BINGO!!Especially considering that none of the terrorists involved in 9/11 were Iraqi.
They were Saudis, Jordanians, and Egyptians, all of whom just happen to be our good bosom buddies.
Misstreatment of prisoners can in no way be condoned. I'll admit that it's hard to win when we play by a set of 'rules' and they have none but this is no excuse. That this has happened it all the wars man has faught still is no excuse. War is hell, and soldiers, whether man or woman, can become like beasts in a bestial enviroment. Still no excuse.
I will state that in the case of Saddam and Osama, for example, i'd be willing to entertain the notion looking the other way. THey aren't, in my opinion, human. They forfitted that right with the murder of thousands of innocent human beings. Terrorists, as a whole, are mad-dogs. You don't placate or try to negotiate with rabid animals. You take them out for the good of humanity. This is cold, but so are they. If they are 'handled' quitely, then so much the better. The world has far to many martyrs now.
As a note to my fellow Americans: We need to wake up. The government, Republicans and Democrats both, including the President, have sold out the people. They consider us cattle to be milked for the neccessary monies to keep themselves in power. Before you get to that level of power, you've already sold your soul and when you get there, the buyers collect.
As for Gore winning the popular vote, I think the Republicans just cheated better than the Democrats. Both were cheating. Both were throwing money away, our money, mostly, to elect their canidate.
That's my opinion for what it's worth.

PS: there are no such things as 'Federal dollars', those are OUR dollars! Stop government handouts and socialism be damned!
