When you’re a moonbat^^ you get to play both sides of the issue:

Angry Pakistani officials have condemned an American airstrike on a remote village near the Afghan border which the US said was aimed at Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama bin Laden’s second-in-command. Pakistan is preparing to lodge a formal diplomatic protest over the attack, which killed at least 18 people, because it was launched from four pilotless aircraft which intruded 30 miles into Pakistani air space from Afghanistan.

Bad America! How dare you try to kill Al Qaida!

Of course the other side of this issue being the unbelievably childish cartoon that Mikey drew up, a view into his whacked out anti American world where Al Qaeda’s best efforts are hoped for and always appreciated.

Either that or he’s telling us that America should stop with this self imposed restraint of our armed forces and get busy killing terrorists regardless of any damage that might be done?

Is that it?

LOL, this one is pretty funny!

Hey, dull… you missed the point, AGAIN!

Let’s see if I can explain this too you…

You see, we were once fighting in Afghanistan killing the Taliban, Al-Q, and looking for OBL and his command structure. Well, the next year, the president decided to go blow up Iraq because it felt good. Well, that and I blame the people of the US and congress for giving him a free pass. I guess that’s what we get for letting Bush use Afghanistan as the equivalent of a high school pep-rally to go to war with Iraq.

So, we go to war with Iraq. We’re killing Iraqi solders and blowing up palaces left and right. We march into Baghdad and claim “MISSION ACCOMPLSIHED!” YIPPIE! People, ask Mr. Bush, hey, what about that OBL guy that you promised to catch and never let up on? “Oh, that guy?” “Oh, I don’t think about him anymore.” Then, the violence in Iraq starts to get worse. Car bombs, suicide bombers, IEDs, sectarian violence, and death squads start taking its toll on our solders and the people of Iraq. More and more Afghanistan is pushed to the back burner.

Because of this, and the pressure taken off of OBL and his people, he, or they, have slowly been able to rebuild, we’ll say, some of their network. That’s something we certainly don’t want to happen.

While I certainly hope we’ll be able to overcome the burdens of Iraq, I do not believe we should have left Afghanistan to start a war with Iraq in the first place.

Of course, the point of the cartoon—which Dull is too dull-witted to grasp—is that America is too weighted down by the Iraq Distraction to keep tabs on the REAL enemy, which is gathering strength.

But in Wingnut World (population: Dull), pointing out that fact is un-American. Much better to wear official Bush Brand Blinders(TM).

You got a point, maybe we wouldn’t have lost 280,000 soldiers saving France’s a-ss.

I know you are the “genius” here but consider this-

Bin Laden is most likely in Pakistan. Should we invade them, is that what you panty waists are telling us?

What if Bin Laden moves to China? What then?

You do realize that your beloved World is now in charge of the operations in Afghanistan, that’s the multilateralism that you were gnashing your teeth over in 2002, so why aren’t you pinkos bitc-hing at France about this bin Laden deal? You’re on their speed dial, right?

How about if we pretend that bin Laden is just a figurehead and spiritual leader of Al Qaeda and instead of chasing him around the world like blooming idiots, we lure his soldiers into a battlefield far away from New York City and kill hundreds of thousands of them like dogs in the street, destroying their capability of attacking America for over 5 years in a row, uh, wait a minute, that’s what Bush is doing. Never mind.

Even better let’s pretend that you filthy two faced anti American maggots really even care about catching bin Laden and this is not just some stupid political stunt designed to make the democrat party moonbat dullards happy with joy and glee to think America is losing to a two bit turban wearing cave dweller.

Now this IS comical….

Under an ugly cartoon picturing Uncle Sam as weighted down with Iraq and Osama standing over him, liberals are shouting and commenting on how to support the country during wartime. Now that is a joke. Running is not support. Propaganda is not support.

First, we are not “overcome” in Iraq or Afghanistan. NATO forces continue to monitor Afghistan and we are part of that force.

The surge in Iraq has just started and the Iraqis are already showing their ability to fight those who disrupt them.

In the meantime, liberals are running and crying “Defeat! Defeat! Cut and run! All is lost!! The sky is falling!!” Then they sob that they have a perfect right to undermine the country. Halleluia!! Just like Corky Clueless Cobb. All mouth and no brains.

How about a compromise, say 200,000. Would any of you war loving dodgers like to volunteer? After all, if you went to Iraq you would be saving America not France.

