If you could have attended this press conference

[Greylyn58]

and asked the pResident a question, what would you have asked?

For me, it would be: Why didn't you work out a diplomatic solution with Iraq? We know N. Korea has nukes, and according to you so did Iraq, so why are you so willing to work on a diplomatic solution with N. Korea, but not with Iraq? What is the difference between the two countries?

1. No fair!

The answer's too easy.

Oil.

[Greylyn58]

5. True...We know that is the answer

but what would the pResident say is the difference? I'd justlove to hear his rationalization for it. :evilgrin:

8. Mine's at this DU link

"Mr. President, with oil companies reporting record earnings, why don't you just ask them to lower their prices to consumers? Shouldn't you be kissing up to the oil company executives instead of Prince Abdullah?"

2. my question

Now that the Duelfer Report has proven that there weren't any WMDs in Iraq, will you admit that you were wrong?

[KlatooBNikto]

4. He has already answered that question: He could not recall any mistake

he has ever made.

[Greylyn58]

6. He probably thinks the report wasn't real

after all he lives in the twilight zone.

3. Exactly!

I was yelling at the reporter to ask that as a follow up to his N. Korea question.

7. I'd of challanged his dates on "solvency" and "bankruptcy".

He said "SS would start paying out more than it takes in in 2017, and would be completely bankrupt by 2041."

I'd of asked:

"If your 'personal accounts' were implimented, wouldn't the 'pay out more than it takes in' date be pushed up 12 years to 'right now'?"

...followed by

"You said 'SS will be bankrupt by 2041', but the SS Admin themselves say that, even if absolutely nothing were done, we could still pay between 70 and 80 percent of benefits, which is certainly not 'bankrupt'. So why are you claiming it would be 'bankrupt'?"

9. You've sent our poorest to die in a foreign country for no

apparent reason, you've given our newborns thousands of dollars in debt, you've divided our country almost beyond repair. Tell me, Mr. President, why do you hate America?

[Greylyn58]

10. Oooo....that's a good one! I like that!!! n/t :- )

11. Oh, oh, oh...I've got one...
