i agree with Robson, Iraq had no threat to the U.S but Mr Bush wanted to finish his unfinished dad's business. What really pisses me off is that there is only one congress man that has his son enlisted in the army and serving in Iraq right now. ...and thats true.....

I agree, I feel much safer now that America has invaded Saudi Arabia, oh wait.. they didn't. Instead they invaded a country that posed no imminent threat and created a situation where terrorists are now flooding into Iraq. But never mind that, USA A OKAY!

A lot of americans hate that movie, at least those who are in love with Bush.
There are also a lot of Americans who hate it because it's a bunch of whining and propaganda targeted at people who can't see otherwise. Anyone who uses this movie as the basis for their opinion is as bad as those who blindly support Bush.

Because they send other people's kids to go to a war that serves no purpose but they refuse to send THEIR kids, that's what's disturbing.

And I don't base my opinion strictly on that movie, only that the facts told in it are pretty disturbing. Of course that movie contains a good part of crap that isn't true but it also contains a good amount of truth.

If their kids were in the military they would most likely be sent. They can't MAKE their kids join the army and force them to go. Their isn't a draft.

can you remind me when Iraq attacked US soil? i must have been asleep that week.


and we will invade any country nesascary in order to protect our citizens ! Which makes me feel safe.
protect against what? afghanistan, although very poorly done, was slighty justified (although it was retarded from the beginning). you punch me, i'll punch you back. i'm not going to go around punching a bunch of other Ameircans in the nose because i'm afraid of them doing it to me first for no reason.

A lot of americans hate that movie, at least those who are in love with Bush.
though i do like michael moore because if nothing else, i enjoy watching him stir stuff up for no other purpose than to stir things up - concidently i happen to agree with his opinion, but you can't cite his movie as a legitamit resource. it's clearly biased and with good cause. it's meant to convey an anti-bush message, e's not going to include the few things that were benefitial from him taking up office. that's like using mein kempf as an unbiased history resourcefor the 1930s. just crazy.

besides, the book dude where's my country is way better.

Yeah, Iraq was so involved with 911. You're a genius.

The ratio between American servicemen in Iraq to the number of males in the United States over the age of 35 is 1:533.

The ratio between the number of sons of American congressmen serving in Iraq and the number of congressmen in the United States is 1:535.

What was your point again?

"can you remind me when Iraq attacked US soil? i must have been asleep that week."

dereklapp, you must have have been asleep when some people from Iraq hijacked a plane and flew it straight into the World Trade Center, resutling in thousands of casualties. You must of been in hibernation, or something if you didn't hear that one.

Care to list some of those (many ) Iraqi hijackers? Or are you just blowing hot air?

You actually believe the Iraqi government was somehow involved in the attacks? If that's the case, you've been caught up in all the president's spin, which I believe went something like this:

Bush: "We know that Iraq and the al Qaeda terrorist network share a common enemy - the United States of America. We know that [insert irrelevant and misleading information here]"

Therefore the hijackers are Iraqi, instead of Saudi, Egyptian, and Lebanese? You gotta be some kind of vacuous moron to fall for such specious claims. But sadly, that description fits most of the US population, including you, my friend.
