Lincoln Chafee was the only Republican in the Senate to vote against authorization of the use of force in Iraq. His reward for being right was to get himself run out of the Republican party and elected office.

Republicans fell in line like always - and with a press that was a full out cheerleader for the war - most Democrats were too fearful of hurting themselves politically to oppose.

and therein lies the rub. these folks are up their to do the right thing for us, not what will get them re-elected. the dems who voted, the reps who voted, all share equal blame. i don't care why they voted for it, they voted for it-whether falling in line, or afraid of losing votes-they voted for it.
bush may have asked for the vote, congress gave it to him. checks and balances didn't work, which is the reason for both of them to exist, to keep the other in line.

so, people blame a republican-led congress for allowing a republican president free rein. do we REALLY want a democratic congress and president?? do the checks/balances work better when it's not all one party? i've seen some that think it does, and others who don't. thoughts?

What did you want him to do about it .... declare war on Spain?

Why don't you try and pin Columbine on him while you're at it.

They weren't terrorist attacks sir.
Clinton had all the intel on Al-Qaida, and he didn't do anything because he thought they were harmless.

Seperate Issue.
Hundreds of Thousands have died over in Iraq?

i didn't say it did. i said there is sexism, and when you said you treat your wife/dauughter better than many other places, seems to me you're in agreement that in other places women get bad treatment, right?

Strange how the 3% of gays can wag the entire population,huh?
What the gays do isn't my concern,as long as they aren't legislated into benefits and put more of a burden on a system wilting as we speak. The whole gist of your post is the typical POV victim BS that says the Govt is responsible to take care of us. When that happens they also put their hands in your life. Great choice. And I don't remember calling you any specific name. But feel free to be insulted
btw...I'm pretty sure that the mods ruled that you can't use someones' post repeatedly in your posts, not that what I said doesn't stand on its own merit!

um

what?!

Honestly, the republican view of homosexuality is cruel, wrong and sets us and our country back compared most other "western" countries.

John McCain, thank God, isnt bad with his opinion of this subject, sarah palin can kiss my white lesbo ass though about this.

Whether gay "marriage" is ever legal or not, I really could care less. The whole sanctity of marriage crap the repubs pull is laughable, considering Most people who get "married" arent even religious and the fact that more marraiges end in divorce than actually make it. Way to keep up that sanctity of marriage! But gays need to be provided the same basic human rights that straight people have.

i agree with you 100%. all created equal-that's what we're supposed to stand for.

Keep telling yourself that...

If you do often enough you might trick yourself into believing it.

CAN WE GET SOME PHOTOS OR SOMETHING ABOUT THIS? Really,I am serious. If there were WMD moved to another country,then I would like some more proof of it than just saying it. This WMD sell job was the reason he got DEMS to vote to go invade. So, if they actually had WMD( when GEEDUBBYA was selling they had WMD,) I'd like to actually see them some day(or see them being moved around in Syria etc.)

of course not.

the intel was wrong. everyone knows it. the administration doesn't even argue the point anymore.

WMD's moved?

There is on evidence of that whatsoever...
There were no WMD's as defined by the Bush Adm.

Book title is "Disinformation" by Robert Miniter,I think, just one of several out there,not including published reports from Russian and Israeli Intelligence. Sheesh ...you think you'd want to back up your ideas with facts,rather than assumptions. Not just you,P, but others who're so willing to believe the mantra put out by the Left.
And no,Scuds, they don't have film at 11 for you on the movement of WMDs

I guess I can't call myself a true Republican even though I am voting Republican (I'm more an Independent), but I understand her, support her and wouldn't ever want to change her. Don't slap labels on people ... it's not very becoming.

Reading is fundamental. No one said that EVERY republican feels that way. But the party as a whole?

Ask your night school teacher.
