Notable quotes (one from Poppy and one from DICK)

Leading up to the first Gulf War, on September 11, 1990 President Bush addressing the United Nations stated: Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective -- a New World Order -- can emerge: a new era thus becoming the first President of the United States of America to openly state and work toward global governance.

...

In a foreign policy move that would later be questioned, President Bush achieved his stated objectives of "liberating" Kuwait and forcing Iraqi withdrawal, then ordered a cessation of combat operations —allowing Saddam Hussein to stay in power. His Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney noted that invading the country would get the United States "bogged down in the quagmire inside Iraq."

2. That is when it seemed the whole country was behind Bush I....
watching the rockets red glare on CNN and cheering. Little did the people know it would eventually lead to what is going on now. I have always thought Bush I is evil and has had his hand in every dirty thing since the Bay of Pigs. Bush I, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and that whole crew behind the "New World Order" must be stopped. Bush II is just their stooge, to stupid to know any better.

4. I was one of the ones awestruck with the explosions and video footage.
I'm a born again, in a much better sense.
