Yep, I can tell you are having a bad Riba day. lol  That's okay I had many. I am surprised I am still married!

I just P1ssed Off my wife because she asked me if I felt like I could make it to her Great Aunt’s 100th Birthday Party tomorrow. I told her no and to just tell her I was there, she wouldn’t know the difference anyway. She didn’t find the humor in it.

There was a lot of false information from the CIA. They were the ones that relied on one little guy for theirs. Not too smart. Legacy of Ashes explains it better. I still think there was a lot of hysteria about 9/11 and wanting to get the culprits. Bush and congress were given false information on WMD. The way Bush phrased the bill he sent to congress made it sound like he was going to check things out before rushing into Iraq. I wouldn't have voted for it because I saw no reason to go there. Saddam wasn't the one who blew up the towers. We should have focused our attention on Bin Laden. We also shouldn't have given the task to the Afgans to go into those caves.

I know this won't be a popular stand, but I think we would have been better off to leave Saddam in power. We sure wouldn't be in the war we are now. After all he was OUR Saddam, we funded him. Our focus totally shifted out of nowhere. I think Bush had a grudge against him, b'c of his father. We still have few troops in Afganistan and Pakistan. I heard that Gates is sending Delta force in there. It's about time. We should have done it in the first place and maybe later focus on Saddam. He really wasn't involved or a threat IMO.  

Yes, congress is to blame, but Bush put us there bottomline and I won't forgive him. I don't really forgive those that voted for war, but I can get past that.  You are correct, congress would be patting themselves on the back if we had "won". There is no winning this war. Like Vietnam, I don't see it happening. We created a real mess in Iraq...now the terrorists ARE there. Saddam wouldn't have permitted it. I see no end and I say we cut our losses and get the hell outta there. Send those boys to New Orleans or to help rebuild our infastrure, not theirs.  

So you think Huckabee...he is a person one can like. His consumption tax scares the hell out of me so there is NO way I would support him, of course along with his far right religious issues.  

I really don't think we need someone to balance the left. The dems out there are so far to the right of me I am going to hold my nose and vote for one of them!

Hey, I'm still here and treating, I'm just pretty miserable lately and haven't gone online.  Hasn't had anything to do with the site change.  I'm pretty much ok with that since they toned down the brightness.  Still in the process of getting the consult set up with Gish.  I'm getting my medical records for them, which takes a while due to all of the hospitalizations.  And I was back in for a couple days this week (saturday and got out monday) for a fifth blood transfusion, so that adds more to the mass.  I'll feel much better when I can get an official recomendation on whether or not to alter my riba dosage, or to go with a shortened treatment (six mos instead of twelve) since I'm an acute, or anything else he might care to throw into the mix opinion wise.  And I have a HUGE mouth ulcer in a place where there should be an edict from on high that no one should ever su

Ah c'mon RG you know who you like best of the republicans. Please tell us who will serve us best if the Dems don't win.

That is a tough question because not one of them has completely convinced me that they are 100% prepared for ALL Aspects of the Job or should I say 100% qualified for the Job. It even looks worse for the democrats. As far as National Security goes, I would have to go with McCain, but the 25-year comment he made still boggles my mind and scares the Hell Out of me. I don’t care enough about Iraq to be there now, let alone 25 years from now. To Hell with Iraq, Rebuild Flora/Bama (It’s a Gulf Coast Thing). Romney is just like Obama and Monica Lewinsky’s Ex-Boy Friend’s Wife. He is just another fake, lying, politician. Huckabee I am concerned about his lack of Foreign Policy. He has stuck his foot in his mouth a couple of times but there is something about his character I trust. Maybe this country has swung to far to the Left and He may be what we need to balance things out. No, I don’t think there will be any Book Burnings. If I had to vote today (and this my change tomorrow), I would probably go with Huckabee.
Did anyone else notice the look on Hillary and Obama’s face when asked how would the Affordable Health Care {that both candidates guaranteed) would be available to ALL AMERICANS, under their administration, be paid for if the people’s income would not allow them to afford “Affordable Health Care.”  They both looked like a Deer caught in The Headlights. I wanted to yell, for once tell the truth. The same people that are struggling to take care of our own Health Care. We will have the additional burden. Yes, me and you.

One last Rant. I am so sick of the Excuses I voted for the War because I was deceived. If they had done their jobs, they would not have been deceived. The threat of WMD didn’t just pop up over night. It had been going on for years I hate to have to keep defending Bush but the information is not correct. Iraq taunted The UN for years over inspections and even refused to allow them into some parts the Country.
They didn’t vote one day and we were dropping Bombs the next day. There where plenty of time to make a stand and say “maybe this is not such a good Idea after all and we need to put more thought, discussion, and re-vote on this. If this war would have been a success, they would be bragging about how they voted for it and the WMD would be irrelevant.


Basically they are saying” I voted to send our Country into War. Out of Emotion because of False Information. They expect me to take their insults about The Bush Administration (Whom I Don’t Support) seriously when they are guilty of the same thing.
CAN YOU TELL IT IS A BAD RIBA DAY?

Yep, both voted for the war, but Bush really tricked them into thinking he was going to go through UN inspections first. I don't think the congress that voted for this expected him to rush right in and they were not happy he did. I wouldn't have voted for it. Why the hell did we have to go there in the first place, the terrorists were in Afganistan not Iraq.
