The principaled do things that appear stupid sometimes.


===================================
This could be true, but Juniorbush sacking Rummy after the election was more a case of the stupid doing the long overdue at a time when it would bring the least possible benefit.

You will go blind looking for principles among the Bushites. They are as devoid of them as an elephant is of eels.

  Buh-Bye, Rummy  Juniorbush said he didn't announce Rummy's resignation until now because he didn't want to "politicize" the election.

Hunh?  God Forfend an election should be politicized!

The three Stooges -Juniorbush, Rummy and Dickhead- were clearly incompetent about how little they knew about the situation in Iraq. Following this, they were droolingly incompetent about how little they knew about how Iraqi society was likely to fly apart when Saddam was gone.

But now they have shown that they were even incompetent about how long they had to actually pull off their conquest of Iraq. Clearly, 2006 was as long as they could possibly be given.

3000 dead American troops, many more maimed and driven mad, and great whacking fistfulls of dollars, arms and ammo are also more than the people will tolerate, but they should at least have understood the American people.

What a sad, sad bunch of stooges they have turned out to be.

  It's morning in America! 

Get hosed.
And take your damned Prometheus with you.

It is the Why that won the publics support , I do not consider this inconsequential.

=======================================
No, it isn't. Not even close.

The Americans supported the conquest of Iraq because thet were told that Saddam had nuclear, biological and chemical weapons that would be used against the American people unless we elected Juniorbush's sorry butt. None of this was actually TRUE, and now most people oppose the invasion, because it was the wrong idea carried out with major incompetence.

The Iraqi public supports the US occupation far less than the Americams do. 65% of them favor shooting at an American soldier i9n their country.

That's the best you can do, Bozo?

Iriquis were voteing recently and when the people had spoken they had a Government  , this is not garunteed to work perfectly but it is way better than the alternatives.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh it is, is it?

Something like 600,000 Iraqis are DEAD as a result of Juniorbush's dumbass conquest, and there is a civil war raging in Iraq. Many Iraqis don't have clean water or electricity, still, after all the money Juniorbush has thrown at Halliburton and whomever to improve things. There is no end in sight to the huge whacking MESS that these asshole Republicans have visited on Iraq and its unflrtunate people.

NO Iraqis were any threat to the US. Invading Iraq only expanded the battleground for the so-called " war on Terror", providing them all sorts of weapons to kill US troops with.

3000 American soldiers are dead.

Hundreds of billions of dollars have been pissed away. Money that any decent Republican would return to you as a tax cut. But Juniorbush isn't decent, and is a Republican only because this is the party that they chose for their stooge to run on.

So no, Iraqis are NOT better off. The US is NOT better off.

It's likely that Halliburton and Dickhead Cheney are better off.

As fopr Chalabi, he's simply an opportunist. He is not on anyone's side but his own. I doubt that he will die of natural causes,

My job does not directly kill anyone , never has been that.

But I have made certain that F-15s would fire their missles.
I have made certain that Paratroopers could jump from C-141s
I have ensured that the Fuel would flow in an AC-130.

Back when I was in the military my job was to keep my ship afloat and in good condition to bombard a beach with 5" shells weighing seventy five pounds each.


None of these are good career choices for a Mennonite , good thing I am Babtist (mostly).
=====================================================================
In your dreams, what you do must be done.

It makes no difference where that beach was, it just needed shelling. The people living there deserved to die. It is a good thing that you were there to kill them, otherwise, they might have.....

done what, exactly?

Not been targets? Sneaked into the US and taken American Jobs?
===============================

How would that have affected any of us in the least? (Other than us having to pay through the noise for the F-15's and the bombs and all that wasted fuel), I mean)

Even if you did not work for the current Fascist War Machine, you would have found a job somewhere. The folks at the local Wall*Mart would still have their jobs.

I think you should either choose to be a mennonite (you can spell Mennonite) or learn how to spell Baptist.

It is always best never to be anything you cannot spell.


War is a business. A huge, whacking, destructive stupid business that always has a negative balance sheet.

Had there been no US intervention in Afghanistan, the USSR would have still lost, it would have still collapsed. There would have been no Al Qaeda, and bin Laden would be behind a desk somewhere, ordering Pakis about.
