Interesting perspective from Dennis Miller. I don't agree with all of it, but I thought it merits some attention. See what you think.

TRYING TO HELP
By Dennis Miller
All the rhetoric on whether or not we should go to war against Iraq
has got my insane little brain spinning like a roulette wheel. I
enjoy
reading opinions from both sides, but I have detected a hint of
confusion
from
some of you.
As I was reading the paper recently, I was reminded of the best advice
someone ever gave me. He told me about the KISS method ("Keep it
Simple,
Stupid"). So, with this as a theme, I'd like to apply this theory for
those who don't quite get it. My hope is that we can simplify things
a bit
and
recognize a few important facts.
Here are 10 things to consider when voicing an opinion on this
important issue:
1) President Bush and Saddam Hussein.....Hussein is the bad guy.
2) If you have faith in the United Nations to do the right thing,
keep
this in mind. They have Libya heading the Committee on Human Rights
and
Iraq heading the Global Disarmament Committee. Do your own math here.
3) If you use Google Search and type in "French Military
Victories,"
your reply will be "Did you mean French Military Defeats?"
4) If your only anti-war slogan is "No war for oil," sue your school
district for allowing you to slip through the cracks and robbing you
of the
education you deserve.
5) Saddam and Bin Laden will not seek United Nations approval before
they try to kill us.
6) Despite what some seem to believe, Martin Sheen is NOT the
President.
He plays one on T.V.
7) Even if you are anti-war, you are still an "Infidel" and Bin
Laden
wants you dead, too.
8) If you believe in a "vast right-wing conspiracy," but you do not
believe in the danger that Hussein poses, quit hanging out with the
Dell computer dude.
9) We are not trying to liberate them.
10) Whether you are for military action, or against it, our young men
and women overseas are fighting for us to defend our right to speak
out. We
all need to support them without reservation.
