sorry, mistyped, that title should have been 'debate'. word.
the issue, as the current president tried to make it anyhow, was iraq and how the world is a safer place now because of it.
he said that we were attacked, and that we had to respond. iraq didn't attack us. iraq wasn't a threat. the president said that iraq would only become a stronger threat if we hadn't ignored international protocol and moved in on a defenseless country. iraq never threatened us, and were dirt poor. we found no weapons. no threats were ever made. obviously, the war on iraq was a biased, personal vendetta brought on by the president and his family. let's be clear about that.
the problem is, i can say one thing, you can say another. where's the proof? and even if you have proof, i don't have to believe it because it's you that's saying it. this, my fellas, is the political atmosphere of today. distrust, agression, fear, anger. who did this? well, i don't know if you'd believe me, but i'd guess it's the president's agenda of lies and fear.
the war on terror is a joke, but we haven't even been hunting the terrorists that comprise the enemy side of the 'war'. bush saying that the world is better without hussein is moot. the world would be better without the genocide in sudan, but i don't see the president rushing to bully the world into silence while he pushes our arms and money into the country to do something about it. maybe that's because the international community might actually welcome an end to the genocide(despite the uncomfortable reaction of bordering muslim nations that might fear for the next 'iraq' situation once american troops were placed in sudan).
where was the genocide in iraq? sure, there was political oppression, killings, imprisonments, but i can't count the number of countries in the world where this exists on my hands and feet.
the president didn't answer any of the direct questions. he didn't raise any relevant attacks on his competitor(which i suppose isn't required since the people just wanna see the president up there swaggering with that vacant crackhead look in his eyes). he said he was in a position to 'comment to and discuss to' the president of russia. i won't list the other dumb new words and phrases he used, 'new' meaning incorrect in any slang.
i don't care about the republican bias of the media. kerry was the clear winner, and i think anyone who cleared the wax out of their ears before listening to the 'debate' realizes this. crackhead.
peace
