Good to know.

I give him credit for creating a quagmire.

So, the war is -not- won.

How/why do we -not- have to win the war in Iraq?
How/why is it OK to lose in Iraq?
DO we have to win the war in Iraq?
Is it NOT OK to lose in Iraq?

The war is over. Like I said before what we have now is an occupation.

Oh, I see...

So, there IS no war in Iraq.

Its amazing what you people will do to avoid these questions.

The fact that you cannot and/or will not answer them is telling.

So it sounds from the tone of the thread that you guys think that Afghanistan is a war that we don't have to win. I'm not sure if our generals would agree with you but hey, what do I know? I'm just an independent, sorry, a "flaming lefty".

and then.....the terrristsssss will come here and kill your wives, your children and your puppies while Obama passes laws to kill more unborn children and cavorts with gays and lesbians in transexual strip bars all across the United States.....can you be any more melodramatic?

I don't think there's been a post that even remotely conveys that position.
Nice try, tho...

Obama says we have to win in Afghanistan. I, of course, agree.

The question is, given his statement and ther fact that he wants to immediately pull out of Iraq:

How/why do we -not- have to win the war in Iraq?
How/why is it OK to lose in Iraq?
DO we have to win the war in Iraq?
Is it NOT OK to lose in Iraq?

Well?

That's just plain silly.

We The US needs to win any and all wars we engage in.

First you say we are winning and then you say there is a quagmire.......You can't have it both ways.......