200,000 of you chickenhawks could do some real damage in Iraq. Come on. Your country needs you. If only 100,000 of you were killed, so what, if we prevail in Iraq its worth it. Right?

Mr. Dull, you’ve certainly earned your name again. You’re trying to compare the current fiasco in Iraq to WWII. Again you have the wrong analogy. Iraq is not WWII, its VIETNAM; another example of the military industrial complex getting the US into a protracted mess which does not benefit OUR country, but THEIR bottom line.

Mark my words, Mr. Lucko Brain Dull, if we follow the plan that you and your fearless leader Dubya advocate, and continue to screw around in areas of our world where we don’t belong and have little understanding of, that we will see the good old USA as a third world county in short order.

Hey, you can’t compare two wars that have NOTHING in common with each other.

Besides, Iraq had NO LINKS TO TERROR!!! End of story, it has been written about numerous times. It was the administration’s blunder into Iraq that caused the current level of violence. So, basically you’re saying we have a pretend war in Iraq to flush out Al-Q? And I guess you’re saying it was ok to start a war with Iraq to attract terrorist to the conflict so they can kill our solders over there, so “we don’t have to fight them over here”? What do you think the solders families think about that?

Hi N-GA: What’s the matter, you too afraid to show your “NeoThink” as-s in here again today, after that whooping you took yesterday?

Vietnam had a regular army of more then 2,000,000 men, high tech Soviet weapons such as the SAM-7/ T-72 and had border supply routes that they knew the American Pinko Brigade would keep open for them, protecting it fom attack.

Versus Al Qaeda, a couple of turban wearing cave dwellers here and there, or what’s left of them after all the suicide missions and American army target practice sessions.

We have the perfect example of victory in Iraq, seen through Basra, train the Iraqi’s to provide their own security and withdraw our troops, leaving a stable government behind.

But you libs see this as the perfect time to surrender to the gang of cold blooded butchers, especially considering that Bush’s plan could very well succeed, and that would really suck wouldn’t it? And it would cost you votes in 08, the Horror!

The national policy of the elected parliament in Iraq is to follow the Constitution of their country.

The mission statement or understood goal of our foreign policy in Iraq is to win the war and bring our troops home. Note to liberals: the word is WIN not run. (If you are unfamiliar with the word WIN, please look in your dictionary for the meaning. Thank you.)

Let’s review:

1) Just this week, we learned that Al Qaeda is back. Bin Laden has reasserted his authority.

2) Last fall we learned that the nation’s 16 intelligence agencies concluded that the Iraq war has hurt the U.S. efforts to fight terrorism while serving as a recruiting boon for jihadist terror networks.

3) The Iraq war is a monumental failure and there has never been a real plan from the Bush/Cheney Administration to get the U.S. out of the quagmire.

So, what does Dick Cheney do? Continues his irrational and hysterical attacks on Nancy Pelosi:

Cheney refused Friday to take back his charge that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s opposition to President Bush’s Iraq war buildup is playing into the hands of the al-Qaida terrorist network.

“If you’re going to advocate a course of action that basically is withdrawal of our forces from Iraq, then you don’t get to just do the fun part of that, that says, ‘We’ll, we’re going to get out,’ and appeal to your constituents on that basis,” Cheney said.

Now, we know Big Dick will never admit he’s wrong. They don’t do that.

If the U.S. pulled out of Iraq, the Sunnis and Shias would both work to destroy al Qaeda in their country. If that’s true, then the Bush/Cheney administration is actually playing in to the hands of al Qaeda. No surprise, Bush and Cheney have been played by al Qaeda for six years now.

Kimberly-Clark (symbol: KMB) has performed very well considering it is not an oil stock, nor is it tied directly to the defense industry.

In the past 5 years, this stock has risen from $42 to $70…quite a return when dividends and spin-offs are factored into the calculation.

KMB management attributes much of the gain to the stellar performance of its “Depends” products. Sales of Depends have sky-rocketed since 9/11. Careful analysis shows that this increase has not been a result of senior citizens’ purchases. Remarkably sales have been driven by anxiety in the “red” states.

Initially, the increase was due to extreme right-wing individuals who were suffering from nightly incontinence caused by their fear of being killed in their sleep by radical Muslim terrorists. However, sales took another bump upward when these same customers began to worry about the new political environment created by their loss of both houses of Congress.

One such customer, Mr. Andy (the Bedwetter) Luckobull of Georgia had this to say about Depends:” Thank goodness my mother discovered this wonderful product. Now I can sit and blog all day without having to leave the computer! And they are on the list of permissible purchases using food stamps, WIC checks, and ADC.”

