If you are serious, or if you are just looking to start something, either way, you are a jacka$$.
If you are serious (and I know there are those out there who are, in this regard), consider this:
Why are we discussing striking Iraq quote first unquote? They are not living up to the terms of the Gulf War Armistice, so therefore they are saying they want to continue the Gulf War. If they want to continue to be at war, we have every right to finish prosecuting the war THEY started, and that THEY want to continue, NOT TO MENTION THE FACT that they support and harbor terrorist organizations, which is its own reason to finish Iraq off.
The nature of our society means we can never have an acceptable defense against terrorism. The security measures required to make us safe would sacrifice the very liberty we all treasure. Therefore, we should go after these terrorists in their home or host countries. As Vince Lombardi said, the best defense is a good offense.
In this regard, President Bush has failed us miserably THUS FAR in not prosecuting a war against those states whose sponsorship of these groups are responsible for the events of Sep 11, 2001, the USS Cole attack, Pan Am 103, the 1972 Munich Olympics, ad nauseum, and whose implied surrogate action should have been promptly addressed with offensive military action. Even worse are the Democrats, who want to kowtow to the U.N., our European allies, and the peaceniks-at-any-cost within their own party, and who apparently have no intention of EVER taking this bull by the horns.
Until the next shoe drops,

p.s. We need another Reagan, I'm afraid.
