You know what's even worse?
The fact that 72% of us citizens disagree with Bush, and yet he is doing exactly what we don't want him to do. He works for us, not the other way around, he is acting like a dictator not a president.
you seem to forget we went into this war under false evidence, we were lied to, and we know it, and we want it ended.
If you think 20k more troops is going to stop a civil war that has been going on in one way or another for a 1000 years or more you are dreaming and you beleive everything the right wing tells you.
Posted by jason on January 24, 2007 06:37 PMWhat is it with these people who just buy the words of the Dems that they "were lied to." Am I the only person in this country who bothered to watch the presentation of the Bush administration's evidence against Iraq? I seem to remember some of the key evidence was satellite photos of truck trailers in the desert. I'm not an expert on weaponry, but fail to see how a trailer in the desert=evidence of WMD's. The Dem's need to give up this retroactive doctoring of the past and admit that not one of them had their head far enough out of their rear to question how this was in any way evidence of WMD's. On a side note, political polls are not really a solid basis for debate as they are typically conducted in an extremely biased manner and hardly reflect the opinon of anyone other than the survey polulation. This country is going to be in a deep hole until we kick all Republocrats out of office and replace them with politicians that represent a demographic other than old, rich white folks.

Like critising a bad decision is what he finds appalling, not the bad decision.
Going to war against advice and against everybody in the security council but the UK, he doesn't find appalling, but mentioning it he does.
Is this like some kind of "hate the sin not the sinner" thing?
We should blame the blamer, but not the blameworthy?
p.s. Islamists are theocrats, not facists. Facists are also totalitarian, but they are nationalists that team up with industry, not theocrats that want religious domination.
Posted by on January 25, 2007 12:16 PMAre we still using the term "Islamic Fascists?" I thought that had gone out of vogue, along with parroting other obviously misleading phrases invented by Fox News.
I thought now we were talking about the "Decisive Ideological Struggle of Our Times." If you're going to blindly repeat what other people tell you to, at least try to stay current, won't you?
