While the whole world knows that the reasons given for starting the war in Iraq were totally untrue, we as Americans would like NOW to know the real reason. — Effie V. French Dec 13, 05:29 PM #

When a leader of a democracy tricks his country into a war, or any other policy, that leader is mocking democracy. If “we the people” don’t correct this, we are, in effect, forfeiting our democracy. — Wendy M. Wood Dec 14, 12:14 AM #
It is time to remove our valuable military personnel out of harm’s way for this war that is specifically to line the pockets of the already-wealthy oil corposrations.
Let’s remove our military NOW! — Rita Kiley Dec 14, 02:11 AM #
Yes, you are right we must stand up and fight this evil war. Sometimes I know it feels like we can’t make a difference because we are just one person, but when we join to together united to get the truth out about this evil War, we become like a roaring river that can’t be stop because one person united with many others is powerful.
No more War for Israel. Our troops shouldn’t become cannon-fodder for Israel. — Mary Dec 14, 10:55 AM #
Enough lives have been lost for oil, please bring the troops home now and spend the “peace dividend” on developing alternative energy sources. — Ralph Walraven Dec 15, 12:41 AM #
Your ego probably makes you think you are a very important person who will go down in history. You will go down in history as an example of everything a person should not be. Christian! Get real. I served and was never a wartime deserter like anyone who didn’t show up for duty during, say the Vietnam War. Then you called a retired 30 year ?56 year old veteran grandmother back into service! Why didn’t you use the opportunity and take her place in this war you believe in so much? I know, you didn’t get enough milk when you were younger. Maybe someone will read this to you but I seriously doubt you will understand. Stop lying, get our troops out of your ego war, and resign! — c Pierce Dec 15, 06:50 PM #

The bible explained that you should not lie. Don’t you follow the bible? — Matthew Goldstein Dec 21, 01:29 PM #
By spying on me and my fellow Americans I realize I am far less safe now than I was when I only had to worry about foreign terrorists. Your actions as president horrifies me. — Brooks Best Dec 21, 01:38 PM #
Why are you bent on destroying the United States? You will go down in history as the absolute worst President this country has ever had, even worse than Nixon. You are shameless in your lies, your corruption, your use of dirty tricks for personal political gain. You have brought the reputation of our country to an all time low, and your policies are aggressively destroying this country. Please resign, and take your corrupt and immoral staff with you. PLEASE!!! — Glenn Andersen Dec 21, 01:38 PM #
TELL BUSH TO STOP PLAYING FAST AND LOOSE WITH THE TRUTH — KEN BUTLER Dec 21, 01:41 PM #
No one is above the law, not even the President and Vice President. Bush is the President, not King of America. It’s past time he wakes up to reality and realizes that! — Delina Blanchett Dec 21, 01:42 PM #
Bush is taking advantage of his ill gotten office of the president. He is not above the law. — Diane McCullough Dec 21, 01:51 PM #

someone apparently isn't screening the comments.
Does the Bible ever say "Thou shalt not lie"?
The commandment in the Ten Commandments (quoted also in the Gospels) is not to bear false witness against someone else. That's a narrower obligation than that of never telling an untruth. If a Nazi had knocked on the door of a Polish peasant's house in 1943 and asked him if he knew where any Jews were hiding, would Goldstein have wanted the peasant to tell the truth regardless of the consequences?
"I have four grandsons and one granddaughter. Three of them are almost draft age. God help us if they become cannon-fodde"
WELL...TELL THEM NOT TO SIGN UP FOR THE MILITARY AND THEN YOU WON'T HAVE TO WORRY! THERE ISN'T A DRAFT MORON!
"Enough lives have been lost for oil"
NOT THAT I BELIEVE WE WENT TO WAR FOR OIL...BUT LETS JUST SUPPOSE WE DID...SO WHAT?? WHAT BETTER REASON TO GO TO WAR! APPARENTLY THESE PEOPLE HAVE FAILED TO NOTICE..BUT WITH THE RISING AND FLUXUATING COSTS OF FUEL OUR ENTIRE UNITED STATES ECONOMY WAS THROWN INTO A DOWNWARD SPIRAL...LIKE IT OR NOT OUR ENTIRE ECONOMY,THUS OUR ENTIRE WAY OF LIVES BALANCE ON THE PRICE OF OIL...SO, I'D SAY A WAR FOR CHEAP OIL WOULD BE AS SOUND A REASON AS ANY!
"The bible explained that you should not lie. Don’t you follow the bible?"
NOW, WHY HAS IT BECOME ACCEPTABLE AS COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT THE PRESIDENT LIED ABOUT GOING TO WAR?? LAST I KNEW HE DIDN'T LIE, HE ONLY WENT WITH THE INFORMATION HE HAD AND IF THE INTELLIGENCE WAS WRONG THAT DOESN'T MAKE HIM A LIAR!
"You have brought the reputation of our country to an all time low, and your policies are aggressively destroying this country"
OH..I'M SORRY...THAT HONOR HAS ALREADY BEEN RESERVED BY PRESIDENT BLOW JOB CLINTON!
#83 is mine. Enjoy it before they pull it.
You go, girl!
I agree with all that. It's a good thing we're not face to face with them, isn't it? ;-)
Good find. I am #81 - Mary Jo Kopechne
Effie, Roger, Donald, Martha Jo, Wendy, Rita, Mary, Ralph, c Pierce, Matthew, Brooks, Glen, Ken; and the rest of you know who you are. The senator has put you in grave danger by exposing your names and sentiments. As I write this, W is personally on his way to get you. Don't feel smug that some of your last names were not included. Some of the super secret stuff figured that out when one of Kennedy's staff faxed the information to Joe Conason.
Our own antenna here at Free Republic picked up the signal with your whereabouts just before we heard them say "Lets Roll" over at the White House.
Dang that was quick. I guess they are screening the submissions.
I have a cousin who e-mails me these comments (almost identical to the ones from the DU) nearly every day. I no longer react, hoping she'll stop. They are ALL alike, the looney left. Not an original thought amongst them.
Any reason not to add our own comments to the petition?
Oops, they pulled it.
Best comment in the thread at tedkennedy.com:
#88 Teddy lied while I died.
— Mary Jo Kopechne Dec 21, 02:52 PM #
I'm 95 for the time being.
Heywood Jablome hasn't commented there yet I see....I'm sure he would but I'm at work.
Oh, everyone's Kopechne comments are getting pulled?
Ted Kennedy hates the First Amendment and free speech. We already knew he hated religion, er, at least, Christianity.
Are these people posting their real names? If so, they really are idiots. Don't the know Dick Cheney is monitoring all of their internet communications?
A preposterous fake. No helicopter could handle a load that size. ;)
Having Bush as your President is better than having Teddy as your chauffeur or John-John as your pilot.

Oopsie - I guess the Mods didn't care for that pic!!
