Now here's my take.
If the whole gulf war was about oil, why did we stop halfway?
If we did then, what we're planning now, we would have a puppet regime in Iraq pumping all the beautiful black stuff our way.
But we liberated Kuwait, protect Saudi, and went home. Why not finish the job and grab the oil? Maybe the original gulf war was more about stabilizing a region we depend on for our energy, rather than stealing crude.
As for President Bush, guess what....he is the president. So he's not the greatest speaker. Does that fault his leadership? FDR could'nt walk. Did that make him less potent as a President?
A leader should not be judged by the quality of sound bites he produces. If that's the case, let's elect Kasey Kasem.
Perhaps we have trouble following the man's speeches because we're so used to listening to BS, that we can't understand a person when they speak the truth.
Look, is Bush right? I don't know.
But I do know, he's the President. He gets the briefing from the NSA, CIA, etc, and knows a hell of a lot more than any of us.
Unlike many, I trust our government to act in our best interest.
If Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon, or any other President was in office during this trying time, he too would have my support, be he a democrat or republican.
