November 9, 200619 yr Well said, bobbob. OH NOES: Well, that isn't a fair point because Nixon actually is a communist.
November 9, 200619 yr Well, that isn't a fair point because Nixon actually is a communist.:banghead Well, if he met with Mao it's obvious he's a real communist, and not a "bobbob1313 being sarcastic communist".
November 9, 200619 yr So leaders can't meet with opposing leaders at all without being thrown on the other side of the political spectrum?
November 9, 200619 yr So leaders can't meet with opposing leaders at all without being thrown on the other side of the political spectrum? I honestly don't know what you are talking about. Like really, I'm trying to figure it out, and I can't. I was making a joke. Richard Nixon is very obviously not a communist, and I would never say so in any serious manner.
November 9, 200619 yr Gotta love W dipping back into the good ole boy system with his nomination of Gates.
November 9, 200619 yr Gotta love W dipping back into the good ole boy system with his nomination of Gates. It sure beats giving Wolfowitz the job.
November 10, 200619 yr the everlasting image ill have of rumsfeld in my head is him shaking hands with saddam hussein back in tha day...a little ironic...dont cha think?...of course the ever lasting image of bush is of him sitting down when he hears that the second plane hit Yeah, Bush probably should've stood up right then and fought the terrorists with his bare hands. And it's really not that odd for politicians to meet other politicians, regardless of their differences. Funny how this is nobody's lasting image of Churchill, Stalin, or Roosevelt. And at least 2 of them governed nations in a state of almost war for 50 years. did i somewhere suggest that bush should have fought the terrorists with his bare hands? yeah...no...i didnt...so dont put words in my mouth...but he should have done something other than just sit there...that choice could have very well cost americans their lives...and yes, im well aware that politicians meet all time despite varying levels of differences...but when this picture was taken...we were all allies against the axis of evil...and actually...when i think of churchill and fdr, i think of this photograph... the everlasting image ill have of rumsfeld in my head is him shaking hands with saddam hussein back in tha day...a little ironic...dont cha think?...of course the ever lasting image of bush is of him sitting down when he hears that the second plane hit We were on Iraq's side during the Iraq-Iran war. :whistle thats an understatement...we practically fought/bought the war for iraq...and five years later, we were ourselves at war with iraq
November 10, 200619 yr The Iran/Iraq conflict, and the problems with Iraq shortly afterward, reminded me of the USSR being our allies in WWII. Much like the Iraqis, it didn't take long before we had our sights on the USSR, and vice-versa. Things went sour less than two years after WWII. At least it took Saddam a little bit longer to mess up the region.

So the terrorist attack on 9/11 should've just gone unnoticed?

JimmyJack is talking about the 1980's war with Iran, not this war. I think Florida Fish Fan is confused.
November 10, 200619 yr iraq was one of the many regimes reagan supported in the 80s that most ignore. just about every central american nation has dirty US blood on thier history in that time period as well.
