By George (the W ain't for Washington) Bush- "I cannot tell a truth."

August 25, 2006 08:23 AM | Link to this

WASHINGTON - Rep. Christopher Shays (news, bio, voting record), who is locked in a tough re-election fight against an anti-war challenger, says the U.S. should consider setting a timeline for troop withdrawals from Iraq.

“Our troops cannot be there indefinitely,” Shays, R-Conn., said Thursday from London during a telephone conference call with reporters after visiting Iraq for the 14th time since the 2003 U.S.-led invasion. “We need to have a sense of when our troops can withdraw.”

Here’s one more ‘CUT AND RUN’ Republican. Since only a wingnut could think that Iraq is anything but a pathetic quagmire, even the Republican faithful are now saying what the Democrats have been saying for more than a year. There must be a ‘TIMETABLE’ set to end King George’s Middle East Welfare Program. No more big, big, big, big, Republican government free rides for the Iraqis. Next step……..no more Republican big, big, big, big government at all ! ! !

This is from Dean’s new book nailing the wingnut’s mindset:

Right Wing Authoritarians

: Faulty reasoning — RWAs are more likely to:

Make many incorrect inferences from evidence. Hold contradictory ideas leading them to ‘speak out of both sides of their mouths.’ Uncritically accept that many problems are ‘our most serious problem.’ Uncritically accept insufficient evidence that supports their beliefs. Uncritically trust people who tell them what they want to hear. Use many double standards in their thinking and judgements.

2: Hostility Toward Outgroups — RWAs are more likely to:

Weaken constitutional guarantees of liberty such as the Bill of Rights. Severely punish ‘common’ criminals in a role-playing situation. Admit they obtain personal pleasure from punishing such people. Be prejudiced against racial, ethnic, nationalistic, and linguistic minorities. Be hostile toward homosexuals. Volunteer to help the government persecute almost anyone. Be mean-spirited toward those who have made mistakes and suffered.

3: Profound Character Flaws — RWAs are more likely to:

Be dogmatic. Be zealots. Be hypocrites. Be bullies when they have power over others. Help cause and inflame intergroup conflict. Seek dominance over others by being competitive and destructive in situations requiring cooperation.

4: Blindness To One’s Own Failings And To The Failings Of Authority Figures whom They Respect— RWAs are more likely to:

Believe they have no personal failings. Avoid learning about their personal failings. Be highly self-righteous. Use religion to erase guilt over their acts and to maintain their self-righteousness.

RWA is also correlated with political conservatism — not so much at the level of ordinary voters, but with increasing strength as one moves from voters to activists to office holders, and then from lower to higher-level officeholders.

It’s the evil, rasist, republican (Red) planets discriminating against a small minority planet. I hear Jesse Uranus Jackson is planning to meet with Pluto and is going to race-card/guilt/extort the other planets into letting pluto back into system. And by the way, the reason plutos orbit and rotation is off is because Bush lied after Cheney shot it accidently (Sure it was an accident). And its so small because the planetary goverment did not give is enough assistance growing up. Oh why, oh why can’t they all just get along

I’ve finally figured it out.

You see, Bush being the cunning man that he is decided to do the unthinkable. See, Bush understanding that terrorist were bad after September 11, decided to go after the man that they felt was the gang leader of these guys. This man was named Osama Bin Laden. So where was this gang leader? Why, he was in bed with the Taliban warlords in the fantastic country of Afghanistan. Mr. Bush being upset with the situation decided we’re going to smash some heads and go find this guy. In the mean time he calls all the countries he doesn’t like, the Axis of Evil™ because they have nuc-lear weapons, or may produce nuc-lear weapons one day or another. So we go into Afghanistan and blow up terrorist sheep herders and a few Taliban warlords, and Al-Queada members here and there. Yea! We liberated the people of Afghanistan that were oppressed by the Taliban, which I might add were crazy people. (I completely agree with this part!). The bad part though is that the gang leader, Osama Bin Laden has gotten away into the Mountains of Torra Bora, or Pakistan and we cant find him. We ask Mr. Bin Laden to come out and play nice but he never does. At the point we gave up the search for Bin Laden was the point when we lost the war on terror. Didn’t Bin Laden always say that we gave up too easily?

In the mean time, Mr. Bush and his cabinet of leet crew decide we need to go to war with Iraq because they are on the Axis of Evil™ naughty list. What was the reason for going to war with Iraq? Was it the Weapons of Mass Destruction® (WMD’s) that previous US administrations had sold to Iraq in good faith that they would wipe Iran off the face of the map? They would have liked for you to believe there were WMD’s there, but there were none. ZERO! End of Story. Was it for the liberation of the fun loving Iraqi people? Was it for the liberation of crude oil that lies beneath the sands of Iraq which just happens to have the world’s second largest reserve? Was it because there was Al-Queada in Iraq? No, there were never any there, only Kurds that wanted revenge on Saddam, who Mussoui happened to buddy up with. Hell he even wasn’t even part of Al-Queada until the United States attacked Iraq. I mean, lets completely ignore the reports, specifically the 9/11 report, that state that Saddam Hussein never had any ties to the terrorist organization. Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein hated each other, why would they wan

How many times do we see the same thing here every day?

What happened to being the party of “personal responsibility” and all that crap? No one in this administration has taken responsibility for ANYTHING that’s occurred in the past 5 years… all they ever want to say is “well, look at what Bill Clinton didn’t do!”

why would they want to work together?

