By tons you mean what is it under 700. and by his own agenda you mean protecting you. and by old cliche lines you mean the ones that say Saddam was a threat and you should be glad he isnt in power any more.
On that note, I don't get you people. I don't believe you are pro-saddam meaning you actually favor his rule. The only thing I can gather is you never thought he was a threat. Which all the evidence supports the contrary. Is it the feel oh we are America, Saddam can no way threaten us. I don't get it but would be happy to have an answer from you or anyone else for that matter.

I voice my opinion and I get responses back like "well, you'd hate it if you needed help and the US didn't help you"
Who asked the US for help in Iraq? Who asked the US to ivade them? oh right, no one. Doing one thing on your own isn't the same as helping someone at their request.

We were helping ourselves wiseguy. Do you know how many interest we have in the middle east? Obviously, you dont have a clue because if you did and realize how much of a threat he was to those interest and the possiblity that he was seeking ways to destory us you'd understand that first most we are helping ourselves and the Iraqi people get the benefit from that.

I get hammered as an "anti-american" because I am pissed off that Bush is sending decent, young potential heros and leaders off to some desert to die under the banner of lies and falsehoods... yeah, WMD's... that's a good one.
Am I an anti-American? Hell no... it pains me to no end that Americans are being sent to die for their assclown pesident. They're not dying for their country. They die at Bush's request.
I'm anti-Bush. Not anti-American.
To all the haters who think otherwise...

I don't necessarly think you are Anti-American. I just think you are stupid. You haven't thourghly investigated the situation and deemed Iraq as a threat. Maybe that is Anti-American I don't know its more of a judgement call. Your whole argument is based on biases and miss-information or incomplete information. American's arent being "sent to die for their assclown president" They are being sent to protect American Interest and fight a war on terrorism. And no saying the battle in Iraq is fighting terrorism doesn't mean it is connected to 911. Which, I am not ruling out just saying there isnt enough evidence to support an argument either way. It has only been a year and your so quick to say there are no WMD's what happens when/if inspectors find some? Are you going to eat your propaganda? Your argument seems to point that you don't believe Saddam ever had them. Which everyone that knows something about the situtation knows he did. And knowing that he did should lead to the question is where are they now? One would hope they they are buried in the middle of the desert under an abadoned farm. Not in the wrong people's hands.
