> [@BikerFry](#): > > This is a bad idea. Agreeing to debate Iran would be like playing tug-of-war with your dog: The people who support the activity don’t understand that it’s challenging dominance. Iran is threatening the world with nuclear weapons and the world’s dominant superpower/peace-keeper is going to agree to take part in their challenge?? NO! The US with the UN’s support says that Iran cannot produce nuclear weapons! Iran submits and does not produce Nuclear weapons! Fin! Done! No negotiating! No debates! But duhh… there using it for the “power” :bloat: ---

They wouldn’t have even challenged us if we didn’t have such a weak president. ---

Who was president in 1998, when Iraq totally stopped cooperating with the United Nations Special Commission and International Atomic Energy Agency as required by UN Resolution 687 of 1991? Who was in office while Iraq ignored UN resolution 1284 of 1999, calling for continual international monitoring of their WMD and ballistic missiles? Who actually enforced these resolutions that were passed to ensure the world’s safety from a country that had proven itself and violent and agressive? ---

> [@JEG](#): > > reason we were so good under clinton is becuase he cut military spending, he did nothing. He rode to .com wave and got bjs all day. If I am wrong, then tell me what he did to make us in the “surplus”. Everybody loves to say he was great for it but when asked how they are mute as a stone. so would you rahter have a president that actually does something, or one that sits there and “looks cool”. And what about the bomings that happened under Clinton. the U.S.S. Cole and plenty other terrorist attacks. He again did nothing. Also, he had Bin Laden in custody multipal times, and said each time he is not a threat… yeah, he was amazing. No. If you really want to know why the economy took off, its because Clinton and his economic team, starting with Secretary of the Treasury Lloyd Bentsen, were geniuses. When they first got into office, they raised taxes on the rich and cut spending, as opposed to bush who did the opposite on both counts. They knew that paying down the debt causes the bond market, which i should note is bigger than the stock market, to take off. The rich people that were paying a bit more in taxes were also making a shitload more on their investments, and everything took off. They spent/invested the extra money, everything boomed, everyone was happy. A little tax raise primes the pump and everyone makes more money. Fast forward to 2000. Bush decides to increase spending x5273562985, and lower taxes, mainly on corporations and rich people. This sends the debt through the roof, and makes the government borrow a lot more. more government borrowing is very bad. This fucks up the bond market, which fucks up the stock market and causes unemployment to rise, and means that the government is now spending money on interest that they should be spending on services. To make matters worse, bush tells the international community to go fuck themselves, so everybody hates us. All the political capital we got from clinton = out the window. Now we’re spending billions and billions on killing the same people we got pissed at saddam for killing. sweet. they don’t teach advanced economic theory in math 92 😛 cliff notes: Doing something right (clinton) \> doing nothing \> doing something wrong (bush) ---

> [@Joe](#): > > cliff notes: Doing something right (clinton) \> doing nothing \> doing something wrong (bush) doing something is always better than doing nothing… especially in a situation with iraq… the man uses weapons on his own fucking people, what is stopping him from trying to use them on the US. Personally i live in the US and i would prefer not to be running around in a gas mask all day long in fear of gas attacks, when no one does anything about sadam and gets enough funding and research to send something our way… Fuck that the man is a nut case. I’m glad we marched in there to rip him out of office, and killed his sons, cause i’ll be damned if i ever have to don that mask in 8 seconds again… [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/think-bush-will-debate/16642.md?page=2)
