The Republican media and political leadership made a conscious choice decades ago to demonize Democrats. It has worked. They've convinced about 35% of the people that millions of their fellow Americans are not just misguided, but are evil and trying to undermine the country.
Democrats support gun control, not to reduce gun violence, but to make it easier to send you to the gas chamber.
Democrats support civil rights not because they love freedom, but because they hate white people.
Democrats support granting refuge to refugees not out of compassion, but because they want to sneak Sharia Law into the country.
Democrats support environmental protection not out of concern for the environment (Al Gore flies in a jet!), but to destroy your jobs.
Democrats support a welfare state not because they want to ease the plight of the poor, but to perpetuate a modern day slavery.
Americans are ready for a racist piece of shit who'll lie to them, fuck everything up, and who'll take credit for the sun coming up every morning. That's all this is.
"Had all the nations involved in the 1991 war with Iraq helped make sure Iraq abided by their surrender agreement the 2003 war would not have happened"
This has got to be about the dumbest assertion written on Slashdot. Bush was going to invade Iraq and no facts were going to get in his way.
That may be true in this case, but not for Irak. There was plenty of evidence available to Bush that Irak had no WMD program, and he deliberately suppressed it.
Never been to Kauai, eh.
Or he could find the owners and offer them enough so that they sell.
And he attempted to cover it up.
Hint: it's you.
How about "It turned out you had ovarian cysts, not appendicitis, but we decided to take it out anyway."
Emergency room doctors I know are probably all untreated PTSD.
He'd have to make some kind of arrangement with his clients that would expose his scam pretty fast.
"Too good to check" department.
Then he'd actually have to pay them.
People buy pre-release collector's editions on Steam, so probably.
If a man pretended to by a woman's boyfriend, and she had sex with him under that assumption, has he committed a crime?

"You simply cannot separate the two attacks from each other."
You perhaps can't, but you should speak for yourself.
Bush knew.
The sales job was 9/11 and WMD. The true motive has never been fully explained.
"It had active bio and chem programs."
It had a poison lab for assassins working for the Saddam's spy agency. It didn't have a bioweapon or chemweapon program.
"It's only the Left that continually tries to conflate 9/11 and Iraq."
You must be too young to remember those days.
The whitehouse was trying to figure out how to attack Iraq before 9/11
Iraq was about Dick Cheney playing Risk with our kids' lives.
"Anyone can go to Baghdad, real men go to Tehran."
It makes you wonder if they're teaching the "mistake" line in schools.

They weren't wrong, they were deceitful murderous bastards.
If you're under 25, learn some history. If you over, you're probably beyond help.

Russian government commits crimes in the United States to tilt an election and you don't care?
Haven't you ever wondered what Mr. Trump knows and when did he know it?
