my big question...
... is when did this turn into the war to "liberate Iraq"?
When all the dabte in the UN was going on, I was under the impression that the war was to disarm Hussein.
Then, the day the war begins, it is called Operation Iraqi Freedom and all the right wing spinsters are talking about "freeing Iraq" and "liberating Iraq".
I was watching the propaganda wing of the Republican party on TV today - most folks call it Fox News - and Brit Hume let it slip that those that are critical of Bush and his administraton's activities are "anti American". He then made it look like he goofed and corrected himself - "unPatriotic" he meant to say...
Amazing how gullible the American voters are... Or at least the right hopes they are....
