Well, it didn't take long, did it?
« on: November 15, 2006, 05:56:52 PM »
Was looking around at various sites and news blurbs and saw this:don't debate Bush over the war, cut off the funds and force the issue

Not only do we already have the first Democrat suggesting that funds for Iraq be immediately cut off, but also suggesting that the Democrats not even attempt to work with Bush. Then there's the bunch who have decided that George McGovern is one of the best qualified to create a new "exit strategy". Which I suppose they'll call "redeployment" as opposed to RETREAT.

One week and one day. It didn't take long for obstructionism and cut and run to come to the forefront, I don't think we'll have to wait for the inquisition for every Republican remotely involved in the war (the head "investigator" for the Democrats has said his biggest problem will be having so many things to investigate), the socialist healthcare plan, and the rampant tax increases. Not to mention an increase in the refusal to even consider judicial appointments.

Boy, I'm stunned. NOT!

Yeah, I think I saw where some republican guy was saying "stay the course" after Bush said he never said it. Who's the bigger idiot?

Hilts, no one is stopping you from donating your money to pay for the occupation.

Way to go guys, you prove that age old rule: "if you can't dazzle them with brilliance................... ............"

Not that I'd expect anything different.

Maybe it's just me, but I think the $300+ Billion spent in Iraq could have been better spent here at home or maybe not spent at all.

Heh...

I'd much rather be fighting terrorists and enemies abroad than right here in our own backyard.

Oh joy, a Democratic House and Senate.  Anyone else want to bet that within 24 months we have another major terrorist attack upon the US within its boarders, since our enemies can be sure the new leftist congress will not have the cojones to santion forceful retaliation?  Wanna bet we pull a Clinton and do nothing about it except appeal to the UN for sanctions and a damp towl to cry in?

Hey, at least North Korea can safely develop longer range delivery mechanisms for their nukes now.  Oh happy days, the Democrats finally won.

24 months.  I'll bump this post when it happens.

Isn't it strange the conservatives want to spend us into the poor house and the liberals want to balance the books?

Keep playing the fear card.

It's been working well so far.

Many have been saying we fight them there or we fight them here. If/when we cut and run I guess we'll see who's right and who's not.

...and the war in Iraq didn't create more terrorists than ever.

I understand, you want to force other people to pay for a occupation that you agree with regardless of whether or not they agree with it.  Typical socialism.

I guess the economy was going along too good,  too many jobs were being created along with all time high tax revenues.Now it's gonna get fixed right!

Higher taxes, cut and run from Iraq, and giving terrorists rights and all the good stuff that normal humans need when they are simply misunderstood. Lots of love and understanding.

That's a great message the voters sent to those Rebublicans! The message was: we think everything is going too good and we want to pay higher taxes, kill the economy and make everyone in the world love us by becoming sensitive to the plight of the poor people who just want to kill us.
