Speaking of "imminent threat" and "WMD"...
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 12:06 PM by LynnTheDem
If you were an Iranian...Syrian...North Korean...and a nation kept threatening your country, and threatening to use nukes on your country, and has the largest cache of WMD on the planet, and is the only nation to have actually used nukes on a nation...wouldn't you view such a nation as an imminent threat?

And under the bush Doctrine, wouldn't all the above give your nation the legal-by-precedent right to launch a "pre-emptive strike" on that nation?

After all, Iraq never threatened America and bush still launched his Doctrine on them...

1. That's a fair observation
Made by a clear thinking individual.

Too bad.

That's not what THEY think.

They got that Toby Keith, your with us or your again' us, and if you again' us, we'll put a boot up your ass thing going on.

This administration is rotten to the core, and every chance I get I try to explain to people that they think they did a good thing when they voted for the monkey.

That's not the bad news.

The bad news is, they don't understand that they also voted for all of these other evil bastards that came with him.

God help us.
