Creating a democratic wedge in a sea of tyrants was always the strategic goal - one that has helped change the very order of the Middle East. As Bush has said, he is comfortable being judged by history. On Sun, Mar 20, 2011 at 6:50 AM, Vivec wrote: > > No. The difference is that the Bush governm

The Transportation Security Administration ordered that all of those radiation-emitting full-body scanners that have recently been introduced in U.S. airports be retested. An internal review, it was reported by CNN's Mike M. Ahlers, showed "calculation errors, missing data and other discrepancies

No. The difference is that the Bush government said that they were attacking because Saddam presented a clear and present danger to the United States, and had active weapons of mass destruction which he intended to use against America and its allies. This turned out to not be the case. The above
