Superlib - "Pulling US troops out of Iraq isn't going to make the war go away. We have a responsibility to be there until security is better and Iraqis can handle things more on their own. Iraq has shown a lot of progress over the past 6-12 months. Let' see…

Skip - "That's a very, very weak argument considering where that intel came from." Yeah, and a lot of that intel came from 1. people who were already working for the CIA before GWB came in and 2. a lot of that info came from other countries' intel sources -…

There's another hidden factor here too - there's going to be a lot more U.S. and Iraqis die with all the DU America ha pumped into Iraq.

Not much talk about that yet but DU has already been killing Gulf War 1 U.S. vets for years.

Sarge and the other…

Sarge - so you're keen for your countrymen to continue dying for nothing and your economy to continue rupturing money for "as long as it takes"?

Heh, OBL must be your No. 1 fan! You're helping him to accomplish his mission, not yours. :-)

And while you're making smart comments…

Skip, looks like you and Sarge don't have a clue about when or how this war will end, which just underlines what a disaster it has become.

Skip - "McCain - like Bush - lacks a clear strategy. Well, there were a lot of Dems that were supportive of this…

Another Iran-related point that highlights the sheer stupidity of the current U.S. administration, and connected to WilliB's quote

Jahdog - "The Washington Post explains that the administration is seeking “the prerogative for U.S. forces to conduct operations without approval from the Iraqi government.”

I read yesterday the Iraqi parliament is going to allow nothing of the sort. They have specifically said that if any Iraq-US agreement is created,…

McCain - like Bush - lacks a clear strategy.

Even Bush/war supporters cannot answer the following:

1/ How long will the U.S. remain in Iraq?

2/ What will 'victory' look like?

3/ When will we know when Iraqi forces have 'stood up'?

4/ Where is funding for this war going…

COMMENT OF THE MONTH from TPOJ -

"I'm disgusted by my government's actions, and I AM NOT OF THE LEFT. I am disgusted on many levels: incompetence, hypocrisy, selfishness, greed. But I'm considerably more disgusted and disheartened by the attitude that some of my fellow Americans have adopted: they're more…
