Comments on: Bipartisan Opposition To Bush Troop Surge

Key Republicans Join Top Democrats In Arguing Against Proposal To Increase U.S. Troop Levels In Iraq

Who was it who helped the US fight our Revolutionary War? Oh, that's right - NO ONE. I have to agree with Reid, it's time for the Iraqis to fight for their own damned freedom.

Why are we even over there?! If we (meaning Dubbyuh) had gone after the real criminal behind 9/11 instead of engaging in an infantile revenge fantasy (anyone remember "Saddam Hussein tried to kill my daddy"?) we would not now be fueling Bush's obsessive war games with the bodies of our fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons, and daughters.

And speaking of daughters, aren't the Bush twins of an age to join the military? Let's send them over to fight and be mutilated or killed, and see how quickly Dubbyuh wakes up to the brutal realities of war.

lol
you beat me to it with that bigger shovel frankly6!

it seems bill clinton's defintion of an extremist ideologue is being manisfested in george bush.

paraphrasing what clinton said in a speech at georgetown:
a conservative is someone who digs themselves into a hole and asks for help out of it. an ideologue asks for a bigger shovel.

bush is asking for his bigger shovel!

the bible says to agree with your enemy while you're in the way with him. why would it say that? it says it because you can pursuade people better through agreement than with violence. bush's problem is that it's his way or no way. how can those problems be solved if you won't even talk to the people involved? making ultimatums and requirements for discussions makes no sense at all!

Yeah right, more than enough to thwart King George's "plan", forget that it takes MONTHS to train and recruit because we don't HAVE 20,000 we can simply send over.
King George's days of free spending our money like a drunken slvt are FINISHED. Iraq won't bother trying to take control, why should they? they have *US* idiots footing the bills for their security, policing, "training" fixing their schools, water, electric, roads and infrastructure.
We are an annoyance but we come with LOADS of cash and free food while they sit on the richest oil fields in the world and pay nothing while OUR debt has doubled.

Bush has shown that the only thing he's good at is digging us into huge holes. Now he's just asking for a bigger shovel.

When all you bumper-sticker patriots start calling for raising taxes to pay for this war and a draft to fight it, maybe then you'll be taken seriously. Your all for staying the course as long as you don't have to pay or fight. Right now we're borrowing the money from China and sending the children of the poor to fight. Put up or shut up.
