>>but I truly believe that he is concerned with human rights and it's quite possible that he was willing to bend the intelligence data in his favor for a greater good...I have no problem with that.  When did being on the side of protecting human rights become such an unpopular position to take?  << 

Here's another song for you Kevin:

"Used to worry about the poor, but I don't worry anymore.

Used to worry about the black man, now I don't worry about the black man.

Used to worry about the starving children of India. Know what I say now about the starving children of India? I say:

Oh, mama. It's money that I love."

Randy Newman, "It's Money that I Love"

Don't think for a minute Kevin that Bush and his co-prevaricators give a rat's ass about human rights except as an excuse du jour for the tragic mess they've made in Iraq. In fact that rationale was fairly late-appearing after the WMD's failed to show their nasty little heads.

How you continue to cling to the wreckage is beyond me.
