Cowboys Up

My post is only a comment on you continuing to be boring.

Call me cynical, but about a year ago, Saturday Night Live did a really funny skit where the troops were being "coached" on how to respond to bush. It was a take off of an actual tape of an actual "coaching".

Good grief...I would not say that Bush is the new love in my life...I haven't ever really liked him. In fact, I make fun of him by spelling nukular like he says it. Man...how does it feel to be wrong most of the time...you must be depressed!

My point, which apparently sailed by you, is that many reasons have been given for being in Iraq since we've been there. It's a shell game by this admin. We knew that there most likely no nukular program existed...our investigators in that country told us that. We went anyway. When we found no nukular weapons program, the admin came up with "saddam is a bad man and killed lots of his own people" and then there were reasons after that, too. The war on terror is the current reason given for our current status in that country.

Yeah, I wrote that wrong...it was originally Operation Iraqi Liberation...my bad. Harry Reid = one smart fella...indeed a good person to be compared to.

I particularly like the 90's version...that one is funny. I think I could actually work the problem that is taught in the 80's!

didn't notice that...thank you for pointing that out as I only noticed that the math problem was in spanish so as to depict our classrooms teachers teaching in spanish.

All those reasons were given (except the O.I.L. one) at one time or another by this administration. Some of you on this board have defended one or all of those reasons. BTW, I'm not bitter...I love life and am a happy, optimistic woman. I'm looking forward to my second 50 years on this earth very much! My hormones are fine - just had my annual physical, plus I work for 2 doctors. My mental state, my physical state, and my clarity are better than ever. Plus I am very lucky to live in interesting times.

shoot, let's just kick all those nasty mexicans out of this country so we can get back to learning our 3 Rs.

You're comparing my mentality to Harry Reid's? You mean the majority leader of the United States Senate? I will take that as a complete compliment...thank you Grunt!

which reason...the massive nukular program Iraq had when we invaded their country? they didn't have one. the mass graves?...nope - otherwise, we would be invading darfur and other countries with brutal govt that kill their own people. spreading democracy?...haha...now that is a good one. to stop al qaeda? nope - al qaeda wasn't even in Iraq before we got there and they control al Anbar province now. to fight the war on terror? - another good one since terror groups have grown exponentially since we invaded Iraq. oil? perhaps this is the true reason that no one will admit to. control of the middle region of the very rich oil fields of the middle east. 3739 for that? I wonder. let's not forget that the original name for this mission was "Operation Iraqi Liberation". O.I.L.

I'm afraid your ego has caused your imagination run away with you.

yeah, right...maybe in your vivid imagination at night...

3739 US troops dead... In pursuit of the murderers of our citizens on 9/11??? No! They are still out there.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL....ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AS IF!!

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20566021/ BASRA, Iraq - Iraqi soldiers hoisted the country??™s flag over the Basra palace compound Monday after British troops withdrew from their last garrison in the city, a move that will hand control to an Iraqi force riddled with Shiite militiamen. A British statement said the operation began at 10 p.m. Sunday ???with all British troops arriving at the airport by midday??? Monday. ???There were no clashes or attacks on British forces during the operation. The formal handing-over of the Palaces will happen in the near future,??? British spokesman Maj. Matthew Bird said. The departure of most of the remaining 500-member British force from the palace left the nation??™s second largest city without any multinational presence for the first time since the U.S.-led invasion of 2003. ???We told those (militias) who were fighting the British troops that the Iraqi forces are now in the palaces,??? Lt. Gen. Mohan al-Fireji, the Iraqi commander in the area. He said the last of the British force left about 4:30 a.m. >more of the article at the link < I think it's good news that we (coalition troops) are leaving the fight to the Iraqis. If we could withdraw like this in a way that we leave the fight to trained Iraqis (the Iraqi army) then they can gain their independence and not worry about American colonialism which I believe would be unwelcome. In certain areas we should tell the Iraqi army that we are leaving by a certain date and they had better be ready to defend their own homeland. We should leave one area at a time...much like the GB troops did. One thing in this article that I had forgotten - the # of soldiers from GB in Iraq is so small compared to the number of US soldiers. GB only has 5500 troops over there right now. Kinda redefines the meaning of "coalition" to me.

I give opinions here...just as everyone else does.

After all the documentaries and info out there that I've seen and read, I'm of the mind that one man could not pull this thing off. I believe that someone else - I don't know who - conspired with others and perhaps Oswald to kill JFK. Of course, I can't prove it. Maybe it's just an intuition thing I guess...and my intuition is rarely wrong. I'd like to hear more of what Augielio has to say about it.

ok shnookems...

I think he probably has instructions to keep his mouth shut about it...dems are content to let the repubs take the lead on handling this one.

LOL...probably very true!!!!!

My point was that diplomacy can work...pretty simple, sweetums.

Uh huh...and they will begin eliminating their nukes beginning...hmmm...wait, let me read the article again....................................................................... ................................................................................ ................................................................................ they don't give any dates that they will begin dismantling their program. Maybe that part of the deal just hasn't been struck yet. The barter system...you give us something and we'll give you something in return. That is diplomacy in my book. Money talks - green diplomacy.

You just don't get it. The elected officials that preach to everyone else...the ones that throw stones...the ones that want to legislate values...the ones that judge everyone else for their sins........are indeed themselves misbehaving and the misbehaviors they commit are the very misbehaviors they want to legislate against and preach against. They get elected on the platform of family values. Actually you have Craig, David Vitter, and Mark Foley who have been caught up in scandals recently...who knows who is next. I wonder if any of them were interviewed by Jeff Gannon. It'll be an interesting read!!!!! Maybe even a pictorial along with the interview......
