OK, I'm TAKING the fucking last word! It is dense and obtuse in the
EXTREME to allow this fascist asshole Saddam to pursue a course of
seeking the means to impose a nuclear armageddon on the world
simply because you do not like or respect the leader of the only country
on the globe that can stop him from doing so. I did not vote for Dubya,
and I wouldn't do so for his re-election, but no matter WHO is in that
office, Saddam has to be dealt with, for ALL of our sakes, and SOON.
There is much more to any administration than its leader, and such is
the case with the post/911 effort of the Bush administration. The
campaign in Afghanistan was cutting-edge special-ops brilliance,
costing us less US lives than are lost in some bus accidents. Dubya
didn't design it, but he knew who to listen to for recommendations on
who to give the designer job to; Powell, Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld, and
probably Poppy Bush, as well. That team has been there before, and
they know what needs to be done and how to do it. They will not make,
nor can the world afford, the mistake of leaving that rabid nuke-lusting
Saladin-idolizing-and-emulating satrap in power again. Get over your
inverted cult of anti-personality, and do not be willing to allow someone
like Saddam to develop nukes and either use them himself or farm them
out to terrorists just because you're waiting for a prez you like better to
be elected to kick his ass; once that happens, the deaths will be
counted in at least the tens of millions. We made the mistake of
dithering and quibbling and sniping and sitting with our collective
thumbs up our self-righteous and condemnatory asses while Al Quaeda
trained and infiltrated the terror flyers who killed 3000; if we sit on them
and rotate some more, the nuclear terror that may well follow would be
many orders of magnitude worse, and certainly far too much to risk
simply because you have a personality conflict combined with a big
enough chip on your hostile shoulder to allow a vicious, conscienceless
and massively miscalculating tyrant such as Saddam to obtain the
means to blow all your smug, snarky, snide, snotty and supercilious
animus away rather than being dealt with by the only person who can
order same - a person you don't like.
