    [QUOTE=Puckstop31]Since this thread has really derailed...

    "Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."
    - Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003 | Source

    "I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
    - Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002 | Source

    "One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
    - President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998 | Source

    "If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
    - President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998 | Source

    "We must stop Saddam from ever again jeopardizing the stability and security of his neighbors with weapons of mass destruction."
    - Madeline Albright, Feb 1, 1998 | Source

    "He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
    - Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998 | Source

    "[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
    Letter to President Clinton.
    - (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998 | Source

    "Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
    - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998 | Source

    "Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
    - Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999 | Source

    "We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
    - Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002 | Source

    "We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
    - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 | Source

    "Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
    - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 | Source

    "We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
    - Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002 | Source

    "The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
    - Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002 | Source

    "There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
    - Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002 | Source

    "In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
    - Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002 | Source

    "We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
    - Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002 | Source

    EVERYBODY was duped by Saddam Hussein.

    Puckstop31- statistically speaking, you cannot be right 100% of the time, on everything. Would you mind backing up a bit, and allowing others to freely express their views, even when they might differ from yours?

    I don't see him not allowing others to freely express their views. They are perfectly free to do so.... BUT (what a wonderful thing free speech is) he is ALSO free to disagree and state exactly why he disagrees. He is allowed to question their reasons for feeling the way they do.... just as others have questioned him for feeling and believing what he does. It's a wonderful two way street Obviously he is not the only one that feels this way.

    PAM, EXCELLENT point. It sucks being the president I would imagine LOL. You get your intel from others but you and you alone must take the blame or the praise for it. it's a tough job to have and it is not a job I would want. Everyone wants to place blame but the fact is.... the blame CANNOT be put on one person alone.




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    Ummm, No. Others are freely exppressing their views and I am arguing my position against theirs. It is called debate. Sorry if my views are not in synch with most people here.

    Also, where did I ever say I am right 100% of the time? I believe very strongly in my opinions and I like to think I am good at backing them up. That does not make me right all of the time.

    That silly freedom of speech thing, ya know?

    Such is life being a goaltender. Take it from someone who knows.... it takes a "special" kinda person to be a goalie. LOL not only am I married to one... but I have two brothers who are also goalies. LOL BUT after saying that.... it takes a special kind of woman to understand them But I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world.

    Well, it is clear you do not understand the threat we face. It is not uncommon either these days.

    So, knowing that... Why bother going farther?

    I just don't want to vote for someone just because they are a woman and we have seen what men do so let's give a woman a chance.... to me that is a scary way to guage your vote.

    I vote for the candidate that has ideas and goals that I believe in. I don't vote for a particular party, I don't vote for the best looking candidate and I certainly won't vote for someone just because they are a woman.... Her ideas, so far, are not in my most important issues list and frankly I don't agree with half of what she wants to do.... I'm not even sure she believes in what she wants to do. Being a woman doesn't override my concerns that is for sure.

    Exactly how I do it. I've never voted a straight party ticket in my life. I like to say that the art of ticket splitting was taught in kindergarten when I was growing up.

  12. Anybody remember when George I picked the incredibly unqualifed Dan Quayle for his running mate because he was good looking and resembled Robert Redford? Figured that would get the female vote.

    But then...no one has ever gone broke underestimating the gullibility of the American public! Especially if your last name is Bush!

    He got into office, didn't he?


    Sophist wanders away from her keyboard to stare dreamily at the life-size cardboard cut-out of Danny Quayle she keeps in her bedroom.




    Ugh.... //shudders.
