You need to get a grip....Did Saddam sponsor terrorism??? Ask the families in Israel....saddam gave 50k to the family of each suicide bomber....Saddam sent missiles into Israel to provoke a response in order to start a holy war...he now has Al quad operatives in his country...there a suicide bombings similar to the ones the go off in israel every week...yet you and these others think there was no threat??? Im totally amazed that the left in this country would actually take to defending the actions of hussein.....but still, in your desperate attempt to take down GW you continue to defend terrorist states????
obviously you didn't get my point, plus you really don't have a clue on standard procedure in case of highjacking , and if we want to turn it in a farce, you are not even good at math about 100 against 1500
Obviously you didn't get my point , which was that I think Id rather see a war with muslim radicals fought on foreign soil.
Once again you prove how absurd and ignorant you are of the facts . . . The fact of the matter is that not one, but two F-15's were scrambled out of Fall River, Massachusetts with Air National Guard pilots that were instructed by a senior member of the White House Staff to "protect" the White House at all costs. They were late getting to the World Trade Center, and told to head for Washington, DC and the capital, looking to intercept the UAL flight that was heading for the capital, but went down in Pennsylvania farmland due to the heroic efforts of several passengers. This story was well documented by various news organizations, including the Wall Street Journal. Once again, you prove yourself to be as ignorant as ever.
What is your point Mr. anal intruder????? Im not the one saying that the military didn't do a damn thing.....I was however laughing at the idea that if the government shot down these planes either then or in the future , people would be ok with that idea.....read what I say before you try to jump on me....

Don't get me started... In Italy when a nut decided to hit the Pirelli skyscraper with a piper there was a full sky of military planes in 5 minutes.... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- lmao!!!! ..get real.....a military jet is going to get up there and blow the plane out of the sky and you are ok with this???? Please...the bottom line is that war was waged on our soil....now its being waged on theirs.....is this bad to you? You really believe that if a military Jet had blown a 737 with 300 passengers out of the sky over the hudson before it hits a building that this is a good thing and is not war being waged none the less???? __________________ _____________________________
I guess you would call Brent Scowcroft the National Security Advisor for George Bush, Sr. a liberal eh? It's a shame that Dumya had such a "hard-on" for Saddam that he diverted much needed military resources away from our war on terror in Afghanistan. Just ask General Tommy Franks about that one! Do yourself a favor and try educating yourself about Republicans and conservatives that came out against attacking Iraq, such as Bush's NSA, Brent Scowcroft: From the Wall Street Journal: http://econ161.berkeley.edu/movable_type/archives/000504.html
As for your belief that Iraq supported and funded al-Qaida please substantiate your claim with factual evidence . . . "But there is scant evidence to tie Saddam to terrorist organizations, and even less to the Sept. 11 attacks. Indeed Saddam's goals have little in common with the terrorists who threaten us, and there is little incentive for him to make common cause with them." Brent Scowcroft, NSA to George Bush, Sr.
I caught you lying and spouting out your ass so you divert a new subject LOL....your pathetic......why not apologize for misquoting me and move on?....
You are a hoot!!! A supposed Republican quoting Berkeley?????? BWaaahhaaaa You are a fraud and a liar.....thats like a supposed Liberal quoting FOX or the NY POST.....so, Scowcroft disagreed...so what?? Sen. Lieberman was for the war and supported the president.....what does any of it prove you putz?????