As a direct by-product, sales of diaper rash products have increased as well.

I awoke with the sound of my radio telling me the latest news this morning. It wasn’t much different than it has been over the last five years. More stupidity in Iraq came out of the radio and into my ears.

But, today’s stupidity was another dunce cap placed on the head of the Bush administration. They must truly believe that Americans are that stupid. First I heard that Tony Blair has finally come to his senses and is bringing about 20% of the British troops home. In addition two more countries Denmark and Lithuania have come to their senses as well and are bringing their troops home. I know that Denmark and Lithuania didn’t really contribute a huge amount of manpower to this fight, however, when we went into the war 50 soldiers counted as a major contribution by the “coalition of the willing.” Now, as these “major” contributions are being withdrawn the Bush administration ignores them and looks the other way.

How to interpret this?

Do the weights symbolize the UN Sanctions crushing the Iraqi people and UBL lifting weights in preparation for vindication? After all, UBL quoted the debilitating sanctions in his fatwah.

Or, is the scrawny weight lifter the UN’s demand that Saddam disclose the whereabouts of his WMD’s being squashed by Iraq’s deceit and conditions of search?

Or, is the bench presser the UN officials involved in the Oil for Food scandal being crushed under the weight of their Iraq deception when Bush invaded and exposed that deception?

Or, is it that UBL used to be capable of benching that much weight, but the atrophy caused by loosing many of his leaders has forced him to gain in strength by starting with the little dumb bells?

Oh, this is ml’s toon so it must be about and opportunistic criticism of a war never prosecuted by America. Wars always have ups and downs for both sides as they execute measures and then interpret the enemies counter measures, but; of course ml will accentuate America’s defeat at every opportunity.

In the 60s and 70s the pro-Vienam war crowd kept insisting that unless we won in Vietnam that the “commies” would be at our door in no time. This is what the think tanks of that time called the “domino theory”. Well, we pulled out of Vietnam and for the life of me I can’t find any Viet Cong soldiers lurking anywhere around thirty years later. I did notice that some Vietnamese have opened up some nail shops and restaurants and you even see some on TV occasionally; but none of them have rifles that I’ve noticed.

And obviously you lived up to your rep of not having a very educated mind. The credit card analogy…do you need the definition of that word provided…falls into the category of the old saying “doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result”.

Since Muffin (and the rest of the neocon pack over here) has nothing better to do than hack this blog so as to always get the last word, I’ll respond to her last night’s post.

My post was exactly historically accurate. It’s your problem if you can’t deal with that. The North Vietnamese were still Vietnamese, and viewed South Vietnam as part of their land. It’s irrelevant whether you agree with that sentiment, it’s important that they did. In WWII Americans WERE fighting for their land and homes. I’d suggest you look up a thing called “Pearl Harbor bombing”. Japan declared war on the U.S. So yes, the U.S. was fighting for their homes. Notice how America was not directly involved in WWII until that particular incident of an attack on American soil. American victory over Nazism and Fascism came because the Soviet Union army, which was also fighting for their land and their country, bore by far the heaviest brunt of the attack. “America” did not beat Nazism, the coalition of America and countries far more involved than America did. Sorry to break that to you Muffin. And Communism was not defeated by military action, so that’s irrelevant.

Hope this education helps chase at least some bats from that melon you call a head. P.S. You’re a stupid wh0re for calling me a “Communist”. Just thought I’d share.

Army enlistment officer -[[. I wonder what our nation would be like if all the gutless wonders that are around today, were around during WWI or WWII. Don’t say it was different then, it isn’t. War is War, regardless of the era. ]]

So where are all the recruits? The anti-Iraq war crowd is missing. No surprise there.

Where are the conservatives? The patriots? The Bush supporters? The freedom fighters? The surge supporters? Who gave them a waiver?

Why aren’t you they leading the way? This threat is real right? I don’t see ANYONE lining up to save us from Iraq.

See how much luck you have recruiting anyone here. No one wants to go. None of the many chickenhawks here want to go. Ask them. Good luck.

Iraqi national police officers joined United States troops on searches late last week through relatively calm districts of Shaab and Ur in northeast Baghdad in the first large operation of the Baghdad security plan. But appearances in Iraq can often be deceiving. At least two of the national police officers who turned out for the operation were moving ahead of the American troops not to lead the security drive but to warn the residents to hide their weapons and other incriminating evidence.

