Something Political

So I was snooping around on Brad Froehle's website and I came across this:

“We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories.”(May 29, 2003)

“I recognize we didn’t find the stockpiles [of weapons] we all thought were there.” (Sept. 9, 2004)

President Bush

I totally agree with Brad. I'd rather have a President who isn't as steadfast with his opinions. Either Bush is being told what to say, or he isn't thinking on his own. Wait...nevermind, it must be both. I don't understand how someone can say such things. He's deliberately lying to the American public just to justify the attack (I just needed to say that, I know it's obvious). But some people don't see this!

I know Iraq wasn't the best place to live. Saddam was not a popular ruler in my mind. However, it's not the United States job to police the world. I really want to pull every single troop back into the country. Perhaps this is an isolationist movement. I know a lot of our troops are still needed and we can't necessarily bring them out at an instant. But, why do we have a military presence in areas anyways? I look at other countries, France, Germany, Sweden, etc. are not deploying their troops to fight battles in other countries. It's not their job to police the world. It shouldn't be ours either.

The instances of natural disasters is another thing. I fully support our efforts to help with those.

I totally agree Joe. I like Kerry's stance that we'll go to war/invade another country only as a last resort. Not to mention that he's of the viewpoint that it's a lot better to try to find some allies in the whole venture (or at least explain to the world why you're doing it). Needless to say, I think that Bush failed in this regarding the Iraqi war.

We rushed to a war that wasn't right. And Bush really failed to tell us all why.
