# That is what most people think
and why we don't want war with Iraq.

# do people honestly believe that Bush is that stupid?
I know he pretends to be, but that's how he's won the last four elections he's been in and got him into the Whitehouse.

My problem with the impending war is that we're not being treated like adults and that if there is evidence that Saddam is providing weapons to terrorists then how's about telling us? We are grown ups after all.

That aside, it's about the oil mainly in my view.

bah enough seriousness for one posting.

Why hasn't anyone 'shopped Elvis appearing in Neasden Pricerite's lately?

# Honestly, he is!
He got where he is because of who his dad is, and he agreed to do what the party donors and the religious right wanted. If you've got the right connections, it's not that difficult
During the 80's, Bush senior got him a succession of jobs in the oil industry while he 'found himself'. Needless to say, he fucked up every single post he was put in

# Indeed
he's a complete imbecile in charge of the most powerful military machine the world has ever seen... and the people pulling the strings are all fucking oilmen...

# sorry, doesn't wash with me
I think he plays a nice line in "stupid hillbilly" and people fall for it. It's a great way to stay in power - get your opponents to underestimate you.

Don't forget, he hasn't actually done anything yet with Iraq, just threatened to. Given his public image he's created, most people believe he would bomb the crap out of Iraq, so isn't that the desired effect if you want Iraq to step down?
