I sure hope Obama does better too. He surely can''''t do any worse than the bumbling chimp and his chimpettes with delusions of granduer.

Please everyone take this as humorously as it is intended...but, this is ironic.

Two years ago, I told my wife,
"I''d vote for a monkey this next election."
Looks like I''m going to get my wish.

I know...very un-PC :-)

The US service men and woment AND colition forces did a great job when then went into Afghanistan.

Then Bonehead Bush took his eye of the ball.

Now, the Taliban have re-constituted and stronger than ever.
Al Qaeda has re-constituted and stronger than ever.
Iraq turned out to be a great recruitment program for Al Qaeda.
The poppy fields had a bumper cash crop this year.

God, I hop OBAMA does better.

sure we can bash repubs all day, but the dems voted for both wars (and i''m one those hated libs). so both sides are *** US and we are taking it. and thne of course when the vets get back they are put in deplorable housing and medical facilites. again do we as a nation do anything more than write a few lines on blogs? nope. so 100 years from now we''ll still be fighting "the good fight" claiming victory, but by then we''ll have a commie for prez and we''ll all be in jails or chruches

Posted by frootloop47 at 08:08 AM : Jul 03, 2008, "Well, it took 6 years, but this boneheaded, stubborn "Commander and Thief" finally figured out the fights in Afghanistan. Well, kinda tooooo late, ''''cause he stirred up some much c rap in Iraq, it''''s going to take a decade to straighten that out."

I second that., I have NEVER been in favor of the Iraqi War. I argued against Iraq with many "Patriotic Americans", and was called the many thing others here spew out. GWB should have NEVER started that mess.

My opposition was not one of patriotism in Iraq, but one of common sense. Common sense into the destabilization of that entire area, as is occurring now, thanks to GWB and crew.

There were other ways to topple Sadam, Odie and others. They are called "snipers".

The CIA''s and America''s biggest victory in Afghanistan against terrorism was squandered by schrub & co. -

to go off nation-building in iraq -

our troops were ordered to leave and sent on to where the oil was -

they created a new terrorist training ground in iraq
and allowed the taliban to recover

and even gave old osama a break to find a new cave -

back to square one - thank you bushit!

Old Dubya wont have control after 1/20/09, unless he tries have himself declared "president for life" and declares martial law.

Of course he does know that all of us SECOND AMENDMENT TYPES are armed and would resist a fascist takeover by him and DARTH VADER.

Wineberry, I agree!! I''m afraid what Bush might do before he out of "control". Attack Iran? Christ! That''s all we''d need.

I''m afraid this nutjob is going to pull a bunch of *** before he leaves office such as sending more troops to Afghanistan, bringing that research lab to the States from Plum Island, etc. He has been trying to cut billions of dollars of funds from Medicare and Medicaid but Congress has been blocking him on that. So now Bush has cut doctors pay by 10%. He''s got to be the biggest dirtbag for a president we''ve ever had.

This militaristic, bonehead administration reflects the principles of the old Confederacy and with the same inept results and waste of good men. These people, these bushites have disgraced and debilitated our Republic with their yahooism. Impeach them, jail them..let us be done with these morons and regain our America.

You might look less like one yourself, if you could post some logical reasons as to why you might disagree with skyk''s points and conclusions.

Imagine that - Afghanistan coming back to bite Bushit for Brains in the arse!

Republicans stand up and have the nerve to say that Obama doen''t have a track record and they actually have the Ballss to claim Bushit record - which is all FAILURE! Just look at his past - failure after failure that Daddy''s friends had to help him out of.

Republicans like failure - That''s why they like McBush.

I say republicans should be stamped out like the disease AIDS - they are draining America like the disease drains life from a person.

Republicans have Shiite for Brains!

"One reason why there have been more deaths is because Bush/Cheney are making to much money from no bid contracts. Our troops lives are meaningless to the moronic duo! Oh wait he did give up golf out of respect to those that have died and have been wounded.

Your frustration is indeed warranted, but part of the reason these idiots can literally get away with murder is because many people have mistakenly accepted Bush''s core lie, that Al Qaeda is "the enemy".

Al Qaeda is a CIA construct, doing their bidding, and acting as the boogie man for Bush. Not only is the evidence public information, I have also posted several times the words of the late British foreign affairs minister Robin Cook, who testified so before the House of commons in England.

It is in fact Bush who is the real enemy, "Al CIAda''s" score of dead Americans is less than Bush''s, as is their score of dead, displaced, tortured, and mutilated Iraqis. Not to forget to mention the destruction of our constitution, and the abrogation of the rights guaranteed in it, which is directly Bush''s fault.

On the scorecard of danger done to America, Bush wins by any measure.

Anyone who can watch and listen to this HORRIBLE INCOMPETENT little man and NOT feel sick just isn''t American. We could have had a competent leader in either Al Gore or John Kerry, instead we have this loser making excuses and PRETENDING. He walked away from the fight in Afganistan, put our troops into a Nation that HAD no Al Queda in it and posed NO threat to us. After nearly 6 years there our troops are simply worn out and NOW we find the people who Attacked us, the REAL enemy, is not only back, but back as strong as ever. BILLIONS of Dollars WASTED, THOUSANDS of LIVES wasted and we''re right back were we started.
