No we did not listen to the U.N. for the Iraq war, but you know what Im tired of people playing monday morning quarterback. We went on the information we had at the time. COuld there never have been WMD's at all? We will never know. Maybe they were moved to Syria? But is an evil dictators regime at an end? Women are now allowed to attend schools. Iraqis no longer have such harsh govt and rules standing in there freedom. they were able to participate in voting and elect there own leaders. Yes, the civil war between them sucks right now. But its not about actions of a gov't its a religious civil war. the palestinians and the jews have been fighting over land and religion for years. We're talking about a man who tested nerve gas on innocent villages just because he could. No we may not have the original reason why we went in there correct. but im damned proud of the reasons we had in the end. Honestly myself, i would have waited a couple more months or so to go in. But that decision in not mine. Do I think we need to move against Iran right now? Yes, I do. Especially after yesterdays announcement that they have industrial nuclear capabilities. This means they could have the bomb in as early as 2009. That's putting Israel and US and Allied bases and countries at risk in the area. The Iranian president believes that "the holocaust is a myth and that israel should be wiped off the map". Not too mention they harbor Iraqi terrorist's like Al-Sadr and supply them with weapons and supplies along with Syria. Oh yea as well as kidnapping British sailors for no reason except to stall the U.N. while they continue there illegal nuclear research.
And as far as the U.N. being useful, months before they did a damn thing about Darfur I was securing planes going back and forth from there and neighboring countries dropping off food and medical aid.
If you do the research, Pres. Bush does and did have alot more experience than Obamma right now. It's all there, you can even wikipedia that one if you like. But the fact is that Pres Bush is not up for re-election and there is no reason to compare the two. Pres. Bush was elected already, there's no use in comparing them, So you have to compare Mr. Obamma to the other candidates. Which....He does not have as much experience as. Although he could contend on that with Romney and Hillary.
Giuliani served as mayor of one of the largest and busiest cities on earth.But as for Rudy not being able to take on the presidency..... Rudolph William Louis Giuliani III, (born May 28, 1944) is an American lawyer, prosecutor, businessman, and Republican politician from the state of New York.
Giulani became a popular figure as a United States Attorney prosecuting high-profile cases, including cases against organized crime and the tax evader Marc Rich. He served two terms as Mayor of New York City (1994-2001), during which time he was credited by many with initiating improvements in the city's quality of life and with a massive reduction in crime that would by 2005 make New York City the country's safest major city."[1] Others, however, criticized him as divisive and authoritarian[2] and disputed his role in reducing crime.[9] He then gained national attention for his appearances in the media during and after the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center[3] that led him to be named Time's 2001 Person of the Year[4] and be knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.[5] His high media profile in the days following the attacks earned him the nickname "America's Mayor."[6]
Since leaving office as mayor, Giuliani has found considerable success in the private sector. He founded Giuliani Partners, a security consulting business, acquired Giuliani Capital Advisors (later sold), an investment banking firm, and joined the Bracewell & Giuliani law firm, which changed its name when he became a named partner. In February 2007 Giuliani filed a statement of candidacy for the Republican nomination for the 2008 presidential campaign.[7] Most polls in early 2007 showed him as the leading candidate for the nomination.[8][9]

Oh and dont get me started on Deval. $14,000 on drapes for 1 office?! come on. those drapes better make toast, give me better abs, offer me a tax deduction, and give me some great sex for $14,000!
And yea i mean Buying a brand new cadillac when the state provides you with a perfectly good vehicle is fine too right? He knew he was wrong on that one, He had to apologize profusely and pay it all back. Not to mention the State Police funded helicopter rides that he wanted to take for a spin. And yes you are innocent until proven guitly byt the constitution but would you like to defend someone you KNOW who shot an officer trying to protect someone in the line of duty? Would you let that rest on your conscience? I just wouldnt like a man who is perfectly fine of gaining money and fame off that as my govenor.
