about the Islamists not posing a threat.
Two, I am grateful your friends got out. I'm willing to bet they feel a bit more like me on the topics of terror than you do.
Three, who the fuck are you kidding. You don't even have 3 friends.

All the shiite you offered as proof of Hussein's danger is actually sad proof of his cagedness and impotence. You wouldn't really offer that shit in court, would you?
Pretext, through and through. Iraq was the easy war against the enemy we could beat and had a basis to go after. Problem was, the basis wasn't strong enough, so your boy dummied a thicker pretext. He made a villian out of a tin pot dictator who didn't have a fucking missile that could fly further than the far border of Syria. WMD my ass.

The peaceniks and pundits all said "we" needed to go to the "world" AND the UN to get permission to depose Saddam. So we did. The Administration, knowing fully well that there were multiple justifications to depose this bloodthirsty tyrant, went with the one rationale that universally agreed upon by Clinton, Albright, Blair, Chirac, Annan, the CIA, the FBI and the UN to be true.
I pointed out several other secondary pretexts - all true - that you somehow find irrelevant.

The funniest thing about your absurd argument is that you cite Hussein's violations of UN resolutions as a basis. Gotta love GOP Chickenhawks. The UN isn't worth listening to, and it should be disbanded... but they've all got ten foot hard ons for Hussein when he violates its edicts. You're all fucking comedy.

If no one was going to bother enforcing the UN Resolutions, then what the fuck is the point of the institution (other than wasting valuable real estate on the East Side). If anything, the Bush Administration and the Coalition of the Willing gave that sackless institution some teeth.
BTW - if the GOP are chickenhawks, what are the Democrats? Appeasement Dodos? Do-nothing Ostriches?
