knock,knock! is saddam in there? BOOM! BANG! CRASH! DUCK!
i wonder how many Innocent iraqis have been slaughtered just in the so called hunt for saddam? i wonder how this is supposed to endear us to the citizenry, bursting into their homes at 4 a.m. and shooting, and exploding women and children? how is this justified?
how is this within the realm of descent behavior for the military?
how do they really expect to find him in this way? it sounds as if they are literally going door to door and killing anyone who moves.

all this after saying the man was irrelevant now. if he's so god damned irrelevant, why are we slaughtering people randomly to find him? this is terrorism, plain and simple.

1. no more "iron-fisted" methods says the U.S.
I believe the U.S. has recruited Ed McMahon to go door to door with a giant check, in the amount of $25 million,in an attempt to employ a more kindler, gentler method of ratting out Saddam.

2. Okay, MoPaul......I gotta say something about that Bush pic........
Edited on Thu Aug-07-03 09:06 AM by DagmarK
Bush with tears...

Now, I don't know if that is a pic of Bush actually crying or if the tears were photoshopped into it....... But........showing BUSH in a light that indicates that he has any human emotion is:

a. deceptive (b/c Bush doesn't have human emotions; and

b. not helpful to the cause......(b/c the biggest prob with the guy is that he IS one-dimensional and unfeeling and unthinking (or rather, a president who may as well just be a cardboard cutout).

I LOVE your pic stuff.......but I gotta say that this pic of Bush really throws me........... I mean...have you ever seen a pic of Hitler CRYING??? Seems like it doesn't help the cause to depict Bush as someone who CARES about anything (even with the joke taht you provide.....cause the joke gets lost in the tears).

Strictly personal opinion here..................

4. he's really crying in that pic, i've seen him do it at least 3 times
in public. this pic was at some somber event, can't remember what exactly, i did add some tears and messed with other facial features, but apparently he was actually crying.

when he was campaigning, i saw him go into a tearful rant about being tired, and stopped himself. one time, after meeting with wounded soldiers, he was very red eyed and wet around the face. had obviously been weeping. it struck me that what he was crying about was the horrible guilt of knowing it was he who sent them off to die for his own personal profit. like he had a soul, and a conscience, but didn't quite know how to hide it.

and one time, right after the 9-11 attack, he made statements from the oval office and began to cry.

but i find your comments interesting.
