Former Democrat For Ron Paul
[Read the article: The calm before the storm]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It felt odd yet good, real good, as I changed my party affiliation from Democrat to Republican so I could vote for Ron Paul in New Hampshire.
When I heard that Fox was not going to allow him to join in the debate over the weekend, I called the NH republican committee and voiced my disapproval They agreed that with the state's motto being "Live Free or Die," it would be wrong not to have liberty's champion.

The US has 730 Military Installations & Bases in Over 50 Country
[Read the article: The bipartisan consensus on U.S. military spending]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]http://www.ppu.org.uk/pm/usbases.html
Including Japan, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands, and England.
Can't they defend themselves?

Before you keep on supporting it, Democrats
[Read the article: Mike Huckabee wants to abolish the IRS]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Before you keep on supporting it, Democrats need to take another look at the Federal Income Tax system.
Total Outlays (Federal Funds): $2,387 billion
MILITARY: 51% and $1,228 billion
NON-MILITARY: 49% and $1,159 billion

Why should I be forced to pay for US imperialism?
Why should I pay for the Iraq War?
Why should I pay for US military bases in Japan, South Korea, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands? They all have thriving economies. Can’t they defend themselves?
And even if you do support the above, most would agree that the tax codes are burdensome and at times baffling to comprehend.

Iran has a right to defend itself.
[Read the article: The grave Iranian threat to world peace]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Given that the US helped overthrow Iran’s democratically elected government in 1953 and install the Shah who reigned with an iron hand. And given that more recently, the US invaded neighboring Iraq under false pretences; Iran has every right to defend itself by any means necessary.

Iraq: A War Based On Lies
[Read the article: Dead party walking]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]While good news from Iraq is welcome, one should never forget that the Iraq war was bases on lies.
Iraq had no WMD, no ties to al-Quaeda, nothing to do with 9/11, and to think that its military was a threat to the US is laughable.
But one should also never forget those Democrats who are complicit in the War. Clinton and Edward voted for the Iraq War resolution and the Patriot Act. And Obama voted to fund the Iraq War.
So even if Clinton, McCain, Edwards, Huckabee, or Obama wins, America and Iraq loses by the continuation of the Iraq War. Make no mistake, the next American president, no matter who it is, will not withdraw all US troops from Iraq.

Voe For Your Principles
[Read the article: Undecided '08: Should I vote for Clinton or Obama?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Me? I would never vote for Hillary Clinton since she voted for the Iraq War Resolution and the Patriot Act.
The illegal Iraq War and the assault on our remaining liberties are for me a deal breaker. A one, two punch to the truth and freedom.

What Happend To Iraq??????????????????????????????????????????????
[Read the article: It's the economy, stupid, stupid, stupid]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]While I agree that for many people, the economy is important, American must never forget that Bush and Cheney purposely lied about the reasons for the Iraq invasion.
What America has are two criminals residing as the heads of state who will not stand trial for their criminals deeds. And to top it off, the taxpaying public will reward them with lifetime pensions and a security detail.
Now who said that crime does not pay?

Iraq: A War Based On Lies
[Read the article: McCain apes Bush on Iraq, as Dems stand passively by]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]One must never forget that Bush and Cheney purposely lied about the reasons to invade Iraq.
Iraq had no WMD
Iraq had no ties to al-Quaeda
Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11
And to think that Iraq's military was a direct threat to the US is not only laughable, but a gross insult to the mightiest military the world has ever know.
The facts are all here:
Study: Bush led U.S. to war on 'false pretenses'
Hundreds of false statements on WMDs, al-Qaida used to justify Iraq war
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22794451/
The crimes are documented. All that it will take to bring these criminals Bush and Cheney to trial is a few good people.

Never Forget: A Needless Illegal War Based On Lies
[Read the article: McCain's risky strategy]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]What is the point of 'victory' if the Iraq War was based on lies?
Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11,
Iraq had no ties to al-Qaida
Iraq had no WMD.
And to think that its military was a direct threat to the US is not only laughable but a gross insult to the mightiest military the world has known.
The sad part is that anyone who still believes in the above must be living is an alternative universe.

Bush Smirks
[Read the article: Bush chides Clinton, Obama]

One Of The Few Democrats with Principles
[Read the article: Cleveland to Dennis Kucinich: Phone home]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The majority of the Democratic Party wants Bush and Cheney to walk away free from from their crimes.
Mr. Kucinich is one of the few Democrats who wants them to serve time in prison after their trials for starting a war based on outright lies.
Sadly, the Democrats care more about winning the White House than making sure theses criminals do hard time in prison.

A Two Step Approach
[Read the article: Brand-aid]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]1 - Impeach the criminals Bush and Cheney

Against The Iraq War and the Patriot Act?
[Read the article: Dowd: Are (Hillary's) women necessary? ]

A Good Start Demorats Now On To Impeachment
[Read the article: House Democrats reject telecom amnesty, warrantless surveillance]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Bush and Cheney's crimes are no secret.
They set up a propaganda program to sell a needless war to the American public.
Now that the Democrats are beginning to wake up from their long slumber, maybe someone could mention to them about these impeachable offenses so Congress can start hearing and at long last put these criminals in prison.

Bush And Cheney Are Criminals
[Read the article: Five years of Iraq lies]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The only thing keeping the criminals Bush and Cheney from prison is the feeble, spineless and pathetic Democratic Party.

Charlie Rose: Ass Kisser Of The Establishment
[Read the article: The ongoing exclusion of war opponents from the Iraq debate]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It was never so apparent than on this show which celebrated the 5th anniversary of the illegal Iraq War.
These hacks who supported the illegal war and help spread the Bush Administration's propaganda campaign should hang their heads in shame.
Their lies?
Lie 1 - that Iraq had WMD
Lie 2 - that Iraq had ties to al-Quida
Lie 3 - that Iraq helped with the 9/11 attacks
lie 4 - perhaps the most laughable claim - that the Iraq military was a direct threat to the US.
