Instead we have politicians investigating the CIA for political gain. CIA agents that not only put thier lives on the line but were simply following rules as they knew them. When Valerie Plame was outed, the left howled at the moon. Now THEY are not only wanting to expose CIA agents, they want to put them in jail for doing their jobs. On this day of all days I think about that. The terrorists won.

to me even thou i see it as a waste of our money and more importantly the loss of our troops for a bs invasion.
the 2 only good things to come out of this was to get rid of sadam- very minor on my list of problems we needed to deal with but glad he's gone but at what cost . if it was because of genocide then why not look to africa where these horrible atrocites have been happening. nothing there to gain. well then the bush admin should quit thumping thier chests that they were getting rid of a dictator committing genocide on the kurds. get your ass over to africa and help them out if thats a reason
and the one thing which bush would not say for reasons i understand is to move on in and get a foothold in that region for strategic reasons. weather that was his intentions or just works out that way because bush had other agendas. where we can now deploy against iran may turn out to be valuable to us in the long term to deal with that part of the world. |
