Hot off the all seeing web!
YOU CAN'T ARGUE WITH FACTS
There were 39 combat related deaths in Iraq during the month of January, while there were 35 murders in the fair city of Detroit (Michigan) during that same month. Imagine that. Detroit’s criminals killed just as many Americans as all the terrorists in the entire war torn country of Iraq!
Worst president in history?
Liberals claim President Bush shouldn't have started this war. They complain about the way he has prosecuted it. One liberal recently claimed Bush was the worst president in U.S. history. Let's clear up one point: President Bush didn't start the war on terror. Democrats should try to remember that the terrorists started it … BEFORE 9/11.
Let's look at the "worst" president and mismanagement claim. Consider that:
FDR led us into World War II. Germany never attacked us. Japan did. From 1941-1945, 450,000 lives were lost, an average of 112,500 per year.
Truman finished that war and started one in Korea. North Korea never attacked us. From 1950-1953, 55,000 lives were lost, an average of 18,333 per year.
John F. Kennedy started the Vietnam conflict in 1962. Vietnam never attacked us. Lyndon Johnson turned Vietnam into a quagmire. From 1965-1975, 58,000 lives were lost in Vietnam, an average of 5,800 per year.
Clinton went to war in Bosnia without UN, or French, consent! Bosnia never attacked us.
Clinton was offered Osama bin Laden's head on a platter three times by Sudan and did nothing. Osama attacked us on multiple occasions during Clinton's administration. Many believe that Clinton's failure to strike al Qaeda after these attacks was the main weakness that allowed 9/11.
In only two years since the terrorists attacked us on his watch, President Bush has liberated two countries, crushed the Taliban, crippled al-Qaeda, put nuclear inspectors in Libya, Iran, and North Korea without firing a shot, captured a terrorist who slaughtered 300,000 of his own people, and Osama bin Laden has either been killed or gone to ground and hasn't been seen for over a year. We've lost 1000 soldiers, an average of 350 a year. Bush did all this abroad while preventing another terrorist attack here at home. Worst president in history? Come on!
The Democrats are complaining about how long the war is taking, but ...
Janet Reno took longer to conquer the Branch Davidian compound than President Bush took to conquer Iraq. Branch Davidian was a 51 day operation.
Hillary Clinton took longer to find her Rose Law Firm billing records than we've been looking for WMD in Iraq.
Teddy Kennedy took longer to call the police after he killed Mary Jo Kopoekne at Chappaquiddic than it took the 3rd Infantry Division and the Marines to destroy the Medina Republican Guard.
Democrats took more time to count the votes in Florida than President Bush took to conquer Iraq!!!!
Our military is pretty terrific, isn't it? And, maybe Dubya is a pretty good president, after all, regardless of what the Democrats are trying to say.
