My apologies to the rest for having to discuss political lies, and half truths on this medical information news forum. I wouldn't have to if people who are not even citizens of the U.S. would stop posting such crap.

2tuff, if that is you with that inverted collar as a man of the cloth, you might want to focus on the flock (duped) and leave the lies to somebody else.

Just some points your posting failed to mention.

Many politicians on both sides of the aisle were in favor of the Iraqi invasion.

The Patriot act was not G W bushes alone

The New Orleans fiasco was led by a Democratic Governor, and a Democratic mayor. Remember the 100 or so buses not mobolized to evacuate people. If that isn't enough, how smart is it to live below sea level in a hurricane area?
The election wasn't stolen by Bush. It was protested by the Democrats, and a Democratic court settled the issue

So 2tuff take your posting of lies and (s)tuff them.
