A great quote from President Bush.

[Dylflon]

Yes, but you can't look to the past with today's eyes. At the time Iraq was involved in a 10 year long war with Iran, who at the time were our biggest enemy as they had a American hostage fetish. Iraq was the lesser of two evils. And none of this has anything to do with whether or not the recent war was justified.

It was later discovered that America also gave IRAN weapons. They were paying tehm to kill eachother.

Socialism isn't a bad thing.

Canada is a somewhat socialist country, and in my opinion, we have a higher standard of living than US.

We have universal health care, where we don't have to mortgage our house if a hospital trip is required.

Universal health care has its pros and cons. It's a good solution for Canada, but not necessarily every country.

And I've heard about the lumber dispute before. Probably because I read the newspaper rather than watching TV.

I try to avoid reading the newspaper when possible as the chemicals used to produce the ink are known to be hazordous in some cases to health.

You are referring to Iran/Contra I take it. Wasn't that weapons for hostages?
