Patrick’s Rants

In what I can only call ‘about time’, some top level Republicans are voicing opinions out of lock step with W regarding the war in Iraq. In
this article we finally find some Republicans break their ludicrous support of the president and begin to speak some common sense. I hate watching the news, seeing that three more service men or women lost their lives, dozens or hundreds more were injured all while W says “the world is safer, the United States is safer…” all because we removed Saddam Hussein from power. Well, Iraq has never been part of the so-called ‘war on terror’. Let me repeat that for the cheap seats. Iraq has never been part of the so-called ‘war on terror’. Osama Bin Laden was, and presumably still is, in Afghanistan hiding in a cave. We have all but given up on finding him as far as I can tell. Cynics have suggested (and I am one of them) that we have him secretly tucked away, only to be ‘captured’ sometime just before the elections in the US. Again, time will tell.