On another patrol, an American commander said, Iraqi residents told American soldiers that a national policemen had warned them to hide anything incriminating including paraphernalia about Moktada al-Sadr, the Shiite militia leader whose forces are targets of the Baghdad crackdown.

“Families told us he was warning people before we’d come in, ‘If you have this or that, then hide it before they get here,’ ” said First Lt. Andy Moffit, who led a platoon through Shaab and Ur. {{{{The major problem with Iraqi forces is not their tactical skill, but their “loyalties and integrity}}}},” he said.

1st LT Moffitt, an american officer on field duty in Iraq, knows which way the wind does blow. The problem with the Iraqi security force is not training or equipment, the Iraqis simply do not want to adopt our ‘free’ way of life. They never did, this was just another LIE told by Republicans in order to manipulate the american public. No matter how hard we try or how much money we throw at it, we will never be able to turn shiite into shinola.

BD, Dusty: The reason we keep asking the question is because the neocons and their drones are unable to answer it.

“Was Iraq at threat to the U.S.? Did they have any connection to the terrorist attacks on America?”

Until you recognize the obvious truth—that the answer is “No”—you’ll never understand why REAL Americans want us out of Iraq and focused on fighting actual terrorist threats again.

Corky,

I’ve just about had it with your boring and juvenile refrain.

These are the age requirements to enlist:

Active duty Army - 42;Army Reserves - 42;Army National Guard - 42;Active duty Air Force - 27;Air Force Reserve - 34 ;Air National guard - 34 ;Active duty Navy - 34 ;Navy Reserves - 39 ;Active duty Marines - 28 ;Marine Corps Reserves - 29 ;Active duty Coast Guard - 27 ;Coast Guard Reserves - 27

Think about it for a minute (if you can). The Leftists like you may be wet-behind-the-ears college kids, but for the most part the conservatives have either already served or are past the age of enlistment.

In other words, sign up yourself for duty in Afghanistan, or STFU.

btw, any snarky comments about how old I am will be taken as a compliment since with age comes wisdom and experience - something you sophomores are completely lacking.

That shows that the Iraqis are cooperating with us, and contrary to your pessimistic claims that they do not enjoy a “free way of life”, they are using their freedom to help our efforts.

Also, don’t dismiss the impact that these liberals propogandists have had.

Daniel,

Who owns this?

This explains why any time Islamic warriors defeat another nation, they call the inhabitants kafir (the one who, according to the Qur’an, is ungrateful to the blessings showered by Allah) and rape their women. Pakistani Muslim soldiers raped a quarter of a million Bangali women in 1971 after they massacred 3 million unarmed civilians. This atrocity is not considered a sin in Islam, because the religious leader of the soldiers decreed that Bangladeshis were infidels.

Muslim gang rapes in France:

[Two high-profile cases gave a particular impetus to NPNS during 2003. The first was that of Samira Bellil who published a book called Dans l’enfer des tournantes (“In Gang Rape Hell”) in which she recounts her life as a girl under la loi des cités (the law of the housing projects) where she was gang raped on more than one occasion, the first time at age 13, afraid to speak out, and ultimately seen only as a sexual object, alienated and shunned by her family and some of her friends. The second case was that of 17-year-old Sohanne Benziane who was burned alive by an alleged small-time gang leader] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NiPutesNi_Soumises)

Muslim rape and slavery in the Sudan:

What’s Sudanese slavery like? One 11-year-old Christian boy told me about his first days in captivity: “I was told to be a Muslim several times, and I refused, which is why they cut off my finger.” Twelve-year-old Alokor Ngor Deng was taken as a slave in 1993. She has not seen her mother since the slave raiders sold the two to different masters. Thirteen-year-old Akon was seized by Sudanese military while in her village five years ago. She was gang-raped by six government soldiers, and witnessed seven executions before being sold to a Sudanese Arab…Many freed slaves bore signs of beatings, burnings and other tortures. More than three-quarters of formerly enslaved women and girls reported rapes.

More to come…

ALEXANDRIA, Egypt - An Egyptian cleric, speaking publicly for the first time, said Thursday that Egyptian officials tortured him in prison after he was kidnapped in Italy — allegedly by CIA agents — and sent here for interrogation.

The claims by Osama Hassan Mustafa Nasr sharpened the controversy over the CIA’s “extraordinary rendition” program, just days after Italy indicted 26 Americans and five Italian agents accused of seizing him.

