At Home Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Bush is going to announce that's going to "reduce" the length of deployment from 15 months to 12 months. You know, go from the extended deployment to the normal one. Hooray! Yeah, but too bad you have to go on seven or eight of them though.
Dobbs 3K Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 Go on 7 or 8 and then kill yourself, or suffer through a lifetime of mental disorders. That's OK, though, these guys can handle it:

godthedog Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 i was expecting more after a few days' absence--either more substance or something that was better at being inflammatory. this was neither trollop nor cunt, just sort of middling.
BorneAgain Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 It did seem like either a stock response (or perhaps a satire on what extreme right-wingers say anyway). Back on topic, Shites are still fighting in Sadr city and there's been some mortar attacks on the Green Zone, but the latter's been happening for a while.
Atticus Chaos Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 Bush on the latest torture allegations and white house involvment "And yes, I'm aware our national security team met on this issue. And I approved." Is he aware he's just confessed to being a war criminal?
SuperJerk Posted April 12, 2008 Report Posted April 12, 2008 US Troops Suffer Worst Week This Year By ROBERT H. REID – 55 minutes ago BAGHDAD (AP) — A roadside bomb killed an American soldier in Baghdad on Saturday, capping the bloodiest week for U.S. troops in Iraq this year. Clashes persisted in Shiite areas, even as the biggest Shiite militia sought to rein in its fighters. At least 13 Shiite militants were killed in the latest clashes in Baghdad's militia stronghold of Sadr City, the U.S. military said. Iraqi police said seven civilians also died in fighting, which erupted Friday night and tapered off Saturday. The U.S. military said the American soldier was killed in a blast Saturday morning in northwestern Baghdad but did not say whether Shiite militiamen were responsible. The death raised to at least 19 the number of American troopers killed in Iraq since last Sunday. American casualties have risen with an outbreak of fighting in Baghdad between U.S. and Iraqi forces and the largest Shiite militia — the Mahdi Army of anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. Al-Sadr, who is believed to be in Iran, repeated on Saturday his demand for American soldiers to leave the country and urged his fighters not to target fellow Iraqis "unless they are helping the (U.S.) occupation." Al-Sadr also blamed the Americans and their Iraqi allies for the assassination Friday of one of his top aides, Riyadh al-Nouri, director of his office in the Shiite holy city of Najaf. Gunmen ambushed al-Nouri as he was returning home from Friday prayers, and al-Sadr followers shouted anti-American slogans at his funeral in Najaf. Despite the strident rhetoric, however, there were signs that al-Sadr was trying to calm his militia to avoid all-out war with the Americans. Al-Sadr is also under pressure from Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, also a Shiite, to disband the Mahdi Army or face a ban from politics. Sadrist officials told The Associated Press they had received orders from their headquarters in Najaf to avoid confrontations with Iraqi and U.S. forces unless the Americans try to move deep into Sadr City, which has been under siege for two weeks. The officials said the Sadrist leadership was concerned that the ongoing clashes were turning into a war of attrition that was weakening the movement and undermining support within its Shiite power base. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not supposed to discuss policy with outsiders. In a move to bolster its image among Sadr City residents, the government Saturday lifted a ban on entering and leaving the district, home to some 2.5 million people. Police announced that one of the entrances had been opened to motor traffic. Army patrols warned residents through loudspeakers to keep off the streets, saying the rebels had planted roadside bombs which needed to be cleared by the security forces. Elsewhere, Iraqi soldiers acting on tips from detained Shiite militiamen found 14 bodies that had been buried in a field south of Baghdad, officials said Saturday. It was the second discovery this week of mass graves in the area, raising to 45 the number of bodies located there. The victims are believed to have been killed more than a year ago as part of a cycle of retaliatory violence between Shiites and Sunnis that has since ebbed. Recent clashes in the Baghdad area have severely strained a unilateral truce which al-Sadr imposed on the Mahdi Army last August. He ordered the standdown to allow time to reorganize the force and purge criminal factions that had tarnished the image of his movement. U.S. officials have acknowledged that al-Sadr's truce, along with the Sunni Arab revolt against al-Qaida, had played a major role in reducing American and Iraqi deaths, especially in the Baghdad area. With renewed Shiite militia fighting, Baghdad is now accounting for a growing number of American casualties. Last month, 61 percent of the U.S. military deaths occurred in Baghdad, compared with 28 percent in February and 47 percent in April, 2007, according to figures compiled by The Associated Press. Fighting in Baghdad broke out following last month's ill-prepared Iraqi government offensive against Shiite militias and criminal gangs in the southern city of Basra. The offensive stalled in the face of fierce resistance by the militias, whose allies in the capital showered rockets and mortars on the U.S.-controlled Green Zone. Although fighting has eased in Basra, U.S. and Iraqi troops have been pressing militias in Baghdad's Sadr City to drive them beyond rocket range to the Green Zone. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gkx-3oY...s98w8wD900G2KG0

Jorge Gorgeous Posted April 13, 2008 Report Posted April 13, 2008 It's cute how you all assume I'm not deadly serious. Nothing cute here, I'm operating under the assumption that you ARE deadly serious. It's weird. I can't fathom believing some of the things you believe. You aren't a conservative, you're something else. What happened to you? I'm not trying to be clever, or a jerk, or anything like that. I honestly want to know what happened to you that makes you the way that you are.

Guest Posted April 13, 2008 Report Posted April 13, 2008 If anyone's got a problem with what Marney said, use the report button. Thank you. If you feel like someone's trolling, the way to have it taken care of is not to respond to it. If nobody responds, I'll get rid of the unnecessary comment when I get there, and in this case, I would've. Too late now.
Firestarter Posted April 14, 2008 Report Posted April 14, 2008 Like I said, I was deadly serious. I can back up that allegation in every aspect - with the documented words of Joe Biden (a Democrat), Reverend Peterson (a black), Abd al-Rahman al-Rashid (a Mohammedan), Bruce Carroll, (a homosexual), and Alan Dershowitz (a liberal). Y'all want to keep playing identity politics, despite how it's fucked you up the ass with your primaries? Fine with me. And guess what? I'll beat you.
