With nukes at one point. At NO POINT IN TIME DID THEY EVER HAVE CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE THAT IRAN HAD NUCLEAR (NOO KLEER for the idiots)CAPABILITY. AT <em><strong>NO</strong></em> TIME. But what the hell, they had nothing on Hussein either. Ari Fleischer is an asskissing liar, nothing more. I don't know why Bush even had a press secretary. The bastards never had anything of truth to utter anyway. tedbohne N321MM@msn.com All Bush did was threaten the Iranians. With nukes at one point.

This mouthpiece for Geroge, sang Georges praises, whilst lying like a sidewalk throughout his career. I guess he noticed his toothpaste was working anymore and was tire of gargling with napalm for the countless lies he expectorated and deserted George. Only to be followed by three others one of which died lying for George. Damn Fleischer anyway. tedbohne N321MM@msn.com It is idiotic to witness all these former Bush Stooges running around the country as a cheer team for poor, poor George who wrecked the economy drove the US into the worst economic hole in US history, with no knowledge of things military, listened to two other mutts, Wolfowitz and Cheney the authors of this ridiculous plan in 1992, and know, Ari Fleischer.

Bush Invades Afganistan, pre emptive war and occupation of Iraq. Iran pursues Nukes because they see that Bush would not enter Pakistan ans needed a "permission slip". Because Pakistan unlike afganistan and Iraq who did not have nukes. Pakistan does. In reality, I give George Bush credit for Iran and North Korea’s nuke weaponizing ambitions.

I agree that it is very presumative (of Mr. Fleischer) to think that Iranians where in any way affected by President Bush's policies. The vast majority of Iranians never read or see any news that is not controlled by their government. They DO know how much they are suffering under that same government. Yet, despite my disagreement, I don't see the point in personally attacking Mr. Fleischer. How can you be so concerned with the so-called "rigged" elections of 2000 and 2004 (the Supreme Court begs to differ), yet have no concerns over the ACORN cover up regarding the last election? Did you not see footage of armed thugs threatening voters? You refer to Fox News as "Faux News". I'd ask why if I thought an erudite answer was forthcoming. Or even better; from someone who actually watches the network as opposed to regurgitating negative opinions found on web sites such as this one. I suppose I will log back on in a few days and laugh at the typical verbal abuse directed at me because I disagree with the immature, factually incorrect, personal attacks listed above. You of course have the right to vent. But that won't eradicate the fact that your disparaging comments will only serve to lessen your credibility. How funny.
