Iran
-
How would you win a war against Iran? President Bush and his administration have done more damage to this country in the past six years then one could even begin to quantify. How much money have we dumped into Iraq, and for what? Americans are dying there in vain everyday. We are not helping Iraq, all we have done is helped start a civil war. How can one expected to establish democracy when half the country wants to stab their neighbor. Going to Iraq weakened this fine country we call home. The USA is less respected from a world view, and anything we get involved with at this point will be met with apprehension. Cooler heads must prevail! Rushing head on into another conflict on the world's stage is a bad idea. Besides, how the hell can we afford it? Last time I checked we couldn't drum up enough money to rebuild New Orleans.

whoever strikes first wins.Or it could also be, whoever strikes first causes life on earth to cease. If ANYONE fired a nuke at the US or Russia than an automatic retaliation would occur i bet, then when the one country retaliated the other would launch in order to destroy the other, and a chain reaction could occur that would basically destroy everything on earth. Im pretty sure anyone who has or wants to obtain nuclear weapons knows that if they launched them at Russia/its major allies or USA/its major allies, the world would be over.

How stupid is it to rebuilt a large city in the middle of a bowl that will NEVER be able to withstand a category 4/5 hurricane. It's a waste of money, it'd probably cost less in the long run to rebuild elsewhere. If it happened once it's going to happen again, why press their luck and waste OUR money to rebuild a doomed city?

That wasn't the point. New Orleans, education, healthcare, and a million others. This country needs to focus more time and money at home. If we had a decent education system idiots like Bush would not be elected. The biggest problem with this country is that there's another idiot born every minute and no education system to vaccinate the disease.

Nah, his stance is just one where anyone that does not agree with him is an idiot.

just because your views happen to classify you as a republican or democrat etc doesnt mean you have to support your parties nomination...

Not to mention the cities populations are a lot smaller than New Orleans. The river is NO comparison to the ocean as well, we are more able to protect our towns/cities up here from flooding of the river than they could protect New Orleans from the ocean/hurricanes. Not really fair to compare us who have just a small river to deal with to a huge metropolitan city built in a bowl at the oceans edge.
And I also agree that > just because your views happen to classify you as a republican or democrat etc doesnt mean you have to support your parties nomination...
I'm more Republican than anything but I in no way support much of what Bush has done.
