Unfortunately for your argument they did happen to find enough nuclear material to give Iran’s president a pretty powerful wet dream. Just because they were left over doesn’t mean they weren’t there. That’s retarded. It’s like saying the leftovers in your fridge don’t exist because they are old. :huh:

 

Besides, biased source is biased.

 

 

So? If a mom and pop store is poorly run do you expect the government to step in and save them? What if 100 such stores close? 1000? The government doesn’t care about them and small businesses fail EVERY DAY and with them go thousands of jobs EVERY DAY but you never hear about them because they aren’t “big enough”. Now why is it fair for the government to save some jobs and not others? How are rural jobs less deserving of bailout money than urban jobs?

 

The real truth is no company is too big to fail. I’m sorry that people lose their jobs but that’s the way it is in every country on the planet. I guess your ideal society would have everyone working for the government in a “safe” job that’s never outsourced and never made to compete but there’s only one system of government that’s ever tried that and I do believe most of those countries failed harder than any individual company or industry would have failed. If we continue on this path of blindly tossing money to fix companies unwilling to be fixed eventually we will run out of money because let’s face it, you can’t steal from the rich forever. Eventually the rich will be made poor and, if the current trend continues, simultaneously NOT make the poor any richer. That leads to the failure of our country.

 

 

Your own quote a few posts back said there were WMD components there. You killed your own argument…

 

First of all. I think small businesses should get help too. But If you owned a company, and it was failing, you would want someone to help, hence Pseudo Laissez faire.

 

Secondly:

 

Oh too biased for you? Keep thinking he never lied about his war. His words say otherwise.

 

 

OH AND LOOKIE THERE. BUSH says it himself: “He didn’t have WMDs but he had the compacity.” I’m not arguing with you on whether or not Iraq had things that could be potential WMDs. I’m arguing the fact that Bush and his goons didn’t speak in POTENTIALITIES when he said their WERE WMDs in Iraq. HE was SO sure. You don’t say you are sure, unless you are sure. And you don’t say there are WMD, when in actuality you have no idea, and just have a hunch that there are just parts to be assembled. I’ll take your left overs argument. If you have tomatoes, lettuce, and ham, but are missing bread, would you still say “Hey I got a sandwitch in my fridge.” NO YOU WOULDN’T. Because that would be lying. A lie that has cost us thousands of lives. My argument still stands, you don’t go to war if you are unsure, that’s rediculous. It was a private agenda from the get go.

 

but enough about the past. It’s kind of pointless to argue about, what’s done is done. I’m just so excited about the next chapter on the war on terror. Chapter II:Back to Afghanistan yay <_<
