The Germans might have been closer than many thought...

I'm just wondering why you feel the need to berate card counter. I've noticed more than a few posts where you are harassing him. I'm not trying to point the blame on you here (I'm sure he's had his share of posts towards you of a similiar nature) but why don't you just not respond to his posts? I feel this sort of assault brings down the general quality of the otherwise pretty decent Politics forum.

Thanks.

This wasn't a new war? Oh come on..do you really believe that?

Chemical weapons found? What, some moldy Sarin? We were propaganized that we were threatened with a robust Iraqi chemical, nuclear and biological weapons program. And many credible people knew and said it was BS. And they were proven right.

The war wasn't bungled?

Again, please let it sink into your head what was said before and during this war by senior administration officials about both the human and financial costs of this war being minimal, because apparently you weren't listening the first time. And said officials (of course including Bush) were wrong.

Some people apparently can be fooled all of the time.

Try the Congressional Record. Prescott got convicted of trading with the enemy, pretty had to censor that.

Before the War, many industrialists and investors aided Germany. One person, in particular, kept his Nazi ties and investments while the war was going on, and continued to aid Nazi's after the war was over. It wasn't Kennedy.

Is there a website with the names of US companies that did business with the Nazis?

I'd like to promote those sites and get people to boycott those companies.

I believe reality, clearly you do not.

Yes.

There is some proof right there.

There may in fact have been such programs. To say there were not weapons is not only naieve, but also incredibly foolish. The only real question is where were the weapons smuggled off to.

[/ QUOTE ]

Far more credible people said there were weapons. I am going to believe the ones who are voicing an opinion based on facts and prescedent.

[ QUOTE ]
And they were proven right.

[/ QUOTE ]

Since weapons were found, they were by definition proved wrong. I love how you can be so stupid as to admit to something, then say it proves the opposite.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not at all. You might make an argument that post war reconstruction was bungled, however, prior to the war the administrations line was essentially this. "It's not going to be easy and its going to take a while."

They were very wrong about the financial costs being minimal. However, I believe they were right about the human cost being minimal. Myself and a friend of mine (former Marine Master Sargeant) agreed that if we get out of Iraq with less than 10k dead it would be a great result, this was in the weeks leading up to the war.

For something their relative did?

[jaxmike]

I will take what blame is mine. I know I am not innocent of everything. I felt like some of his posts were personally insulting to me, thats why I responded in kind.

Isn't it a little late for that? The management people that made the decision to do business with the Nazi's are long since dead or retired. What possible good could come of boycotting those companies now? Should the people who work for Acme Widgets now be put out of work because some CEO who has been dead for 20 years decided to to business with Nazi's 50 years ago?