“I was subjected to the worst kind of torture in Egyptian prisons. I have scars of torture all over my body”. The 44-year-old bearded Muslim preacher showed dark, circular scars on his wrists and ankles that he said were from electrical shocks by Egyptian interrogators. He said he also has scars on his stomach and other areas but was embarrassed to show them in a public place.

Republicans have been tellin us that no body ever really got tortured, it was all just a bunch of over eager recruits that got caught pullin ‘frat house water-boarding pranks’, right?

Since we now see that was just another Republican LIE, now comes the neo-rationalizing of torture like they neo-rationalized the recent rapes. That is the problem with Neo-think, Neo-puritans have the uncanny ability to rationalize literally anything, including torture and rape, if they think that the end justifies the means.

For civilized human beings around the world, however, there is never any justification for rape or torture. Even if a temporary positive end may result by breaking a detainee, and even if some soldiers’ lives are temporarily saved thereby, these rotten apples will eventually spoil the entire well-intended basket, causing greater loss to American interets and troops than had our actions been guided by decency to begin with.

Buy Danish: Thanks for answering. So you claim that “Yes, Iraq was a threat to the U.S.”, huh?

Exactly what threat did they pose? They had no tactical weapons and no means to attack us; they had made no THREAT to attack us; they were uninvolved with the people who DID attack us.

So what form did this “threat” take, and why didn’t it materialize when our forces invaded their borders?

See, the rest of the country kinda noticed after the invasion that… well, Iraq didn’t have anything that could remotely pose any kind of a threat to us unless we walked right into their backyards and put bullseyes on our backs. Ergo, the invasion was unnecessary and pointless.

A handful of right-wing bloggers are celebrating their new web site designed to promote troop escalation and attack members of Congress who vote in opposition to Bush’s disastrous belief that he can somehow “win” the Iraq war at this point. True to the nature of the 101st Fighting Keyboarders, the trend continues: even though the site has an entire section on “support the troops” resources, there isn’t a single link on the site to any branch of the armed forces, let alone to recruitment information.

Now, this is in no way meant to say the resources they link to are bad. Fisher House, for one, is one of the most noble and valuable resources out there to benefit the people in this country who bothered to do what most warbloggers won’t. But the “Victory Caucus,” which, given its name and mission, I would assume wants… you know… victory, apparently doesn’t think supporting victory involves actually going over there. That’s a tad disturbing.

Almost every major right-winger who supports the war has no interest in directing their readers to military websites to enlist. If I was really generous, I would avoid thinking it’s because they know there’s no point.

You are rationalizing in order to minimalize this atrocity. The statement that a pattern of rape is rooted in Muslim culture is nothing short of racist.

Yes the military does prosecute the crime of rape vigorously, because our miltary is thankfully neither Republican or Democrat and it does not rationalize or minimalize in order to protect its’ political turf.

The fallacy in your neo-think is that you insisted that Iraqis were evil and a threat to world peace before our invasion of their country. Now that we are an occupation force, suddenly Iraqis have morphed into an America loving people and the only Iraqi that didn’t want the american way of life was Saddam and his two evil sons. This strains credulity, even for a neo-rationalizer.

Deflection doesn’t work anymore either, LuckoDull. The american public is wide awake now and won’t be fooled again.

Nasr was seized by american CIA agents in Italy, this is the reason the agents are under indictment there. They turned him over to their hired-hands, the Egyptians, in an attempt to insulate themselves from impropriety. If a CIA officer didn’t actually hold the cattle prods, they were surely complicit. Accomplices are just as guilty as the principle under our system of justice.

Or would you have us believe that our CIA is so utterly stupid that they have no idea of what happens to the prisoners they are responsible for when they turn over custody? Why did they turn over custody to begin with. What was the reason unless it was to utilize the well-known toture techniques of the Egyptian CIA sub-contractors?

Just another neo-rationalization. It’s ok for America to torture- ‘as long we do it through intermediaries’.

Yes, the surge is certainly working…

“It looked like a scene out of a counterinsurgency training video. Dressed in crisp uniforms with a computer-generated camouflage of blue, gray and brown, Iraqi national police officers joined United States troops on searches late last week through relatively calm districts of Shaab and Ur in northeast Baghdad in the first large operation of the Baghdad security plan.

“But appearances in Iraq can often be deceiving. At least two of the national police officers who turned out for the operation were moving ahead of the American troops not to lead the security drive but to warn the residents to hide their weapons and other incriminating evidence… .

