then its really just sticking with your affliations and that

this 'nest wacking' started about this coming election which
is obviously much more relevant and something we can actually
do something about.
we're not voting against a president who lied about a b***job, we're voting on a president who, incompetently (and quite dismissively) misjudged and mishandled a country as an international threat. thousands of lives have been affected and still are at stake here.

what cpayne was showing was that there has been a solid belief based on numerous intelligence reports that saddam had been a growing threat going back to the clinton administration but yet that administration didn't act on its intel. It's kinda funny that u want to bash the current president, who's a republican, for possibly mishandling a very real threat, but yet you want to overlook the facts that the past administration, who was democratic, for talking the talk, but not doing anything about it.
I do agree that bin laden should have been the main target from day one, but just because we aren't hearing about it every day in the news, like the stuff in iraq, doesn't mean that there aren't groups of troops and special ops units hunting him in afgan.
