I just can't resist poking at the Republican Party with a sharp stick
I found this news item very interesting. It makes me wonder if the members of the republican party actually talk to each other.
John McCain has declared that we can win the Iraq war by 2013. But according to good old Dubya we already won in 2003. No maybe it's just me but there's something wrong when a political party doesn't know if it has won a war or not. OR maybe all of the Bushies have conveniently forgotten the image of George declaring "mission accomplished" from the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln.
So now they recant an say "we can win". How about someone saying "I don't want to play anymore" and taking their expensive high tech toys home. What has really been accomplished in Iraq? A lot of death both of civilians and military. We went into a sovereign country and illegally dismantled it's government leaving behind civil unrest.
Yes I said illegally. Iraq was a sovereign government. Meaning independent with no need or requirement to answer to or be liked by any other government. The very invasion committed was based on a lie. Yes a lie why do you think he was looking for someone to blame it on? Unfortunately for Bush he picked a scapegoat smarter then he was since Condi kept documentation.
So now we have a face saving effort by McCain. People are tired of hearing the war on terror rhetoric. People are tired of picking up the paper to see reports of more young lives lost. The War or terror has lost its appeal. McCain is left to try to salvage the situation.
He has basically said one of two things with his declaration.
One the president and his advisors are flat out liars, or two the president and his advisors are a bunch of idiots since they were too moronic to know we are at war.

Hi Cheryl,
No worries...the big sloppy mess will be cleaned up just fine once mankind has gone ahead and COMPLETELY ANNIHILATED ITSELF. And for what...GREED and SELFISH Desires?
Meanwhile the average citizen is much too concerned with the new car they have their eye on...or that lyposuction they have been saving for....or how hard it is to pay bills(have you tried them dirt cookies yet?)...or that new britney spears cd...and on and on and on....ANYTHING BUT REALITY!

A dead child is a dead child period no matter how that child dies. How many thousands of families are suffering because of dead children caused by a bunch of political bullcrap. In case people have truly been sleeping for the past 8 years the question is what rights?!?!? when you can be thrown in jail indefinitely without benefit of counsel because you are a suspected "terrorist". When your own government domestically spies on you in under the guise of fighting terrorists. When the people ha

And we got dragged in to it also, along with the UK and other countries.
Australia should bring it's troops home from Iraq ASAP.

Instead of a fresh new administration-- We have been reduced to hoping for an effective "Clean Up" crew... Damn!

It's just time everyone pulled their head out of the sand, the toilet, Bush's butt or where ever else they may have stuck it to avoid confronting the reality of what the U.S. has done in the past 8 years. People had a chance to stop the madness in 2004 by electing to the presidency someone who had actually been in combat and realized that those "statistics" represented actual lives lost and not figures on a sheet of paper but we had to have four more years of Bush's war. Four more years of you

Recycling bad ideas and trying to re-package them in attractive wrappings... Mc Cain may not be around to see the damage that this foolish endeavour has caused, but horrors like this will echo in our Lives for years to come... If we don't stop this insanity now...
