I'd let MA leave too, but only if they take MrK(or C...they're interchangeable)

Women Masquerading as Dirigiibles?
True enough, I WOULD support attacking them...HoHo's and DingDongs until they explode!
Forget about all that pesky "every country with an intelligence agency (including France) convinced they had them". The inspectors that Sadaam showed what and when he wanted them to see....they were the ones who "knew" best. ::)

No, that's wrong and you know it's wrong. There was a proceedure that took over a year to complete in order to direct the war machine on Iraq. It wasn't as if Bush said "jump" and everybody said "how high".
The president on his own cannot attack anybody. Only the congress can declare war.
People seem to confuse facts with opinions and outright fallacies in election seasons.
To say that the Congress just rubber stamps whatever the President says is absolutely wrong. There were stump speaches by over 550 statesmen about this issue for several months in the US. Similar debate took place in the UK and all over the world.
Does the UK rubber stamp what Bush said too? Is Bush now the leader of more than the US?
Tony Blair also said the same thing. Austrailia was with us, so were about 37 other countries. To say it was unilateral action kinda ignores the rest of the coalition. Just because Canada, France, and Germany didn't join doesn't mean the US went at this alone.
And just because Canada, France and Germany didn't participate in no means makes our actions wrong.
BTW, does Canada have a large stash of WMD? Have you shown them to the UN? Do you plan on taking on any of your bordering countries? Are you harboring terrorists or setting up training camps? Do you have mass graves of people that have been killed by your government?

Reason no 1000: If you really hate America and you want the Islamic Fundamentalists to take over, don't vote for GWB.
