1. Fuck it, how are we any different than Napolean or the Nazis..
in that regard? Just go in and fucking level a country and take whatever the fuck you want for kicks. This really pisses me off. The Founding Fathers must be rolling in their graves.

I'd like to hear an explanation from Warner as to how he came by this armchair. He'll probably hand out some bullshit about being presented the chair by some Iraqi leader.

2. Warner is just as guilty as Bush and Cheney!
The man is a soulless, lying, pig! A total Bush toady!

3. Agreed, he and Specter are two of a kind...
they pretend to have integrity, but deep down (not very far), they're just tools.

8. I think Warner and Pat Roberts are war criminals just like Cheney
and Bush are. Bush could have never invaded Iraq without the help of those two. They have covered Bush's criminal bullshit from the word go, 100%. All the GOPers in Washington are as crooked as a barrel of fish hooks, but those two have gone above and beyond the call of Karl Rove, to push Bush's criminal bullshit to the hilt. If Bush ever goes on trial for international crimes against humanity,(piracy and mass murder)I think Warner and Roberts should be sitting right beside him.

4. Proof beyond some 13 year old kid claiming it?
Edited on Thu Jun-14-07 08:21 AM by Mike Daniels
No word of this has ever come out prior to now and somehow a 13 year discovers this information?

What's his source, how did he find out....?

It's funny how people require full documentation on certain things but will blindly accept one person's statement on other things.

7. If the kid wanted to lie about something
perhaps he could of chosen a better story than that.. Like the kid would lie about some POS chair that Warner is bragging about....

5. In the military that's called looting.
In the infantry, we would have been in serious trouble for bringing home war trophies.

9. Unless he has paperwork allowing him to have it - that's a crime
Edited on Thu Jun-14-07 08:29 AM by Solly Mack
Course, it could and can be argued that it is a crime regardless...considering the nature of the invasion and occupation
