AKIron,

Thats right buddy. There can ONLY be 2 places to stand. You stand hither or nither. For so many years in this country walls have been erected to seperate the people. Whether it be by race, color, sex, political affiliation, pro-life, pro-choice, gun laws, war, taxes, classes, education, and gawd knows how the fek I could almost forget religion. Most non-open minded folks need to place peps in some sort of classification. I dunno why, I guess because its what they are programmed to. But when done, valid point or not, they are not heard.

The fact is I enjoy points out of both of your list. So what does that make me? Open minded?? Self thinker?? A patriot? Perhaps a terrorist??

This countrie's goverment thrives on fear and seperation of the people.

I just realized im wasting my time and forgot about were I was going with this. Not that it would matter if I had a point to make. I must be a liberal with nothing good/true to say, so what would the point be..................

Well, a liberal standpoint would be for everyone to have a gun, so I guess that makes him a liberal.

Could you point out the other times I through out anti-clinton rhetoric at every valid point made, or is this just another obvious shot in the dark when you have nothing to say?

Sheeesus man, go back and read the thread title. "More Americans Dead (in Iraq)." That's what the discussion is about, Martlett. LOL I could go back to College and get a Masters in English, a Bachelors in deductive logic, and a Ph.D in psychology and I STILL can't find the common thread between Bill Clinton, GWB, Howard Stern and Iraq.

Nothing to say? At least I can stay on topic.

Once again, we're talking about whether things are getting better in Iraq or not. I tend to think the longer we're there the worst it gets, kinda like wiping your butt with a Hula-Hoop. The reason I think that is that there's a whole bunch of Moslem Extremists who are now flocking to Iraq to take shots at our guys and they don't share GWB's vision of Democracy for the Middle East.

Call me whatever names you wish, the bottom line is I don't believe we have a snowflake's chance in Hades of "creating" Democracies in the Middle East, Asia, Africa or any other place, especially at the barrel of a gun.

Oh, and I sincerely hope I am wrong and you, AKIron, and Rude are correct. FWIW.

Iron, you have typed much, but said nothing... I would threatin much of my wealth in the belief that you are not capable, now or before of making a valid point... Which was my point... But, you did not see that did you.. I did not think so...

My comment WAS on topic. Again, go back and read the quote, then my comment. I don't think you'll ever understand it, though.

I hope you're wrong because I think it will either be a democracy or a desert of glass, eventually.

AK I hope I'm wrong too.

LOL Lose my sanity? Why, because I object to American service people dying in some craphole halfway around the world?

Even if there was the remotest chance in the World of long term stability in the Middle East I would be opposed to sacrificing our children in a war. In fact the insanity is that our leadership is willing to do exactly that.

I guess it's a good thing some of us are willing to make that sacrifice. Talk is cheap.

It's the neo-nazi conservatives that are calling everyone librals.

I just report the facts - Fair and Balanced!
The spin stops here.

If your claim is that liberal is a vile, filthy, repugnant name to be called, I'll stop calling you one.

Apparently the self proclaimed Conservatives here don't give a Rat's Arse that American Soldiers are dying, as long as it's under George Bush's administration and they aren't the ones getting killed. Nice Armchair Quarterbacking!

The Pentagon announced that the number of Americans killed in combat in Iraq since May 1 — the day Bush stood before a banner on the carrier Abraham Lincoln that declared, “Mission Accomplished” — exceeds the 114 killed by hostile fire during the war itself, and the number keeps climbing. So far 148 good American Soldiers have died since "Mission Accomplished". This does not include over 100 deaths that are considered non-combat related.

What do the soldiers in Iraq think?

"This is the third helicopter shot down in a short amount of time. It's tragic to see people being killed like this" said Capt. Jefferson Wolfe, a spokesman for the 4th Infantry Division.
"We certainly see they are targeting helicopters. That's been firmly established in the last several weeks," he said. "What it shows is that when there appears to be a target of opportunity, those targets will be taken by the enemy."

The situation is not stabilizing, it's deteriorating. We are not changing our strategy and guerrilla forces are running amuck killing American Soldiers. Sound familiar? Remind you of another President from Texas?