“The much anticipated effort to wrest Baghdad streets from the control of militias and insurgents has been presented in news conferences and public statements as an Iraqi-led operation. Iraqi officials have been out front, announcing arrests, weapons finds and other details, as well as new decrees intended to halt two years of so-called sectarian cleansing. But on the streets, the joint patrols seemed little different from those of the past few years: A handful of Iraqis, acting at the direction of a larger group of Americans, opening drawers and closets and looking behind furniture as they searched for banned weapons or other contraband.

“For the first few days of the operation, about 2,500 American troops took part, compared with about 300 Iraqi forces, a mix of police and Army personnel, military officials said.”

Okay, what do we do AFTER the surge?

Paul…if you’re out there I have a question for you. I was out of town earlier this week, but caught a post of yours that said something that indicated you strongly support GWB’s claim that he has the right to pre-emptively invade another sovereign nation.

I pulled this from dictionary.com (but it may be cross-referenced with Wiki):

“Preemptive war (or preemptive attack) is waged in an attempt to repel or defeat an imminent offensive or invasion, or to gain a strategic advantage in an impending (usually unavoidable) war. Preemptive war is often confused with the term preventive war. While the latter is generally considered to violate international law, and to fall short of the requirements of a just war, preemptive wars are more often argued to be justified or justifiable. However, the legal ground for pre-emption remain highly a contentious issue.

In a classical approach self-defence is restricted to a response to an armed attack, in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter. However, following the practice of states an imminent threat emanating from neighboring state or disturbances by enemy forces from foreign territory may justify preemptive attacks. Legal experts refer to Carolina case of 1837 when British Forces in Canada crossed U.S. border and killed Canadian rebels and one American citizen who were preparing a next offensive against British power in Canada. The United States rejected the legal ground of “Carolina case”. The U.S Secretary of State Webster in 1842 pointed out that the necessity for forcible reaction must be “instant, overwhelming, leaving no choice of means, and no moment for deliberation”.”

BTW, my view is that if you are going to engage in a pre-emptive action that results in the maiming or killing of anyone, or significant damage to property, then you had better have indisputable proof that backs up your reason for taking that action. If you fail to find that proof, then you should be held accountable in a court of law.

Try to pay close attention because I’m only going to say this once more.

Blackadder started the day claiming that there was now an insurgency armed with all manner of chemical weapons. Buy Danish informed him it was a bottle of Clorox. He blasted back at her with his dangerous chemical weapon meme. Oh and of course it was the evil Bush’s fault.

I asked him as a hypothetical that if this insurgency really had these highly sophisticated chemical weapons how had they acquired or manufactured them. As usual you entered the conversation without reading the blog and getting up to speed. LHU came on to say it was nothing more than swimming pool cleaner which affirmed exactly what Buy Danish had told Blackadder when he first made his erroneous claim. At this point even Blackadder has admitted that these were not some sophisticated weapons and slithered away claiming to have been right all along despite the complete contradiction in his early claim and his later admission.

Attention!

Apparently I need to put something in context for the idiot moonbats since they are all arguing the war with me again.

I said that we went into Iraq to effect regime change for one reason and one reason only. It was in response to this absurdity from Neo-Think at 1:55 today:

{{{The fallacy in your neo-think is that you insisted that Iraqis were evil and a threat to world peace before our invasion of their country.)))

I am not trying to re-argue the Iraq War. Heavens no! Yawn. I am merely pointing out that we did not invade Iraq because “Iraqis were evil”.

Saddam, Qusay, Iday, and various al Tikriti cousins were “evil”. We never, ever claimed that the Iraqi people are evil and our President went to great pains to explain that obvious fact. I see that you dullards were too busy chirping to hear it above your chattering din.

Wussy rushncap,

I did not “viciously attack” you about your lame-brained idea to hand over 1/3 or Iraq to Iran. I pointed out that it was a ridiculous proposal as it would reward a terrorist state for their bad behavior.

Since that was obviously not a vicious attack, we’re back to the fact that you were lying when you made your slippery claim yesterday.

You cited how horribly a cleric was treated in an Egyptian prison after purportedly being sent their as part of the CIAs evil rendition plan, for which you now think it is reasonable that our CIA operatives go to Italy to stand trial.

Since people are treated horribly in Egyptian prisons as a matter of course (and as LuckoDull pointed out, they are treated much better than in Gitmo), I thought that you might be interested in helping people who are mistreated there, particularly a fellow blogger.

A few quick questions then to back up your 5:44…

First, is the current gov’t in Iraq more OR less likely to be allied with Iran than Saddam Hussein’s gov’t?

