FUCK wasserman, he's a stupid son-of-a-bitch.....and a goddamn lying socialist motherfucker.

I read your article and got a big "laugh". The truth is supposed to set you free....in your case Harvey you need to go back and check your facts and quit telling half-truths. Lenin is attributed to a quote that describes people like you.....a "useful" idiot. Harvey, you are just another "fellow traveler".

Dear Senior Editor Wasserman:

What the heck are you smoking today?...You are off your rocker!! As an Arkansan, your support for the weenie Billy Boy is pathetic...I would have Bush ANY day in the White House over your beloved sicko, phony baloney, hypocrite liar "I did not have sex with that woman" Clinton!!

Get real. You are living in the 60's just like all your other liberal buddies.....the Me Me generation of "if it feels good do it " is trying to belittle conservatives, Christians and anyone else who makes you feel guilty for living an immoral life style. Sorry you just can't figure it out. THE real truth will set you free.....that is why Bush can lead..... and you can't!! Ask the boys in the military who they would rather have as commaner- in -chief and then just sit back and relax. The landing on the carrier was peanuts compared to the extravagance of the Clinton administrations for 8 LONG years. The only way Clinton knows how to fly is smoking it..............

There is no floundering. A whole lot of wishful thinking on your part won't make it so either.

Thank you Mr Wasserman for the outstanding article--I'm 70 and in all my memory no Pres has ever been like Bush--He has lied about everything--I blame the US press for not bringing these lies out in the open--the Brits are holding Blair's feet to the fire--Has anyone checked what Bush is doing to North Korea? what he is doing is the most reckless approch he has adopted to North Korea since comming into office--and Afghanistan is a hair breath from sliding back into warlords--Iran? Let me tell you what it is really about--Bush is in the process of installing a US regime that will privatize the Middle East oil--so it can be turned over to US energy corporations--Kenny Boy of Enron you will never go to jail--but bring a bus load of cash to the 2004 election--Mr Wasserman we cannot have 4 more years of this man--perhaps Old Europe will help get rid of him--haha One can only hope thanks again for the great article--

CPT Iraq Team Report, June 17, 2003

The CPT delegation arrived back in Baghdad after spending 2 days in Basrah, southern Iraq. Team members who had been in Basrah before the recent war were shocked by the extent of the damage caused by U.S./UK bombing of the city.

Many commercial buildings, hotels, and residential areas had been heavily hit. However, they also noted that there were far fewer troops on the streets than in Baghdad and that the soldiers and civilians were more relaxed. On the way back to Baghdad, the delegation attempted to visit Ur, the birthplace of Abraham. However they were denied entry as the site has now been taken over for a U.S. military base. They could see that the famous ziggurat at the site has been defaced. The delegation also stopped at the place on the highway where CPTer George Weber was killed in a road accident on Jan. 6, 2003. Team members Anne Montgomery and Peggy Gish, and Iraqi drivers Sattar and Ismail, who had been with George at the time of the accident, led in a joint service of remembrance.
