Right wing conservatives hold political beliefs with which you do not agree.

You find them equally scary...really?

Each of them got 3,000 of our population killed in the last decade. I'm not sure that statistically they are any less dangerous.

Who are the 3000 that the conservatives killed?[/quote]

I am not the PP but I think she is referencing servicemen and women killed in the Iraq war. Some estimates are well above 3,000.
[/quote]Yeah, thank George Bush and Dick Cheney for that![/quote]

And all of the many Democrats as well as Republicans in Congress who supported the war, including Hilary Clinton. I am a Democrat, but it is silly to blame the Iraq war solely on Bush/Cheney. Few Democrtas had the courage to vote against the funding of the war in particular.[/quote]Pp here. Oh, I agree with you on that. Both Democrats and Republicans were spineless and deserve our contempt. But the leadership came from Bush and Cheney, who also managed to convince the majority of Americans that Saddam was behind 9/11.  (Nothing like saying: "9/11, never again!" and then showing Saddam's picture and making the case for invasion. No they never actually [i]said[/i] Saddam engineered 9/11 but they knew perfectly well that that was the message Americans took away from that.) Without their leadership, this wouldn't have happened.  Gore would not have invaded Iraq, for example.  So Bush and Cheney are the biggest villains in my book.[/quote]

Agreed[/quote]
