EricMM Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 Now he blames the congress for not passing a spending dealie. It will probably go back and forth like this for a while. Eventually congress is supposed to cave, or so I hear.
Dobbs 3K Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 I still think it's basically Bush trying to drag this out 'til he leaves office, so he can't take the blame for us leaving Iraq, and that whole country falling into chaos.
EricMM Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 Exactly. It's a cheap trick, but not one easy to stop. We can pull out EARLIER, but then he'll just blame all the ensuing mayhem on the congress.
Dobbs 3K Posted April 26, 2007 Report Posted April 26, 2007 I just don't get how all these Republicans can still be in favor of staying in Iraq. I guess they don't value their jobs too highly. I do think the Democrats should have avoided putting all that pork in the bill, though. It would be one less thing for the President and the GOP to bitch about.
Dr. Zaius Posted April 30, 2007 Report Posted April 30, 2007 I just don't get how all these Republicans can still be in favor of staying in Iraq. I guess they don't value their jobs too highly. Either they actually think they're right, or they think they can win the voters back by November 08 if they make the Democrats sound like they don't SUPPORT THE TROOPS™. (This is how this is being framed after all, not as a debate about the war, but whether or not Congress will SUPPORT THE TROOPS™.)
SamoaRowe Posted April 30, 2007 Report Posted April 30, 2007 Bringing troops home to the safety of America seems pretty supportive to me, but I'm probably one of those anti-American liberals ® trying to give comfort and aide to the enemy.
Dobbs 3K Posted April 30, 2007 Report Posted April 30, 2007 "But our troops want to stay in Iraq and finish the job!"
Art Sandusky Posted April 30, 2007 Report Posted April 30, 2007 I think the only soldiers that want to stay over there were the ones who joined so they could yell "BOOM! HEADSHOT!" for real.
snuffbox Posted April 30, 2007 Report Posted April 30, 2007 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18399660/ Thank God for the Bush Jr Administration.
Art Sandusky Posted May 1, 2007 Report Posted May 1, 2007 For those curious, it averages out to a terrorist attack somewhere in the world every 37 minutes. That can't possibly be considered progress.
World's Worst Man Posted May 1, 2007 Report Posted May 1, 2007 If the attacks don't happen to the US, they don't count.
Gary Floyd Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 Right now, I have this to say: Fuck you George W. Bush. Fuck you.
Dobbs 3K Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 Eh, knew it was going to happen. Not really much to get excited about.
snuffbox Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 A huge increase in terrorism after this Administration fumbled the handling of the worst attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor is 'nothing to get excited about'? I know it's not the same as bumping into a Mexican on the sidewalk or anything like that but still seems like kind of a big deal.
Art Sandusky Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 Eh, knew it was going to happen. Not really much to get excited about. Seriously, because you're a bright guy, sit back and think about what you said. I'm not going to do some baiting shit, I just want to hear some reasoned detail for this argument. It can be done, so don't think I'll automatically disagree.
Dobbs 3K Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 gary floyd was talking about Bush's veto, right? I just meant that everyone saw it coming. The Democrats will just have to keep pressing the President, so he keeps looking worse and worse in the media, until he finally caves.
EricMM Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 What about that, "nothing to get excited about" bit...
snuffbox Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 The liberal media will not allow Bush to look 'worse and worse'.
Dobbs 3K Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 What, I'm supposed to act all shocked and appalled by a veto everyone knew was coming? Please. There's been much worse things to get up in arms about regarding Iraq than one veto by a completely obstinate president, who clearly is unwilling to change his course of action in regards to his war.
Art Sandusky Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 I thought you were talking about the State Department report still. My mistake.
snuffbox Posted May 4, 2007 Report Posted May 4, 2007 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18488585/ Another example of Bush Jr supporting the troops.
Dobbs 3K Posted May 4, 2007 Report Posted May 4, 2007 What, you mean they're not real life GI Joe action figures?
Art Sandusky Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/meast/05/04/...main/index.html Our guys are starting to get weeiiird.
EricMM Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 I guess we shouldn't be surprised really, that we're creating another generation of slightly messed up if not overtly fucked up, shell shocked war vets. I mean, and for what?
Art Sandusky Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 The 2008 Chevrolet Suburban, with class-leading cargo and towing capability.
snuffbox Posted May 5, 2007 Report Posted May 5, 2007 Fortunately, the architects/cheerleaders wont have to worry about any of this so they'll be ready to start something else for the next generation.
snuffbox Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 http://www.local10.com/weather/13267015/de...ia&psp=news It is too bad Bush forgot what the National Guard is for since his stint during the Vietnam Era.
Dobbs 3K Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 This is about Iran, but it ties to this Muslim culture that we're supposed to be so understanding and accepting of: http://www.irinnews.org/report.aspx?reportid=25296
