I don't understand why you waste your time trying to have thoughtful discussion with people who are as closed minded as George, Shawn, and unfortunately Jackie. 

P.S. David....

I believe that is the first time in my entire life I've ever been called "closed minded".

Sorry about that Jackie. But, you have to be closed minded to say that Bush lied and snowed everybody, including Congress, when the intel information that Congress received was completely independent of the White House. And if that is the case, and Bush supposedly lied, every member of Congress had to be in on the lie (except Barbara Lee D-Calif). And if that last statement is true, We the people, are truly screwed.

David. I have no fear of the truth! And I do believe the truth will come out. 


But the truth is getting shoveled under! The onus was always -- ALWAYS
-- on Saddam to prove he didn't have WMDs. Not the other way around.


I can believe I'm letting myself get sucked into this again, but....

Oh well, being of open mind and all.... 


You tacitly defend Shawn's claim that Abu Ghraib is the equivalent of
Nazi concentration camps. That's hardly *my* definition of an open
mind.



What?

By not speaking I defend Shawn's claims? What? I never mentioned anything to do with Nazi concentration camps. Dude. Get a grip.


You can't prove a negative, Phil. 


If had followed the protocols that he had agreed to do at the
Armistice, he could indeed have proven that he destroyed his WMD
stockpiles. He never ever did that.

Inspectors were there, Phil. They didn't find a thing. But that's okay, cause Bush sent Colin Powell to the UN with a crock of *** about weapons building trucks and yellow cake, blah blah blah.

I'm sick of telling you what Colin Powell had to say. He feels he was used. Just keep your mind shut Phil and complain about others "alledged" closed minds.

And what does that have to do with why we are 1) more interested in Sadam than North Korea, the Taliban or the Saudi's who took down the World Trade Center? 2) still fighting a war in Iraq spending our children and grandchildren into the ground, destroying lives of our own troops, while these Iraqis torture prisoners just like Sadam. 3) and we still haven't done a thing about the Saudi's involvement in 9/ll.


Watch more of Greta Van Susterin on Fox Network, she's a very good teacher.


What exact part of what I said above would Greta disagree with?

She would teach you that you don't answer questions with questions and that you don't answer questions by attempting to prove OTHER issues and then counting them as winning points.


Closed minded my ass.
