In Bush’s press conference today, crazy-crazy Helen Thomas asked why we went to war. Has everyone really forgot the reasons for the Iraq war already? In case you did, here they are:
THE REASONS FOR THE WAR IN IRAQ
* We suspected Saddam had WMDs, and were as disappointed as everyone else when we found out he was just talking big.
* Iraq has conspired with terrorist organizations, and, frankly, we don’t like those. No, sir, we don’t like them one bit.
* Couldn’t stand Saddam and just couldn’t wait to chase out of his fancy-smancy palaces into a hole in the ground.
* The Iraqi people – at least those not trying to blow us up – want freedom… if they know what’s good for them! :: shakes fist ::
* Iraq is right next to Syria and Iran, and everyone knows they’re our real targets.
And, of course, the main reason for war…
Oiiiiiiiiil! Hey, if Halliburton wants a war, then Halliburton gets a war, foo’.
Now that we went back over the reasons for war, let’s get back to winning it.

FIRST!!!!
Helen Thomas has forgotten why we are in Iraq. But I bet she hasn’t forgotten that Pres. Bush didn’t let her ask a question at a press conference a couple of years ago. WAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Ha! Our plan is working! Distract Bush by sending a dirigible attack-ship deep into the capitalist-dog’s den of White House! Do NOT offend the mighty Graf Helen lest ye be stricken by her journoflatulism and die a thousand deaths! Oh! The humanity!
Dick needed some testing done on some new weapons systems for his upcoming hunting trip with Helen Thomas . . .
We didn’t go to war for oil, we went for melange (spice): “He who controls the spice controls the universe.”
In a major blunder, the CIA mistranslated “Saddam” as “sandworm”. Based on this faulty intelligence, and having just listened to a book-on-tape of “Dune”, Bush sent in the troops.
I heard Rush saying that Helen Thomas said she’d kill herself if Cheney ran for pres… gives me an idea for a Cheney in ’08 t-shirt.
you are an idiot. you only listen to what people tell you, (but of course only if you want to be in “their club”) do some independent research
When does the President get to ask Helen Thomas some questions, starting with: “Why do you look like that?”
kat,
For us on the right it IS all about independent research because we don’t have the luxury of relying on the antique media to give us the facts on anything from the war to how Dick Cheney’s last checkup went. It’s easy to be smug when you have Hollywood and every major news outlet stroking you and feeding your head, but we’ve upset your little daisy chain and insence world, haven’t we? Hold on, Hannity’s saying something…yes master, I hear and obey…
Who’s club?…you have a club? you know what? your right, I only listen to what ppl tell me….I’m doing it at this moment by acknowledging you….so, can I be in your club now?
I wanna be in Frankj’s head club!!! or is that, I wanna club Frankj’s head?? Dammit! I keep having flashbacks of RWD’s seal clubbing article!
Helen Thomas seems like a skanky old bag…you know in that really ugly kind of way…or is it just me?
Is this what all liberal will end up looking like when they get to 150 years old?
Actually, they all start to look like Hilary Clinton
What does Hillary look like at 150, Jimmy Carter? This is a bad dream, I’ve got to wake up.
Evil makes you ugly. Look what it did to the Emperor.
Forget clubbing baby seals; let’s club kats!
Maybe kat is a member of code pink’s independant research team…
I have always held the position that we need Donald Rumsfeld as press secretary. He wouldn’t take that kind of crap, and it would have stopped when the media was still focusing on Afghanistan. He’s a tough old guy, and he could probably handle both jobs at once. If not, the war on terror would probably be more popular if we replaced him, since the press always gets so upset over “war crimes”….friggin killjoys.
Teach war. It’s what works.
Or you can go with compromise, like the Missouri Compromise or that deal that gave Hitler the Sudatenland. That worked out pretty great. Oops…
Rumsfeld for President!
AND Press Secretary!
AND Secretary of Defense!
At the same time!
Chomps for VP!
Kat for Official Chomps Clean-up Specialist (Dog-Log Squad)
Get out the vote, time’s a-wastin’
Oh, forgot Helen Thomas.
OK,
Helen Thomas for Official State Mummy!
kat’s just jealous cuz the voices in my head like me better.
plus i hear whisls
kat so wonderfully illustrated what is wrong with the left and their ilk. They don’t listen to what other people tell them. They do research…. in the windmills of their minds apparently. But even more important, they make character slurs whenever they can’t prove their point by logic and facts.
Today’s Democratic Party Slogan should be: The Democratic Party, where we NEVER confuse the issue with facts.
Why we went to war in Iraq … seriously, we weren’t willing to ASSUME Saddam had no W.M.D.’s.
Similarly, recently the news weather guy here said it was gonna rain, so I brought my umbrella. When it didn’t rain, that meant the news weather guy was a LIAR!! And my bringing my umbrella was such a horrible WASTE!!
All these crybaby hippies were saying at the onset..”it’s a war for oil..” well… where is my $1 a gallon gas at you liberal /hippie slime? We won, start shipping oil over on tankers, time to bring home the spoils of the war. harr… (pirate sound)
At Helen Thomas’ Age, I’m amazed she can remember we are at war. Or that she is part of the White House Press Corps. Or the Alphabet.
