Profanity Alert!

Bush Says War Protesters Won't Deter Him By RON FOURNIER AP White House Correspondent February 18, 2003, 12:00 PM EST WASHINGTON -- President Bush declared on Tuesday that he wouldn't be deterred by global protests against war with Iraq, saying "I respectfully disagree" with those who doubt that Saddam Hussein is a threat to peace.

He said such a war remains a final resort, but "the risk of doing nothing is even a worse option as far as I'm concerned."

Bush said that the size of the protests against a possible U.S.-led war against Iraq was irrelevant. "Size of protest, it's like deciding, 'Well I'm going to decide policy based up on a focus group.' The role of a leader is to decide policy based upon the security -- in this case -- security of the people."
tick... tick... tick...
"Democracy is a beautiful thing," Bush said, adding that "people are allowed to express their opinion." "Some in the world don't view Saddam Hussein as a risk to peace," he added. "I respectfully disagree."
God Fucking Dammit! When will some people get it through their thick skulls that opposing the administrations present course for war IS NOT EQUIVALENT TO SUPPORTING SADAAM HUSSEIN! Of COURSE Hussein is a threat to peace. I have said as much at multiple times. I have said I could support a campaign to remove Hussein from power. But I will not be lead into supporting war by jingoistic lies and patriotic fear-mongering! It's the lies you idiot! Why is that so hard for you to understand? When you lie you create distrust. When you lie you turn people AWAY from your position, EVEN IF IT IS THE RIGHT ONE! If the current effort to unseat Hussein fails because of a collapse of the international community then Hussein will have won and Bush will be to blame for it. By lying Bush is endangering the effort to remove Hussein from power. Indeed, his lies may be providing aid and comfort to Sadaam. It is that which pisses me off more then anything.
