Just wondering. Do you guys have any reasons to hate him? You don't
hate Putin, do you? He also managed to subdue some terroristic nation
without trying to be "civilised" much, so what's the difference? And
contrary to Saddam, he does have some amounts of weapons of mass
destruction.

I think most Americans regret Dubya's disastrous neocon campaign. Saddam
was
still an *** and deserved to die, although the event is kind of
anti-climactic at this point. I don't think the analogy to Putin is
particularly relevant.

I agree. He could fight back.

Exactly. Also, we didn't go to war because Saddam was a bad man. We went to
war due to a hidden agenda, combined with hubris and incompetence,
aided and
abetted by a spineless Congress.

Thanks. You revive my faith in an American nation. I happen to
believe that we, as your allies, do have a duty in helping you in your
stupid wars if we can, but it feels reasonably bitter at times, so you
should understand me, I think.

Look at the polls, most Americans are not happy we are there and Bush's
approval ratings are in the toilet.