Second, does Moqtada al Sadr control a voting block of over 30 elected officials including several ministries in the current gov’t and exert an enormous amount of influence in the current Iraqi gov’t?

Please answer the questions truthfully and then tell me that ‘winning’ does NOT mean that we have solidified a gov’t that is aligned with Iran AND Moqtada al Sadr.

Bonus questions: What would be different in this scenario if ‘Madman Murtha and the surrender monkeys have their way and force us to cut ‘n’ run before the Iraqis are ready’???

Would the gov’t be LESS aligned with Iran and Moqtada al Sadr if we redeployed now?

What part of the surge eliminates the potential influence of Iran and Moqtada al Sadr on the CURRENT Iraqi gov’t (you know, the one our soldiers are dying to help solidify)?

THAT’s an irrefutable fact for you—Iraq was, in fact, not a threat. Therefore, the invasion was unnecessary. You don’t want to face up to that, so you keep going back to the assumptions BEFORE this mess.

But it doesn’t work… the whole world has seen that Bush invaded a country that posed no threat to us at all, i.e. a “war of aggression.” Which we specifically promised never to do.

I’m sorry @@ that we are not “entertaining” you. Our bad. Tell you what, once your neocons come up with the least bit of of a response to any of our points, we’ll find new ones. I understand that you think reality has to entertain you. Unfortunately the world does not work that way. It’s too bad that you’re such a vacuous little twit, but hey, at least you have a useful job, unlike the rest of the neocons here.

Yeah, Muff, I know you have a son. One day he’ll make some shrink very happy. I won’t bother responding to your claim that Bush is “wiser” than me, I’ll just assume it’s a joke. As is the rest of you.

I’ll leave y’all to keep making porn jokes together, since it’s the highlight of Stalk’s, Muff’s and @@’s weekends. Toodles!

Buy Danish,

There’s another site out there where immature kids like rushncap go to have their first “adult” encounter with a sort of cyber surrogate. The “teacher” for the various adult encounters is named Midori, but she’s far too creative to be our resident parrot. Guess who one of the “students” is? If you guessed rushncap you win!

I guess he is going to have a good time with Montrell Jordan though. Sounds like quite a party.

Jordan fired a .357 handgun into a crowd at an HCC dance after a fight broke out, and D.D. Davis of Franklin, La., was killed by the shot. Davis had not been involved in the fight, according to several witnesses who testified.

So nice to see that so many of the sane people, (rushncap, midori) are still here telling the truth.

It’s also nice (in a far different way) to see idiots (like Danish, RW, whatever Andy’s using as a name) stick to the belief that the US invaded Iraq over WMDs, or spreading democracy, or mushrom clouds, or to show his Daddy up, or just to show we could. Which we couldn’t. 100s of billions of dollars and thousands of lives wasted because Bush, Cheney and Rummy (to name a few) had immense delusions of grandeur and absolutely no plan.

You useless idiots still don’t realize that the Iraq war has made the terror threat to the US and the world as bad as it has ever been.

And guess what?? I’ve just moved to Atlanta. Not Cobb County or Athens. Atlanta the city. Open up your stupid blog RW and I’ll prove it. Hee hee!

Impeacn Bush and Cheney. Send them to Guantanamo. Nancy Pelosi isn’t my first choice for President but she’s far better than what we have now.

I can’t WAIT until Monday. I always enjoy reading a pile of idiots defend the absolutely indefensible

How sweet! N-GA is rushncap’s Sir Lancelot, although he is more valet than Knight.

N-GA,

Will you lay down your cape for rushncap to walk over so his little feet don’t touch the floor of the birdcage?

Maybe get his reading material ready for him?

Tend to his squirt pistol?

finch,

I can go on my blog right now and prove I’m posting from Toledo, Shanghai, and Sydney on back to back to back posts. My blog has never been closed, moron and it’s impossible for me to block anyone from the comment section like you hallucinated when you got liquored up and had your stint as Sara. Who the fVck cares where you live, freak? You’ll be just as crazy as always and this being the internet you can proudly display your lunacy from any library you stumble in to.

NG-A,

If my words are so impotent why are trying to scratch them off your computer screen and screaming like a wounded goat? Why don’t you meet up with finch? He lives in the actual City of Atlanta dontchaknow?

rushncap:

Unlike you, I don’t require apologies. I’m sometimes entertained by the liberals here, but only in the absurdities they post. Some of them are unbelievably funny.

