Yes Things Are Coming Up Roses !!!

-Sarge

You Liberals always look on the bad side of things
Everything is peachy in Iraq
The Right

Sarge, sounds like a land of milk and honey to me.

We've turned a corner, and there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Soon there'll be two goats in every pot, we'll be greeted as liberators and the oil will flow and Indiana farmers markets will be as safe as those in Bahdad.

Sniper.

Sarge: You and the Iraqi's are doing this just to embarras Emporer Bush and I, for one, will not tolerate it any longer. I am going to hold my breath until all you pussy libs admit that Glorious Leader is at least the 23rd Bestest President ever!

-Wobbie the Poop Shoot

Expect the Pentagon start to Tillmanizing the casualty figures until after Petraous tells Congress "Mission Accomplished" in September.
Or is that Lynchification, using Vernon's calculator?

But, but, but yesterday the Bush-toady newspaper USA Today said in their poll results that Americans now all think Bush's surge in Iraq is going soooo well.
Hmmmm, "fixed" poll results -- again?

"fixed" poll results"

As the old adage goes... "you can fool some of the people all of the time."

How many times have we heard that the corner has been turned in Iraq? 5...6...10? Yet there are still those out there that are willing to buy into this without any concrete evidence whatsoever.

Four more US troops killed in Baghdad today.

For what did they die, Mr. President.
Are you on vacation yet?

When in the course of human events....

I think it's time again.

Aug-2003 35
Aug-2004 66
Aug-2005 85
Aug-2006 65
Aug-2007 ??

(Hint: ?? > 30)

8. As British Leave, Basra Deteriorates

This is the quagmire our troops are in the middle of, and why troops won't be pulled out until Bush is no longer President.

Bush knows that we can't keep troops in Iraq forever, that we can't hold the line forever without being as brutal to the Iraqis as Saddam was.

At some point we have to leave, and as soon as we do the shit hits the fan and genocide starts.
The Iraqi government can't be fixed without installing a new dictator, which Bush won't do or he has to admit Iraq was one giant pointless mistake.

Our troops will stay and die until Jan '09, at which point the new President will have to choose from 4 tragic choices.

1) Keep troops in Iraq for the next 50 years, watch them die for nothing.
2) Install a new Saddam Hussein, admit nothing was acomplished.
3) Pullout, watch Iraqis kill each other for nothing.
4) Draft, occupy Iraq with overwhelming force, be the dictator ourselves while spending tens of billions per month until our credit reaches junk bond status and our broken military hitchhikes home.

Mission accomplished.

Norm: Very succinct.

Want to make any bets as to how long it takes for queen clinton to pull the troops out???

The Republicans will force Bush to pull out before September 2008. They ain't gonna want to go to the polls with this dead albatross around their necks. They just don't want to let the Dems take the credit.

Sniper,

So Hillary chooses (3). At least that's the best choice for us. Which no-win option does your candidate choose?

""Want to make any bets as to how long it takes for queen clinton to pull the troops out???""

So, obviously you think that Bush will leave Iraq for the next president to deal with. In his earlier life he could have Daddy clean up his messes but this time even Daddy can't clean it up.
And just think...there are still around 30% who support him. Amazing.

Not really amazing, Danni.

At least 30% are dumb as dirt.

"No Child Left Behind" - HA

"Detroit's Child Murder Rate Doubles
City Likely To End Year With Rate Higher Than L.A. Or Chicago"

"The number of children killed in Michigan's largest city has doubled this year.

The city is projected to finish the year with a child homicide rate higher than that of Los Angeles, Chicago and other large cities checked by the Detroit Free Press."

this has to be one of the stupidest things ever posted here. And I've seen some stupid things posted.

Yeah, That is what it needs.....more money...How much has been spent on these cities in the last 20 years and it has worked so well (sic)..I agree more cops more prisons...And schools without the NEA and big wooden paddles, JOBS? and who would create these jobs..The government? sure employ them all picking up trash..How Clueless..For lefties it is always "throw money at it" I'd rather burn a trillion dollars than give it to Detroit, Baltimore, Washinton DC. Chicago,And aren't these cities run by Blacks?

Really? Stupid? and what part of it is stupid and why? Those are YOUR (democrat) cities, you wanted to run them, so you run your mouths about how "compassionate you are, So since you have been running these cities for 20 years, I guess you could say 'Mission accomplished" You have destroyed all the major cities on the east coast, and now your working on the west

well there are approximately 1,000,000 people living in detroit, how bout we PAY em NOT to murder each other? if you are so concerned about hte murder rate, which you apparently are.

seems like this high priority of yours is a better use of money that pissing in the sand.

pay each resident one million dollars NOT to murder each other and see how quickly the murder rate drops.

you MUST be for that

actually the death of detroit and baltimore and other major cities is from the death of industry.

now what do you suppose caused that?

Hillbilly-since more people die from lack of medical care than kids die in Detroit, should we invade the HMOs? Or is private medical a "Mission Accomplished" too?

And last time I looked, there weren't 300,000 cops in Detroit.

So your point (other than the one on your head) would be?

Score another mileston for the monkey-brains in Washington. It's not the Iranians who are arming the insurgents, it's our own Keystone Army.

"The Pentagon has lost track of about 190,000 AK-47 assault rifles and pistols given to Iraqi security forces in 2004 and 2005, according to a new government report, raising fears that some of those weapons have fallen into the hands of insurgents fighting U.S. forces in Iraq.

"The author of the report from the Government Accountability Office says U.S. military officials do not know what happened to 30 percent of the weapons the United States distributed to Iraqi forces from 2004 through early this year as part of an effort to train and equip the troops. The highest previous estimate of unaccounted-for weapons was 14,000, in a report issued last year by the inspector general for Iraq reconstruction.

"The United States has spent $19.2 billion trying to develop Iraqi security forces since 2003, the GAO said, including at least $2.8 billion to buy and deliver equipment. But the GAO said weapons distribution was haphazard and rushed and failed to follow established procedures, particularly from 2004 to 2005, when security training was led by Gen. David H. Petraeus, who now commands all U.S. forces in Iraq." Source

Death and more death in Iraq.

Yet so many Americans wish to believe that progress is being made.

America should take steps to make more widely available to the people anti-delusion medicine.

We've turned a corner, and there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Soon there'll be two goats in every pot, we'll be greeted as liberators and the oil will flow and Indiana farmers markets will be as safe as those in Bahdad.

Sniper.
