This picture is of an 18 month old boy, who thanks to Saddam has been suffering from severe malnutrition.

If Bush had not gone into Iraq, this child would be dead.

Sen. Kerry aka Wannabe President, this child would be dead if it were up to you and if you get elected and pull the troops out more will die. Their blood will be on your hands.

My man, you can do better than that!!!!

Now, if your statements hold true, please explain how this baby was being oppressed by Saddam. And, don't make a blanket statement to satiate your Pro-Bush needs.

Also, get back to the issue: justifications for war in Iraq, not, "...oh look how much suffering we've stopped because of the wonderful Mr. Bush..." I recognize that our troop's presence has helped some people, but that is not the point (at least a positive though).

Where are the WMDs? Just answer the question.

...ok....didn't read before responding...sorry....

I understand the small child situation.

But, the issues that brought us there still remain.

You got to be kidding me. I can show you a picture of a starving mal-nutritioned kid in North Korea. There are thousands of more starving child in North Korea then Iraq. Or maybe I should post a picture of a child that was stabbed in Brazil from the wide spread viloence and corruption of the city. How about the innocent children that have to face the brutality of the Haitian uprising. Has Bush gone full throttle into any of these other countries to save the children? Don't try to hide the real reasons of war by cloaking it with humanitarian reasons, because that would mean the US would have to attack many other countries.

lucky for us that no child get's left behind and no american child goes to bed hungry.

He's not heavy, he's my brother.

What about the poor starving children in Appalachia, send in the troops!

If you know these people and do nothing, what does that say for yourself?

While I still think Bush is the best choice for president out of the other options, and I don't have a problem with our ousting of Saddam - this kid has nothing to do with it. It's not our job to take care of every person on earth. It's not even our government's job to take care of every person in america.

Ya mean we can't tax everyone at 100%, take everyone's personal propertey, and all assets, declare it now to be owned by the government and then start a socialized health care system where by every citizen and non-citizen will have equal everything under and above the law?

Was that a run on sentence?

This way the Bill Gates's of the world will be on the same level as illegal aliens. This would only be fair, after all why should Bill have all the money?

Next we tackle the R.O.W., copy and paste!

We would all need to wear gray clothes so we would all appear to be equal. We would not want anyone to feel as if they were a lesser person if their clothes were different.

Food? Gruel for everyone. Cows are people too remember, so we wouldnt want PETA to get offended.

We could demoloish all current single family houses as they are a sign of status in the community. Public housing for everyone. Its the only fair thing to do.

What's next...

Education
R&D
Entertainment

Are you sure thats a picture of a boy? That pink hat makes me think not.

Where are the WMDs? Just answer the question.

And a Damn good one! Since Saddam WAS known to have them (documented use against Kurds, Shias, and Iranians) and we know his stockpiles of VX and GB nerve gas totalled more than what was destroyed! Gee, instead of pertending they were made up by the Bush administration, we ought to be making a concerted effort to find out what DID happen to the WMD!

Very sad. There is too much of this in the world, I agree. But I still can't help but wonder if this poor soul is worth more than the those of the parents of our well fed American children.

"Some day this war's gonna' end."

I hope soon, though I fear it won't be.

CW, where are they? That is the reason we are at war, right?

Seriously, Kim is shakin' his wanker at the world and shooting "practice" nukes over Japan and was doing it before Iraq.......why not face this?

...hmmmmm....maybe Iraq is practice! Things are going to get much worse than better.

that’s very simple to answer, we waited to goddam long and did nothing when we had little or no proof and now many years later he has very powerful weapons and when or if we go to war with him now it will be very bloody and many will die, he has grown to big without anyone stopping him. We missed our chance to take him out without a high American death rate. If only we could go back in time and remove him before he gained the POWER. But now we have proof, but it’s a little too late.

Many many will die when the time comes.

I think we learned from that mistake.

RDC

FOOD? soylent green is people.

Where are the WMD in Haiti?

Using Bush's logic and tactics... and the Patriot Act, soon he will find WMD in the homes of random middle eastern families in New York, California, Texas, and the rest of the United States. WMD in Kerrys house, WMD in the Muslim Temple, WMD in Al Sharptons Church, and so on. Does Bush know what WMD stands for?
