Imagine how much aid we could provide as a nation if we weren't also paying an annual "tribute" to the U.N.

This article should be worded differently.

More like: People ignored the Bush administration's corruption.

Bush managed to get enough votes to justify stealing TWO elections, so I must, bitterly and with much regret, disagree.

The more the Democrats continue protests against the Iraq, the more I begin to understand how they truly view America. They don’t see America as the greatest force of good in the world. They choose to ignore the America that has overthrown two tyrannical, totalitarian regimes in Afghanistan and Iraq—one of which employed weapons of mass destruction on his own people. They ignore the America that has given a voice to more than 40 million people who were previously denied the basic freedoms that some take for granted. They ignore the America that has deterred Libya from pursuing a clandestine nuclear weapons program. In one decisive America has liberated the world from four different threats to international peace and security. With all these good deeds, they still insist that America has done no good through this war.
They will try to deny it, but there is no escaping the fact that they are part of the “Hate and blame America first crowd.” They said that saving Iraq from terror and totalitarianism was the wrong thing to do. They didn’t blame Saddam Hussein or the terrorist organizations that he supported for threatening American lives and murdering countless innocent civilians—they blamed the United States instead. But then, somehow, they always blame America first. When members of our military, sent to Iraq as part of a multinational force with the consent of the United States Congress, were killed in combat, the “Hate and blame America first crowd” didn’t blame the terrorists who murdered the soldiers, they blamed the United States. But then, they always blame America first. When Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations fighting in Iraq exploit sectarian divisions within Iraq to create chaos, the Democrats don’t blame the terrorists and their allies who view democracy as a threat to their way of life¬—they blame United States policies of the past five years. But then, they always blame America first. When 80,000 to 150,000 Iraqi civilians were killed, the Democrats didn’t blame the terrorists who use human-shield tactics and target innocent civilians to achieve their goals or Iran for funding, arming, and training terrorists to kill. They blame the United States. But then, they always blame America first. Your numbers are small and the American people know better.
Liar!
I blame bush & conservative Calvinist Trinitarrians for prosecuting an illegal immoral War.
Self-determination of self-government requires defense of self. WE gave the Iraqi people nothing they didn't obtain by their birth. Freedom. They chose to live in subjugation. They still do.
Liberty requires not merely the defense of ones-self, but their neighbor as well. That will not happen when the people chose to subjugate their Free Will to that of their religious leaders.

Alot of Americans have the memory and attention span of goldfish, that's why they keep falling for the same tactics and voting for the same kind idiocy year after year.
I remember pretty much everything from the age of 2 through now. It is kind of a curse, actually.
I remember Nushawn Williams because I used to work in Jamestown right around the time it happened.
Thankfully, I have NO daughters, and only one son, who actually turned into a pretty decent man, despite having me as a father!
You have completely dissarmed me with that answer...{big grin}

Have a nice day.

Come on people, is this a surprise, no money can be spent without 435 representatives and 100 senators getting there fair share. They spend all their time trying to get as much money as possible to their state or district so their can get reelected by the ignorant voters. All 535 of the representatives and senators are corrupt, elitist and power hungry.

As for Bush, VETO some pork spending bills, oh that’s right this is the kinder gentler Republican Party. I guess your words work,“If you are not with us (BIG HUGE CORRUPT GOVERNMENT) then you are against us (the conservatives).

Bush is already out the door, now we need to kick out 435 representatives and 33 senators in November, Right like that will happen because the majority of voters are ignorant and lazy and desire BIG HUGE CORRUPT GOVERNMENT to take care of them.

Look at the votes.
Poor black racist and uppity, elitist Volvo driving, Starbucks drinking, tofu eating,'white guilt' liberal snobs. That's Obama's base. Hard working, blue collar Americans want NOTHING to do with Barry/Barack HUSSEIN Obama.
This has nothing to do with race. You don't know me. How much time have you given to painting poor schools and orphanages. How much food and money have you given to charities lie Americans Second harvest and Feed the Children etc? Don' tell me liberals. You're all talk and no action.
If there were a black candiate that would keep our taxes loser, keep our country strong and safe and has less government, I'd back him or her in a heart beat.
What I hate is lazy, no good criminals black or white. Drug dealers and welfare cheats abusing our system and we should NOT have to pay for their lives or their healthcare.
These bean TURD eating liberals will calll anyone a racist or bigot who doesn't vote for Obama or follow him BLINDLY.
These scumbag liberals have even called Bill Clinton a racists. lol Bill Clinton/wife Hillary (I'm no fan of them) has done more for the black people in his 8 years as president that Obama ever did and who are they voting for? The black Muslim. Now that's RACIST.
Shame on you evil, no good, immoral, Godless socialist liberals slimebags.
We even have an adopted 9 year old black child in our family (wife's side of family), so you don't have a clue to what you're talking about. A good smart kid.

What we pay the UN is nothing compared to what we waste. And we always pay late. Imagine how much aid we could give our own country and others if we weren't fighting W's war.

What else is new! They lied us into the war. They lied about everything since and before. They get away with it because their corporate "buddies" own the media and with their lobbyists they in a sense own the very government that supposedly represents us.

To Chuck Z:
Why is America blamed? Because America in the form of the Connecticut Cowboy and his neo con posse brought a war of choice based on lies to the people of Iraq. Saddam was contained, had no WMD, no nuclear program, and 2/3 of the country were patrolled by our planes. He was also bordered by hostile neighbors. We were in Afganistan too, right next door when youre flying 800mph.
Here's an offer Chuck: I'm going to remodel your home for you without your consent and on my terms. I'm going to demolish it, and leave deadly items in your yard. I'm also going to take 8 years and then pass off the job to my contractor friend to finish it, maybe. You can live in the guest room while we're working on it. You try and have a normal life.

Bush is no conservative, I don’t care what he thinks or says. True conservative believe in smaller government not BIG HUGE CORRUPT GOVERNMENT, right now there are no conservatives in Washington, at best their either mutes or moderates.

Along with corruption goes incompetence. Incompetence keeps them unprepaired and this keeps them dependent on U.S. occupation. The Bush administration does not just allow corruption, they require it.
That's the down side.

The up side is that Halliburton & friends are still stealing $$$ BILLIONS; and the profit on oil goes higher day after day.

Support the President: Demand $10.00 a gallon gasoline !

Stop living in the past. The Bush admin. has had 8 years to fix anything that was broken when they came into office. They've somehow managed to candle flame and turn it into a raging inferno. Good job, guys.
Well when you spend 90% time trying to keep sorry asses like you safe without the worry of you riding a train,bus, or flying of being killed let alone going to work on a sunny day to your office and end up dead because some dumb ass DEM. president didn't do his job in which he had 8 yrs to prevent 3000 people from being killed. I am in no way saying Bush is perfect but show some damn graditude.
