A great many people think they are thinking when they are really rearranging their prejudices.
- William James-
Will a debate do much more than "rearrange prejudices?"

"We welcome a discussion about Iraq," Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell declared.--

Doesn''t someone have to listen for there to be a "discussion?"

Go ahead republicans,, Debate something you''ve ignored & spun out of control ---- One of the key elements for progress that''s needed immediatly is the provincial elections

ianlou, in hindsite it was wrong to invade Iraq based on the original reasoning but that makes no difference NOW. The radicals came when we invaded that is also true, but the fact remains they are there NOW. What sense does it make to abandon the Iraqis to the savage militants because the original information was incorrect?? It is very important to the radicla militants that Iraq is a failure, they would not survuve in the middle east if democracy was to be successful. What is more troubling is there are Americans that would prefer failure inIraq rather than have Bush''s policy be successful, that my friend is rank politics at it''s worst!

The prophet Peter Kumar predicted a few years ago this:

In the next American election, a candidate will win by promising to remove troops from Iraq. After the troops are removed, another, larger war will break out. Then, the troops will return.

Remember, God does not do anything without first warning the people through His prophets. So, we do not have to accept this. Don''t elect a Democrat. Elect Huckabee.

ianlou, what is the price of freedom and security? Would allowing Iraq to fall to extremists funded by Iran and Al Qead make the world a safer, better place?... Posted by notblue

notblue, My question was not aimmed at whether we should cut and run. It was aimed at the question of whether we should have invaded to begin with.
You know, before Iraq had those Iran and Al Qaeda funded extremist problems.
