You're probably referring to the Coalition's invasion of Iraq. If you believe that Iraq would be better off with Saddam Hussein in control, that's what you believe. <BR/><BR/>Although the Chamberlain reference inevitably involves Hitler, the point I intended to make was that attempting to appease aggressors is a strategy with a history of dubious success. <BR/><BR/>As for Bush and Cheney being like the Devil incarnate: I've heard that before. <BR/><BR/>Recently, an otherwise-reasonable adult referred to Bush as "diabolical." <BR/><BR/>The virulent hatred of President Bush that I've seen in the last four years is unlike anything in my experience, with the possible exception of how some liberals reacted to President Nixon, after Watergate.Brian H.

Take a good lo...The hypocrisy here is unbelivable. Take a good look in the mirror. If you want to condemn Putin and Medvedev you are entitled to. But what do you have to say about Bush and Cheney? Not only did they invade another nation, but they also planted a permanent occupational force there and deposed the old regime in favor of a more friendly one - something the Soviets have yet to do. To compare Putin and Medvedev to Hitler, nothing short of the Devil incarnate can be used in a comparison with Bush and Cheney.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
