Gee Dave you’re on the wrong network.Should have worked something out with NBC since your politics match theirs.

That said I sure wish you’d stop using your show to promote an ideology and aganda.Your mentor Johnny Carson would never have stooped that low.

I’ll be watching Jay and Conan to escape your pointless campaign.

agenda

It was a good show and both Bill and Dave enjoyed themselves. I usually watch Conan instead, but I’m glad I tuned into Letterman this time.

29 of the 50 Democratic senators voted Yes on the Iraq Resolution, which is 58%.( a majority)

82 of the 208 Democratic representatives voted Yes on the Iraq Resolution, which is 39%(obviously not a majority, but that is a large number, not like it was only 3-4%)

Democrats continually voted for increased funding for the war in iraq.

I get so tired of Democrats who continually blame Bush for getting us into two wars without pointing out that 1. We wouldn’t be in Iraq without the large number of Democrat votes, and 2. the deficit caused by said war wouldn’t exist without the continuing support of Democrats voting to increase funding.

BOTH parties got us into the War in Iraq, and BOTH parties continued to vote for increased funding without having the money to pay for it.

AND, Dubya isn’t the only person who was wrong about WMD’s.

I Rather watch The O reilly Factor than Keith olbermann’s show .

Right now Bernie Sanders is filibustering in the senate NOW, you can listen and watch at Thom Hartmann show now. I could not find any where on Fox that this was going on right now to post a comment….. I am not the least bit surprised…. Fox seems to thing “The View, Palin’s ProspectsA” gossip is news…. sad

Or you can go to http://www.bernie.org to listen and watch the Filibuster in the Senate now.

@ Albert

Were you able to find it on any of the other networks? Do you have any words for them?

Well, when he has Bill O’Reilly on his show, what do you expect? The few times I’ve watched his show, I’ve never seen him promote an agenda, unless provoked by someone like O’Reilly.

While I disagree with you on this, good to know there are other Conan fans on this site! Team Coco all the way!

Albert, why am I not surprised that you are a bernie sanders fan. Is he a “road” scholar too?

As we’ve had confirmed via Wikileaks, there most certainly were WMD in Iraq. The “fact” that there wasn’t was and continues to be a lie.

Old Bernie is fighting what he believes in, higher taxes for everybody and a short trip right back into recession.

DorkyMcForkey, how dare you come at the Dems with facts. Their entire belief system is based on emotion so when you throw UNDISPUTED FACTS in their face, they wont allow them to cloud their irrational set of beliefs.

Now! This is how Filibustering should be done! This is the right way to do it,. Not the the republicans have been doing it for years in the Senate by just standing up and saying “I Filibuster” and then leave.

The difference between Bernie Sanders is that he is fighting for the American people unlike the Republican senators who fight for themselves.

Bernie must be a road scholar!

Nope, just a very intelligent man who has morals and scruples. Bernie is a independent.

WRONG! Those were stockpiles of chemical weapons from the Gulf War, things like mustard gas, etc. Those were already known to have existed before the wikileaks cables. A weapon of mass destruction would be a fucking nuclear bomb or something of that nature.

dont know pablo, or dorky, about what leak you are talking about but chemical weapons are WMD,s

I’m not sure what this has to do with the Letterman show regardless get your fact correct.

1. This was a republican ran congress
2. They voted to give Bush the authority to use force if Iraq was a security threat not declare war.

Cheney and Bush spin this as Saddam having weapons of mass destruction and perhaps they really thought that, regardless Iraq was never a security threat to the US. They had no weaponry that could reach the US or even Israel. Two weeks after the invasion Bush declares “mission accomplished”! Here we are 8 years later funding the Iraq war. Bottom line is we had an oil embargo agains Iraq and that would continue as long as Saddam was leading the country. Iraq was always cheap oil prior to the embargo, so you figure it out. Now 4287 dead soldiers, 30182 wounded and billions of dollars later we are stil there. If you don’t believe this a republican war you must be taking some serious mind altering drugs. Yes we still fund it because we have to. The horse is out ob the barn.

One other thing, Bill O. never answered Dave’s question as to why all the possible Republican 2012 presidential candidates exception of Romney are on Fox’s payroll. Again you figure it out.

Bill is always fun to watch when he is not the one calling the shots. He is a great guest.

If that were true don’t you think Bush and Cheney would have made these weapons their Iraqi trophy? If nothing else to justify the means. I am not condoning anything Saddam did. The man got what he deserved, but this is war we should have never gotten in. Powell even warn them against it.

Fact: Powel made the case for the attack against WMD at the UN get your facts straight! He showed all those light plane delivery systems of releasing chemical agents of WMD’s and also about their Nuclear program. Truthless!

As Jon pointed out in the OP, before he made addendum about the war’s making, Dave was asking that if people re-elected Bush because we were at war wouldn’t they do the same for Obama. O’Reilly deflected with the excuse argument, but he didn’t give his opinion on the question.

Just4thefax said:

Because he was ordered to. If you read any interviews of his since he has retired you would know this to be true.

Bush is simply to blame whether we choose to blame him or not.

We can stop blaming him when the following things occur:

1. He accepts responsibility for his mistakes. So far he admitted to two: the Mission Accomplished banner and the Katrina fly over, both of these were superficial. He knowingly let his staff drag this country into a expensive war (both cost and lifes) without cause, but, as we see now, a potential for some personal gain including a shot a re-election.

2. The Iraq was has come to a complete end.

3. The economy and debt has returned to the pre-Bush levels. Who goes to war and at the same time introduces tax cuts that favor the rich?

4. He comes clean on the behind the scenes policies his administration has become known for. eg. always campaigning, shut down all dissention, torture, etc.
