they still had them?There is no direct connection between Iraq and Al
Qaida, the people who attacked us unlike the terrorist training camps in
Afghanastan that were directly responsible for 911.However the mission
in Iraq must be completed as it has been started and to leave now would cause
great harm.I am a democrat but I didn't vote for my party's nominee for
president as Kerry and his VP candidate Edwards both voted to give Bush the
authority for war but they then voted against certain key supplies the troops
needed in the field. That was irresponsible.If I had been a senator, in
absence of more information than I have, I would have voted against the initial
military option but I would have voted in favor of the troops getting the
supplies they need in the field once the decision had been made.It is
the job of congress to scrutinize military action as it is their authority
because "congress shall declare war." They don't just rubber stamp what the
president wants to do.But once the decision is made and it is for war,
congress needs to not be critical of the president's policies as it undermines
the mission.|

signed to fight Wlad Klitschko on Sept 24th. This fight will be for IBF #1 and
will be very interesting. Peter has a huge punch, but his chin has never been
tested. Wladimir hs proven that his chin is weak but he has tons of offensive
firepower. I think Peter will land a punch and it will be over in the first 4
rounds. He is one of the best pure punchers in the last 20 years of the
heavyweight division. I'm merrily on to other subjects, let's see who has the
knowledge to join me.|

more time, either going to Iraq was the right thing to do, or it wasn't. If
removing Saddam was the right thing to do, then we were right for going to war.
If NOT removing him from power and letting him continue his regime was the best
path, then we made a mistake by invading. Once again, we cannot be wrong for
going to war but right for removing Saddam from power. You can't have it both
ways. John Kerry, who was for, then against, then for, then against (depending
on what audience he was speaking to and the mood he was in) tried to tell us it
was the wrong war, in the wrong place at the right time, but it's a good thing
Saddam is out of power. Joe and Agnes Average America, smarter than most give
them credit for, smelled a rat and they didn't vote FOR Bush, they voted AGAINST
Kerry. Kent, I'm registered Republican and usually lean that way, though I've
voted for Democrats and Independents. Lately though, the Democratic leadership
is so out of step with what I know to be common sense, I don't see myself voting
for them in a National election anytime soon, unless major changes take place.
Solid centerist Dems like Sam Nunn, Morris Udall, etc., seem to have been
overrun by looney tunes. |

Fan, please have the guts to say things yourself. You won't answer
reasonable questions asked of you, but please, if you want to slag me, deliver
it personally. It's more than mere coincidence that as soon as you had the need
to slag someone, this Italian Stallion guy was created. One of the most
intelligent and knowledgable posters on this site is the complete gentleman
Massimo. He never blows his own trumpet, and unlike Kent, he isn't a know-it-
all. On the one hand, Massimo's knowledge is thorough and, guess what, he's
probably never been to a fight in person other than in Rome. (Using Kent's
yardstick that means he knows nothing.) On the other, reading Kent is like being
hit with a wet, warm lettuce wielded by someone desperate to project his own
perceived self-importance. I've learnt things on this site reading
Massimo, Angelo, Steve, and a few others like Howard. Being honest, I've never
learnt anything from Kent. Nothing. Some of Kent's comments are so silly they
defy logic, especially regarding the fights Frazier ducked. I've learnt from Fan
that ignorance is more widespread than I had feared. I've also learnt from Fan
