Golly gee I am sick and tired of the inability of the chattering
liberals to recognize one rather important fact . . .

THERE IS EVIL IN THE WORLD.

Why is there always some rush to provide a reason for bad behavior? 
People are not inherently good.  People are trained to be good by the
rest of us who have already been taught to be good.

NO, WE ALL DON'T TRY TO LIVE IN PEACE.  As long as there are evil
people such as Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, Slobodan Milosevic, Kim
Jong Il, Stalin, Hitler . . . there will be a need for good people to
stand up to them.

Saddam Hussein started this whole mess when he invaded Kuwait.  We
kicked him out of Kuwait, and he AGREED to a set of conditions to end
that war.  He is choosing NOT to obey that agreement.  If we cave in and
come to some agreement, he will ignore it.

The question is simple: do we stop him, or appease him.  Had Europe
stood up to Hitler at a comparable stage in Germany's development WWII
would likely not have happened, or it would have been shorter and less
bloody.  Had the US government stopped bin Laden after the first World
Trade Center bombing, September 11 would not have happened.

I struggle to see how someone who thinks (rather than feels) and
applies the lessons paid for by the blood of our brothers and sisters
and parents and grand-parents can not come to the conclusion that
Hussein must be stopped.
