I have justone question to democrats hopeful:
WHY ARE YOU SO DESPERATE TO GET OUR TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ?.........
Is because dems dont have the stomach for war?
Is because dems are so afraid of terrorists that they wanna run away?
Is because dems like to protect terrorists?
If we get out of Iraq and Iran take control of middle east i have one more question for the democrats:
WHERE YOURE GONNA GET THE OIL YOU NEED TO FUEL YOUR LIMOUSINES AND TO MAINTAIN THE ROADS? FROM HUGO CHAVES?

BAGHDAD %u2014 Although Bush administration officials have frequently lashed out at Syria and Iran, accusing it of helping insurgents and militias here, the largest number of foreign fighters and suicide bombers in Iraq come from a third neighbor, Saudi Arabia, according to a senior U.S. military officer and Iraqi lawmakers.

lilwillie:

Who helped the guy who gassed the Kurds get in power? Who armed him with weapons? Who supported him while he was gassing the Kurds?

Thats right, it was the US. The US is famous for supporting brutal dictators as long as they are friendly to our corporations or serve our needs.

There are countless examples. As one, it was the US that led the coup to overthrow popular, elected Mossadeq in Iran when he wanted to nationalize the ir own Oil. We installed the brutal Shah of Iran and got their Oil under our control. The blowback was the rise of Isamic fundamentalism.

The point is not that Saddam was evil (duh), but what to do about it. It was obvious Bush was lying about WMDs, and his reason for invading was certainly not because he wanted to help the poor Iraqi people (LOL!). The draftdogers Cheney-Bush were eager to use middleclass troops as cannon fodder for their imperial wars for oil and regional dominance (read the PNAC papers!).

Bush/Cheney exploited 611 to invade Iraq, it was clear that it would fuel American resentment in the middle east, it was clear that there would be backlash, it was clear that it would take our attention and resources off of Osama and Al Qaida.

Osama is laughing at Bush for his Folly. We have to pay the price, and watch as Bush/Cheney are running our nation into the ground.

mh4cbs1.....................
Are you a member of al-qaeda? You speak just like one of those brain washed sick mind terrorists. If you dont know the truth i will tell you: Itdoenst matter if we didnt find WMD in Iraq because SADDAM was a WMD himself, he killed 10k kurdish in a single attack......
The other truth you dont know is: We didnt invade IRAQ to search for WMD but to catch the real mastermind of al-qaeda:SADDAM HUSSEIN.