When you speak of your (the liberals) points; surely you realize that responding to the same lame points over and over again leaves your (the liberals) points blunted by comparison.

You speculated on a Vietnam comparison at 11:36 - It’s been done to death by other liberals.

You discussed Dick Cheney and compared him to a mafioso - Been there, done that.

You stroked yourself @ 1:30 - You do that all too often.

You whined @ 2:05 - Again, all too often.

You comically set yourself up to take a fall at 2:23 - See 2:05

You childishly debated with yourself @ 2:27 - See 2:05 & 2:23

You then tried to deny the fall you took @ 2:23 - See 2:05, 2:23 again. Add 2:27

You reached out to a friend to help you out of the hold you dug for yourself @ 2:57 - See 2:05, blah, blah, & blah.

You acted just like Midori @ 3:01 - See Midori blah, blah, blah, blah.

You reached out again @ 3:09

I’m going to stop referring back now, it’s tedious.

You claimed a smackdown based on your friends argument, which was clearly flawed, in my opinion, because Saddam HAD used chemical weapons and chlorine is pretty common in a modern society.

You whined again @ 3:33

You whined again @ 4:31

You attempted a personal insult @ 5:17

You repeated the same lame claims that every other liberal here repeats daily @ 5:30. Even you got to tired to continue.

You thanked LHU for repeating your 3 State Iraq solution that the Iraqis don’t want @ 5:40

You called Bush an idiot @ 5:50

You attempted to have Buy Danish share your guilt of something you felt the government had done some 25+ years ago @ 5:57.

You avoided, or asked a question @ 6:12. Not sure which.

You again attempted to get Buy Danish to share in your guilt @ 6:28.

You said goodbye @ 6:32.

You condescended or just descended @ 6:37. That was after you had said goodbye @ 6:32.

You came back @ 7:07 to brag on all the points you had made throughout the day here. Again, after you had said goodbye @ 6:32.

So, do you want to go through the above and point out these “thought provoking” posts you made today, and claim to

It sure enough tells us all we need to know about Mr. Stroker, this lib spends the whole week locked up in paranoia about Bush taking away his “freedom” but then Friday night comes and he’s telling everyone how to live their life, like some wanna be dictator.

And, of course, he thinks we should all live our lives the same way that things go down in his little bubble world.

How boring.

7:21 thru 9:03…simply pathetic. It’s like a little cell of Nazis hiding in a dimly lit flat playing spin-the-bottle. They kiss one another with their dirty little mouths, then trade slogans while complementing one another on their hatred of their fellow man.

Definitely not God’s chosen ones.

Mountain Boy: You sound jealous.

Never mind the fact that it’s kind of a weird fantasy to begin with, what sort of freak would imagine participants of a blog “kissing” eachother, but then to go and get mad about it too?

WTF?

Hey maybe now that finchie’s in town, you can start your own little kissing ensemble and stick your tongues out at the Conservatives together.

Weirdo.

Ooooooooo…….looks like the wingnut hoarde is restless. Rushncap’s got em all goosesteppin single file like the Pied Piper roundin up another cadre of diseased rats.

The partial British military withdrawal from southern Iraq announced by Tony Blair this week follows political and military failure, and is not because of any improvement in local security, say specialists on Iraq.

In a comment entitled “The British Defeat in Iraq” the pre-eminent American analyst on Iraq, Anthony Cordesman of the Centre for Strategic and International Studies, in Washington, asserts that British forces lost control of the situation in and around Basra by the second half of 2005.

Mr Cordesman says that while the British won some tactical clashes in Basra and Maysan province in 2004, that “did not stop Islamists from taking more local political power and controlling security at the neighbourhood level when British troops were not present”. As a result, southern Iraq has, in effect, long been under the control of the Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq (Sciri) and the so-called “Sadrist” factions.

Mr Blair said for three years Britain had worked to create, train and equip Iraqi Security Forces capable of taking on the security of the country themselves. But Mr Cordesman concludes: “The Iraqi forces that Britain helped create in the area were little more than an extension of Shia Islamist control by other means.”

The British control of southern Iraq was precarious from the beginning. Its forces had neither experience of the areas in which they were operating nor reliable local allies. Like the Americans in Baghdad, they failed to stop the mass looting of Basra on the fall of Saddam Hussein and never established law and order.

Yup, they are already beginning to write those history books covering the DEFEAT of western forces in Iraq. Everyone but a Bushbot can see the writing on the
