Ok before this thread gets completly hijacked I read the report till about here:

Quote

It concluded Saddam had dismantled all of his WMD programs shortly after the 1991 Gulf War and had never tried to reconstitute them.

That's not even close to what the report said. This article is slanted from the start but I decided to humor myself and take it with a grain of salt.

Withen weeks to months Sadam had the ability to revamp his pre 1991 program to moderate production reaching full production in a little over a year.

He also had 500 tons of raw uranium...after enrichment (wich he had the capablity to do after the world turned a blind eye) could produce an estimated 142 bombs.

Several missle programs were found to be in violation of 1441 mainly because HE LAUNCHED THEM AT KUWAIT DURING THE INVASION.

Based on my statments above wich are based on facts I would say the I fall under the "misconception crowd" If liberals want to hammer Bush supporters hammer them for being conservatives supporting a president running a deficit. That's more along the lines of swaying from your base.

Cognitive dissonance is a psychological phenomenon which refers to the discomfort felt at a discrepancy between what you already know or believe, and new information or interpretation.

Why use those big ol words? It's "hard work" to understand them. You have to break it down to simple words and phrases that are easily understood by those less inclined to think for themselves like "You have your head buried in the sand".
Here is a visual aid:

man this derailed fast.

THANKS NUKE!:rolleyes:

ok now an attempt on back on topic.

Lets see those 3/4 are disillusioned and the other 1/4 see the light.

Iran is just going into a fake nuke war with isreal due to no support form STRONG regional powers. Dueto that reason isreal can basicly be declared safe for the moment.

ok im done with my blabber.

It's odd, but that writeup does not reflect a single "bush supporter" that I know.

I do like the "bush supporters are ignorant" tone though. Technically, kerry supporters aren't ignorant because answering "I don't know what his stance is" is accurate.

You kidding?

You got folks over in that other thread right now trying to say that the HE cache was WMD.

For the last year and a half, all sorts of....

No this is useless...

Lots of people right here think that Iraq either posessed WMD and/or an active WMD program, and thinks there was any significant ties to Al-Q.

Hell - YOU prolly do.

"It's odd, but that writeup does not reflect a single "bush supporter" that I know."

No way...

"Study shows most Bush supporters under important misconceptions. "

Nice rant. Hardly an unbiast report but a nice rant.

Convieniantly left out some rather important parts of the report in his quotes but that is to be expected.

As for the misconceptions. the same can be said about Kerrys supporters and his economic, Health, and Prescription, drug plans

Oh, this is rich.

Thrawn makes a post mentioning Iraq 14 times

Nuke asks thrawns opinion since 99% of the post was not thrawns words.

A flurry of two dozen plus post ensue on whether Nuke is off topic. (if your still confused about this read line 2 above)

Meanwhile gunslinger takes on the content of the thread starter and gets no replies whatsoever. (kind of ironic considering the "Cognitive dissonance" sub-discussion)

Pass me some of that popcorn.

Am I kidding? Are you serious?

I find it odd that canadians are insisting they know what people in a different country are thinking. That's pretty damn funny.

You go ahead and pretend you know more about U.S. politics than Americans. It's funny to see you canadians finally start to develop a sense of self worth. Hell... eventually you'll start crusading to change the beliefs of people in other countries... and if they don't listen... well watch out.

Lol you TOTAL loser.

I guess you'd have to be on the receiving end of that kinda lame comeback, for I dunno, at least a coupla hundred times before ya'd realized how impotent, how completely lame that kinda response is.

Oregonian putz.

I don't mean to get too harsh... I got lotza friends just like you. shrecking treasures.

Mini D · « **Reply #43 on:** October 26, 2004, 01:53:10 AM »

I'm sorry nash. How else am I supposed to take it when a Canadian tells me I don't know what the people I'm associating with believe in regards to politics?

Talk about lame comebacks... and completely lame presumptions. You do realize you don't have to read these boards at all to sit back and feel superior to the average American voter... don't you? You can do that all on your own? I mean... that's what this is all about right now isn't it?

Oh wait... it's about your concern for U.S. foreign policy on the stability of the rest of the world. Yes. I forgot. You're just concerned, not criticizing people for having a different oppinion than yours and hoping to find anything that labels them as morons. Nah. That can't be it.

We are seeing every day on this board and in this very thread the support we need to confirm that the report is accurate. We have been debating the dishonest assertions of your president mouthed through his brain washed minions on this board for 3 years now.

All the americans we know behave exaclty as the article describes. Your self included.

The Cognitive dissonance thing is just the world that right wing americans live in.
How else can they clap and cheer as the president that presided over 911, the dan rather white dust attack and the Washington sniper says that your country wont be safe from attack under the other candidate...If a US city had been nuked his minions would still say that 5 citys would have been nuked with a "liberal" at the helm.

lol
