basically it was 2 very opposing beliefs with O'Reilly believing we're over in Iraq fighting terrorism

O'Reilly threatened to throw Donahue off the set depending upon his response regarding sending his kids to Iraq. which Donahue was right -- his kid was not going, someone else's kid was going. and this followed a live appearance by Donald Trump who discussed how rebuilding New Orleans will be a waste of money and time if the levees aren't attended to first, and it will become one of the most corrupt processes in history because Bush's credibility level is at an all time low now.
perfect example of how divided this country is on all levels. if we all had adequate information there wouldn't be so much confusion and contradictions.
but as the saying goes as to why we're in Iraq: If you can't explain what you're doing in simple English, you are probably doing something wrong. (Alfred Kahn)
and if that ain't clear enough: Be wary of the man who urges an action in which he himself incurs no risk. (Joaquin Setanti)
