Wrong. We should never have gone in, in the first place. Water seeks its own level. We can't run another nation. Hell, we can barely run our own. We're broke. Time to let Iraq handle its own affairs, if it can.

Our defeat and occupation of Japan and Germany worked out pretty well, though, and South Korea is doing pretty well, too.

It took The United States 230 years to build the finest fighting force in history and you expect Iraq to to do it in less than 10 years?

Well now, they did receive the finest training now, didn't they?

Now they're NOW supporting the party that Filibustered the 1964 Voting Rights Act.

They're supporting the party that came up with Jim Crowe, the party that supported Segregation, that fought forced integration and bussing.

They support the party behind the KKK.

They support the party thats responsible for places like Cabrini Green, Robert Taylor Homes, Magnolia Place in New Orleans and every inner city neighborhood in America

CONservatives, the base of the current GOP.. You know CONfederates?

It doesn't matter. You van't build a professional army, from scratch, in 7-8 years.

Especially when the last 3-4 were spent leaving.
 
Re: Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

The wasted blood and treasure is enough to make you weep. Once you start down this road you should see it through. This is starting to remind me of Viet Nam and people desperately trying to get on choppers.

You mean those F-16's going there are just going to be decorative? :lamo

People said Iraq would be Bush's Vietnam.

Why didn't they pick up a rifle and help the Iraqi cause?

you know, stand their ground?
 
Re: Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

Just a friendly reminder ... you must've forgotten to answer yesterday ... unless ...................

Sorry, was it Obama invading on false premises? Oh no, it was the guy who Daddy Saddam tried to kill. Like the economy, you guys trash something then wonder why Dems haven't fixed it better or faster, as you do EVERYTHING to hamper the black, Kenyan, Muslim....


AGAIN, CONservative policy NEVER works, anytime, anywhere, EVER!
 
Re: Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

The Democrats turned it into Vietnam. Couodn't wait to do so and are proud that things turned out as they have. Truly disgusting!

He was honest and competent.

Lack of discipline, leaderships, unit cohesion. Those things don't occur by themselves.

AGAIN ...... so exactly how is Obama's Iraq policy working?
You answer the same way again and we'll know you're flummoxed again.
Keep that in mind.

World war v Iraq invasion on false premises?
 
Re: Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

This is what happens when you tell the enemy exactly when you're going to break camp and go home.

This is what happens when you invade a country for political gain.

Got it, I point out CONservative policy NEVER works, and you go back to Obama? The guy inheriting Bush's failed invasion on false premises? The guy who has always stated it was dumb to invade? Yeah, it's Obama's fault *shaking head*

Iraq 'policy' will NEVER work, be it Obama, MSame, Romney, Palin, Rushbo, etc... Weird you don't grasp that
 
Re: Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

This is what happens when you undermine the efforts of our armed forces for political gains.

No, they happen when a group invades on false premises with ZERO plans beyond the invasion... Flowers and chocolates huh?
 
Re: Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

He really didn't have any air force left. But we kept flying over time and time again. Not to mention other methods.

The point is as long as Sadaam was there, conflict was inevitiable. Same goes for North Korea or Iran or CHina for that matter. So long as evil people are in charge, conflict with good people are inevitable.
