Gotta have somebody there for the grateful Iraqis to hug...

What have you done besides complain?

He's lost the urge to surge.

Laughed my ass off at the incompetence of this Administration and its clueless adherents, Eric.
On a daily basis.

What is the big Os position on this? Speak to me oh sweet pullout lips.

16 months Sniper. Now I know 100,000 troops died under Clinton during that length of time, but we can hope Obama will be like Bush, where no one ever died.

btw, McBush is now being advised by the same delusional neo-clowns who helped Bush fuck up big time in Iraq. If he gets elected, better start learning Farsi or mandarin, depending on which side of the Mississippi you live on.

Nor, you change the number on every post you do. I thought it was 2 million a couple days ago.

It seems like it's spanish for my piece of the US.

How much longer are we going to prop up the government of Iraq? We have won, they have lost.

America, defending losers till the bitter end.

Sniper-what was the figure? The two million, according to you, was over his entire Presidency. I was just using Vernon's calculator to compare the figures.
Thank God no American in the miliary has died since January 2001.

Bush will keep troop level at 140,000 and so will either obama or hillary, it's just that they won't tell you until after you cast your vote for them.

For Obama it'll go something like this. We were all hoping that conditions on the ground would change but as I stated throughout my campaign, and you can check the recored, I stated that it would be silly to try to predict what the conditions on the ground would be a year or a year and a half out. I, as much as any American help hope that things would change and that we could begin bringing the troops home. However, at this critical stage it would be irresponsible to hastily withdrawl at this time. In the meantime we should all hope that the Iraqi government will take the necessary steps to make the changes that will provide the conditions necessary to bring home the troops.

Thank you.
And God bless America.

And now a word from our sponsor.

Al Gore here, you've all known for some time now that the planet is ready to eat us alive if we don't take quick and precise actions to thwart this climate change beast. Now I know some of you are freezing your ass off from a much unexpected earlier than normal winter cycle.

we can always re-instate the draft if more troops
are needed

So, we won't get back to pre 'surge' levels. At least violence is down to late 2005 rounded another corner levels.

When are the Iraqis going to start chipping in with their surpluses to fund the war...police...whatever it is? We're borrowing from Communist China to fight whatever it is we're fighting now.

Oh, and 20% of the oil is being stolen

we can always re-instate the draft if more troops are needed



No it's cheaper and more functional to hire more mercenaries.

It seems Bush has taken troop levels off the table as a means of establishing progress in Iraq. Add it to the waste bin with the other criteria, but remember to empty the damned thing at some point.

So where's the bar down to now? Success to the Right is neither President amandapajamas or osama bin laden not being declared Iraqi Emperor for Eternity.

Hell Northguy the Bar is so low in these Bushites world You couldn't slip a sheet of Notebook Paper under it. Their Guts must be just aching right about now. Know what I mean??

Those 140,000 troops ain't never coming home -- not with Bush
or any other Republican president sitting in the White House.

The money's not coming back either. All $510,154,665,932 of it ( as of this posting )

Update: Now it's $510,154,934,710

Apocalypto,

The money hasn't even been spent yet. Just borrowed. We still have to pay the Chinese for it. Gotta wonder what Dems are planning to pay for BillaryCare and all their other proposed boondoggles with. Seems to me, they should be cutting spending and trying to pay for the war they're trying to lose.

"Just borrowed...."

Well, then, it isn't REAL money is it?

no it WAS spent, we just spent someone else's money.

raise taxes? why not on the richest of the richest of the rich, I am sure they wouldnt miss it.

how bout cutting off the subsidies for those oil companies recording RECORD profits well into the multiple multiple billions per quarter or I know REQUIRING Iraq to pay for its own reconstruction.

why do they get new schools, bridges, wastewater plants and we cant?


Bush is the one trying to lose the war, cause winning would be bad for his policies.

**** why do they get new schools, bridges, wastewater plants and we cant? ****

......the genius of George Bush........

......the genius of George Bush........

the Iraqis have tens of billions sitting in bank accounts from oil revenues, while we work our way further up China's asshole borrowing to build Iraqi infrastructure.........

.......things like this make you wonder how stupid that 28% really are.........

..........but from the Iraqis point of view, if they took us to the world court to sue for war reparation, they would probably collect a lot more.......

........pottery barn principle......you broke it, you pay for it........
