A couple of issues Esmer: First and foremost this is a forum for lighthearted fun and games. The content of your post above is innappropriate and misplaced. I Request that a mod split this thread and move it to the Think Tank where it will be more appropriate.
Second, you are employing an emotional appeal to make your point which is a logical fallacy. You are also using generalization which is another no-no.
Arguments of this ilk are easily countered by either pointing out the inherent fallacies or countering with similiar emotional appeals:
CAUTION: THESS VIDEOS ARE UNSUITABLE VIEWING FOR THE YOUNG OR FAINT OF HEART. The following videos display graphic scenes of torture including Iraqi's being thrown from 3 story buildings onto concrete. Limb, hand and tongue amputations. Breaking of arms. Executions and a cornucopia of many other practices routinely committed under Saddam's regime.
Video 1
Video 2
I would suspect that those in these videos who survived to witness the downfall of Saddam might counter that Bush is indeed a hero to them.
Now, Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. John Stuart Mill

Wow, I really pissed off the Esmer, didn't I?
This is a GAME dude... don't send a caesure after me ok?
I say that GWB is responsible for:
That horrendous TRAFFIC I faced on the 91 Freeway today. (for those of you not in So Cal, the 91 is the most wretched POS excuse for a freeway that there ever was. Believe me.)
