Surf, actually Sean is heading down to Australia to fix the strength of the Aussie dollar he is that god damn good!!!
What is this guy thinking? Is he really that incredibly stupid to allow himself to be used in that manner? Dumbass Spicolli!
You know what is just as funny? Dubya proclaiming over and over that Iraq does without evidence. Another funny (though really quite sad) is trying to find a misplaced comma or two in a 12,000 page report to justify the war he longs for. More seriously, maybe Sadam would fail to report some chemical weapons ,perhaps an honest mistake, but we would know he has them because we sold them to him.
OK, I'll admit that I don't know much about the Iraq Daily, I'm guessing it's not the most anti-Hussein newspaper out there. I could be wrong. What I read the other day about Penn was a very interesting article about someone who seem good hearted about wanting to prevent a war...not someone who's anti-American. What would y'all say if the Iraq Daily said that Bush was lying?
How exactly do you know the president has no evidence? I'm pretty sure he has a little more data available to him than Sean Penn.
Come on Traj.....are you the only poster here that doesn't know Glynch isn't broadcasting from Earth?
I'm certain that they showed everything to Sean Penn and then were doing tequila shooters with him all night. He doesn't need misplaced commas when there are both chemical and biologic agents that the UN MANDATED Saddam account for which are now conveniently "missing." The "let's blame the US" flavor of the month everybody. Thanks glynch...you have more stale flavors than Baskin-Robbins.
Look, you can insult glynch if you want. You can insult me if you have to. When you insult the good people at Baskin-Robbins, well sir you have gone too far!
Damn...pushed the envelope too far. Sorry about that...I was always partial to "Baseball Nut" myself.

There is evidence from before about Iraqi WMD, but they have not accounted for them.

I think its quite silly for a movie star to proclaim a country not to have WMD when he does not have the background, scientific knowledge or any other specific skill that would help him determine this. I do however feel that his letter is out of a love for his country and his true wishes to save lives and I don't see anything funny about that. I think what is quite sick sometimes is that people can talk about war and "take em out" , "nuke em" etc from behind their computer so non-chalantly when we are talking about the lives of millions and millions of people. This isn't the movies, these are real lives and what I want is public, HARD evidence that Iraq has WMD. As seen in September 11th, the world is changing and as is technology. Upset individuals can cause a significant amount of harm. We cannot keep technology, whether nuclear or otherwise out of the hands of others forever. That being said, we should make sure that there is a true reason like we are about to be attacked by Iraq that we attack these people. What I don't want is another war-torn nation's children growing up watching U.S. bombs destroy their lives and then turning into anti-US terrorists. I want hard evidence. I want true evidence and I believe in a karma of sorts that actions that we do ( we because it is our government, a people's government ) should reflect our ideology and our honor. Until that times comes, I don't think we should run around attacking countries on a pre-emptive notion because we will just be creating more minds infected with a hatred of the United States.
What about evidence that is good enough for the UN Security Council? Because those heads of state would be complete idiots to tell the people EVERYTHING they know. It could compromise the world's ability to counteract Saddam. Because there are so many Vietnamese terrorists that have attacked us since 1975.
Dubya and his neocon handlers claim a link between Iraq , Al Qaeda or 9-ll. Where's the evidence? The CIA complains that Rumsfeld and gang are pressuring them to produce doctored evidence. You guys claim to be in favor of American style freedoms, but you get incensed vilify as a traitor Sean Penn, an American citizen exercises his legal right to travel to Iraq and exercise his freedom of speech, just because it goes against your loyalty to the Republican Party. Hey the vast majority of the world is against your war. Approximately 40% in this country (I guess you need to call them Hanoi Janes )and40% in Britain. Strong majorities in Gemany, France, Russia, Italy, Japan oppose your war.. 1.6 billion Muslims worldwide are against what the neocon around Bush want to turn into a war of civilizations against Muslims. More and more even our allies dislike us. We have a growing deficit and a President who doesn't have the balls to fess up to the costs of the war and raise taxes. Yet you all believe that we have a jolly outcome. You predict just a few hundred casuaties to the all volunteer army, who are largely working class kids recruited often from high school ROTC programs in poor neighborhoods. Who cares? We are all college graduates who didn't need the military for college expenses or as a career. It's just an interesting news story with some managed video clips, yellow ribons, patriotic choreography sp? at the Super Bowl half- time,fantasies of a greater Israel supported by democracies in the Muslim world. But don't mention Bush/ Cheney oil deals or Karl Rove's "maintaining a positive issue environment".
How about changing that to: Sean Penn Ed Begley, Jr. Any actor named Arquette Any actor named Baldwin Ed Asner Just wouldn't want to bomb the non-actor Arquettes and Baldwins. B
I have read hundreds of your posts, and from the style and content of your latest offering one thing stands out. You are drunk. Not just tipsy, but hammered. Come on, you would never misspell words and structure sentences like this. Admit your excess, vomit, and come back tomorrow. By the way, there is no way Sean Penn can determine if Iraq is a threat to the United States, so quit defending his dumb ass.