No, the war on Iraq was used to draw every terrorist known to Iraq. It was like one giant terrorist magnet. I guess you could call it a “diversion”. That way they would go and attack our troops in Iraq instead of attacking the United States directly. As long as the terrorist stayed out of the US and were killing our troops in a far off country that we didn’t have to see first hand, then there was nothing to worry about. Because as far as the public knows, the terrorist had been contained, there hadn’t been another attack on our homeland. The War On Terror™ was working.

An excerpt of Dubya’s press conference last week:

(Dubya): You know, I’ve heard this theory about, you know, everything was just fine until we arrived and — you know, the stir-up-the-hornet’s- nest theory. It just doesn’t hold water, as far as I’m concerned.

The terrorists attacked us and killed 3,000 of our citizens before we started the freedom agenda in the Middle East. They were …

(Reporter): What did Iraqi have to do with that?

(Dubya): What did Iraq have to do with what?

(Reporter): The attacks upon the World Trade Center.

(Dubya): Nothing. Except for it’s part of — and nobody’s ever suggested in this administration that Saddam Hussein ordered the attack. Iraq was a — Iraq — the lesson of September the 11th is: Take threats before they fully materialize, Ken.

So, not tracking Bin Laden down in Afghanistan is “irrelevant” according Coulter, and Iraq had “nothing” to do with the 9/11 attacks, as admitted by Dubya… what the ????

Due to our occupation of Iraq so far:

2600+ Americans killed; 20,000 Americans injured or maimed; 120,000+ estimated Iraqi civilians dead; $400,000 BILLION in American dollars spent; 4 hrs of electricity each day in Iraq; Gasoline prices in Iraq have topped $6 per gallon … (and I thought we were told that the Iraqi “oil” would pay for this war?!)

And Dubya now admits that he has no answers for an exit strategy… “not while I’m the president!”

For days, the French tried to weasel out of their own resolution; Le Figaro dutifully editorialized in support (ridiculing Fijians along the way!) of Chirac’s “caution” in sending in only 200 soldiers — even as it ran a round-up of European press ridicule in which the Italians and others accused France of cowardice and deceit. The response was shrill, especially for Europeans skilled in cynical non-responses. Even the Belgians laughed: “France retreats,” said RTBF.-NationalReview

You know what’s really funny about this, Goldilocks said France was the new world power the other day because they finally honored their commitment of, check this out, 1400 troops.

These are the same libs that slandered Poland and all the other countries that sent thousands of troops to Iraq.

CREEP,

Your 1:33 cited this story from Time to buttress the idea that Iran has nothing to do with the Shia militia in Iraq.

What does the article say?

[“Iraq’s most powerful politician (Abdul-Azziz al-Hakimhas) dismissed claims by U.S. officials and generals that Iran is interfering in Baghdad’s affairs.(http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1333861,00.html)

Who is this “powerful politician”, one might ask?

“Hakim heads the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq, or SCIRI, the largest of Iraq’s political parties. SCIRI has close ties to Tehran, and many of its leaders — including Hakim — spent many years in exile in Iraq during the Saddam Hussein era.”

Do you think its POSSIBLE that this person is LYING?

“Renewed Tehran-bashing in Washington is unlikely to sit well with Iraqi Shi’ite politicians, who make up the dominant block of parliament. Like Hakim and al-Amiri, many leading figures in the Iraqi government are beholden to Iran for its support of the anti-Saddam movement.”

The hatred of Israel is 10K years old, so despite many expert’s opinion that no Iraqi Shia would ever trust a Persian Shia, a defacto alliance is evolving.

This is the most critical development in our occupation of Iraq. It’s the deal breaker. It’s the one thing that will force us to cut and run to Kurdistan. We’ll have to redraw the maps. We’ll have to slaughter the Shia as they make a dash for those oil fields.

It’s basically written in stone that the new government in Iraq that we have provided security for is obsolete and irrelevant. Kind of like Andy, RW, and Buy Dickish.

If YOU’RE looking for the “happy zone” check out the WalMarts in China. You can have a merry time with the Communist Cell members who are delirious because, unlike the unfortunate American employees, they belong to a……………….. UNION!!

The have no idea, or they are applying their rushncrap college genius math, that the $10 an hour a Walmart worker averages now, is higher than the $7 minimum wage hike they are all hot for.

What do you expect from an elite liberal with it’s head up it’s as-s?

Since it’s not their nickle, the libs figure they can jack the wages up enough so that they can impose a higher tax rate on that earnings bracket.

What’s your point? We need to keep Middle East oil out of the hands of al qaeda and other assorted islamomaniacs.

The story about the woman who represents the “Christian Left” reveals that she doesn’t even believe we should be in Afghanistan.

Here’s the Portland Press Herald story on Bush’s meeting. Note the opinion survey. Almost half the respondents think it’s okay to protest during a family wedding.

Our side in Iraq holds elections. The other side kills people who stand in line to vote. America’s military is fighting not to protect one set of thugs from another, but to allow a democratically elected government to establish itself in a society a majority of whose members want it to do so. It’s hard to imagine a more morally worthy goal. And that would be true even if our enemies were not uncommonly murderous—which they plainly are. Rarely has a militarily powerful state fought for nobler ends.-WeeklyStandard
