    although he is better than shrillary, he's still not a true conserv....besides, Kennedy was the last senator to get elected president (and only the 2nd)...odds are already against him...

    The fact the original poster probably wants to deny is that this war was started by mistake. Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed because of a mistake.

    The people that sold this war to Americans should be ashamed because their actions have wasted many lives. The words are harsh because the situation deems it necessary.

    You can post threads about Obama's words or you can post threads about how America was fooled into starting a mistaken war.

    I am the original poster...and yes, I will not say this war is a mistake....I still want to know the actual evidence about "hundreds of thousands of people"...since it seems every anti-american in this forum quotes that, but no evidence is ever produced...

    That's because they don't care about facts or have integrity. They place no value on either. Lack of home training.

    I believe he's a fan of George Galloway, which use the "hundreds of {insert whatever}" quote quite often when talking about Iraq. It would be more interesting if he was more specific.

    Whether its 60,000 or 500,000, why does it matter to you?

    My point remains that they were killed by mistake. oops!

    Some people value honesty and integrity. Others sell it out and give it away for virtually nothing.

    now we are the reason that the war is not going well you are coming unglued
    no matter what you say this is the end of republicans for many years to come and you can thank bush for that.
    pat Buchanan just explained this waste issue the best
    he said something to this effect
    obama thinks that the troop lost their life because of an unnecessary war
    and mccain thinks that the troops lost their lives unnecessarily because of the mistakes made in the conduct of the war
    although both are right the word waste is an unfortunate choice
    i think the majority of people can agree on this

    I can't believe some people who post bunch of BS and personal attacks. This forum is full of wackos who HATE Bush and who HATE Muslims. "THINK, THEREFORE, I AM." You are either conditioned at home by parents, or by the media. You are no different from Jew hating HITLER who conditioned the whole country to hate jews. I am not even half of the age of GTech, I just can't believe people acting like this. Just take out all the hatred and do a pure simple reasoning.

    P.S: I am not a jew or a Muslim. I have lot of jews and arabs friends. "When it comes to money, everybody is on the same religion." Voltaire. Least of my concern is, what happens in Middle East. War on Terror and all this, just step back and take a long term view. Americans future may be War on Terror, but rest of the WORLD moves on. I maybe American citizen by birth, but grew up in 2 different country other end of the world. For me, it doesn't matter what happens, I am a CAPITALIST. And my girl friend (she is HOT :D ), she grew up in America. Every time she come with me to places I grew up, let just say we get along VERY GOOD.

    We're not "one of them", we're BOTH... Thank you for pointing that out.

    You on the other hand are neither.
