Re: Iraq vote leaves Dems looking like the losers Politicized nonsense! I'm sure there are those out there that believe that the US should "cut and run" (rightist fantasy...wish fulfillment), but that is Rushbuttian propaganda, as opposed to reality. As a Centrist, I have yet to hear anyone among those despised "liberals" (well, there may be some out there out of the mainsteam, but there are also some rightists who believe Hillary is the Anti-Christ...personally I think the AC is Rush Limburger.). The simple reality, and one that should be obvious, is that we are stuck in Iraq for whatever reasons that I shall not go into here, and the current "reality" needs to be handled constructively. Bush got us in there, but regardless of the past, which is moot at this point, the problem needs to be dealt with constructively. Continuing to rag on politics, blame the Libs or the neo-cons, let's get the d**n job finished and get our people out of Iraq before it blows like VN did. We really do not want to get involved in some such nonsense in the middle of some freakin' desert. Fer ole Pete's sake! We fought WWII for 4 years, but here we are in Iraq for 3 already with no end in sight! One pissant little suburb of a country! (Shades of FDR!) I think the Libs, Dems, whatever...could do as good a job as the present admin. I do believe we need some fresh input however. When I can sit in front of my TV during any Bush speech (such as tonight's) and can mouth almost word for word what he says, perhaps he's said the same things too many times. |
