I should have been more precise, I understand, but basically thats what I ment, ofcourse u heared of iraq/sadam since early 80s, but im saying it grew with bush sr and bush jr, that was my point.

anyways i liked bush in last debate on religion and something else he talked about, there is another thread somewhere started by someone. Id say it swayed my opinion about him.

why do people keep going back and compairing bush to clinton and missing out the one fact we do know about clinton, he knowingly and illegally lied to your entire country and th world about monica.

you may bring up shoddy evidence for war, but whether that was a malicious lie or not is not proven.

ok im getting the feeling i said something, ok i recall a thread in this post that i said in regards to the reasons bush and his allies presented to the rest of the nations to go to war w/iraq. However, WMD's were not the only reason presented, there other reasons with wich i agree with.

bush and allies emphasised on their strongest point to have 'solidarity'(perhaprs not the word im looking for) of other nations, which was WMD's.

that was my initial point, not that to call bush a liar, once again never have.

Re: Senator Kerry in '04!

Did you know that John Kerry voted against sending troops to fight SH during the first Desert War? I guess John Kerry was okay with what was going on in Kuwait.

Liberals always try to make this about a blowjob - and I will grant you that a President using an office intern as his personal sexual toy isn't exactly high on my list of qualifications for the job - but it's always been about perjury.

absolutly agreed here, it is about the crime, (which was never really dealt with imo) and not the act.

further more Bush did not lie, and has been open and honest about the findings of a independent investigation.

the inteligence was found to be defective however at no point did they say it was fabricated.

What a disingenuous site... Who comes up with this tripe? Y'know, Senator Kerry has changed his mind on things that are inarguable. Nothing significant happened between one position and the position he later takes. His infamous "I voted for it before I voted against it" quote is forgivable. The first bill included DNC pork and the second bill didn't, I understand... Politics...

But to take things out of context and to ignore that the world has drastically changed since President Bush took office is just plain stupid. I don't know who runs the American Progress Action, but they're idiots for making this poster and purporting it to be anything other than pure political propaganda...

If you don't follow Congress and how they pass laws, then you wouldn't know that. They're not lying, they're simply leaving out or manipulating the truth. Everything there is factual, it's just not the whole story. It's the classic Moore tactic... And I'm tired of it.

however moore does on occaision (most of the time) add little exadurations of an event that is pure conspiracy and portray it as truth.

and to be honest Eternel i dont think Ciing's argument was at your decision to post this piece. rather the posters author for being a jerk.

I'm serious. I'd like to know exactly what it was that the President said that you think is a lie. I have yet to have someone answer this question after screaming "Bush Lied!!!@!11"

Now, what about the site I posted? Have you taken the time to REALLY look it over, and if so, is it still just a propaganda, mooreish website bent on destroying bush's reputation, OR, might they have some credebility and evidence that maybe bush isn't playing straight with us?
Yes, the President's verbal slips are sometimes hilarious. I don't think that should have much of an impact on how anyone votes, though...

I REALLY looked over the page that you posted, and it's a bunch of crap. After reading through that, I did not go to any other pages on that site.
