someone please kill this thread...

Neither should we give a free pass to a leader who may have rushed his countrymen into an unnecessary war. LBJ was the last leader who walked down that street, and we know what a disaster that turned into.

agreed

Littleb .. In November, 2002, The UN passed the final resolution authorizing military action if Hussein did not allow full and free inspections within 30 days. We waited 120 days, with troops on the ground, before going to war. This was after 12 YEARS of Hussein violating the first 13 resolutions.

38 countries were there with us.

And George W. Bush has NOT been given a free pass from anyone. People like you have been calling him a liar, said he went about this alone, and again, the list goes on.

You are entitled to your opinion. BUT ... you should know this, on July 22, 2003, President Clinton said the following on "Larry King Live" :

"It is incontestable that, on the day I left office, there were unaccounted for stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons."

Further "We never got to go back there to find out if they were ever destroyed"

This was AFTER the Gulf War II that President Clinton said all this.

All this info is easily found... some will try to find it, and make an informed decision. Others will not.

We have a higher SALES TAX than most. 6.25%

You only think that's high. Try 8.25% on for size...AND we pay more for gas than anyone else in the country.

There's a heavy price to pay for 72 degrees and sunny 365.

The 2900 was really a deal then, wasn't it. You don't have to pay for heating fuel living in sunny, warm southern California. Us frozen bunnies have to dish out about $1000/year just to keep from freezing to death.

8.25%!!!!!!!????????
I'll never complain again about 6.25%.
Of course we'll only have 72 degrees for about another 3 weeks, then over night it will change to 100+ degrees.

spiff 8.25% in mid-state ny $2.69 for super whats your gas.

In Northwest Pa... We are $2.15 per gallon for gas ... When adjusted for inflation, not bad, historically. Especially when you consider that a 1985 full size sedan averaged about 15 MPG.
