how do you know who is right when it comes to the situation in Iraq?

It is a matter of opinion and of view point, don't you agree?

They didn't ask about anything as general as "the situation in Iraq", they asked about three very specific facts: Whether evidence of links between Iraq and al Qaeda have been found, whether weapons of mass destruction have been found in Iraq, and whether world public opinion favored the US going to war with Iraq.

No links between Iraq and al Qaeda have been found, as confirmed by the recent report of the Senate Intelligence Commitee Senate Intelligence Committee , even Bush admits that WMDs were not found, and the opposition of world opinion can be easily shown by the polls that were taken at the time.

NRA (Ted) I once saw a report that claimed that every news agency was using the terms liberal and conservative. It found, that with the exception of Fox news the term conservative was used negatively over 70% of the time. The same report claimed that Fox did not use the term Liberal as a negative term. I don't remember the source and it could be bias. But I remember thinking it was pretty clean at the time.

My predictions: Republicans retain control in all. Why do I think this? I am basing my assumptions on the 2004 elections. In 2004 the media told me that Kerry was so far ahead that a Republican should not even go out and vote. I think the swing was about 15% off.

Was the media attempting to influence the elections? I don't know. I am one of those that thinks the media will go after everything. However, I did just read a report of the editor for the LA Times who claimed he was bias and did try to influence attitudes toward the Democrats. I am not going to try and find this source, but I heard it from BOR (yes I know everyone hates him).

I only know the issues of my area, and don't pretend to know every issue with every candidate. But I think its amazing that since Bush has been in office the R's have controlled the House, Senate, Govoners, President and now IMO the Supreme Court.

I also am in total agreement with J. Many of you seem to not know the issues of your officials and just vote the party line. Good Job America. And you wonder why we have people who live here like ......... i'll stop now.

say goodnite folks.
