So what is your great strategy for the Iraq situation? Or are you like the rest of the Liberals and just complaining because it is a repub in office. List your ideas and let's get down to a real discussion of what the consequences may or may not be. - Reply to this comment

What is your proof that the info was "cherry picked" for the dems? I am so tired of folks claiming things to be true, when in fact they have no documentation to back up your statements. Just because you read it in the paper or in some other rag, does NOT make it true. Common folks, lets ask for proof from the press and our elected liars instead of just accepting whatever point of view for which you agree. - Reply to this comment

Don't let the GOP sleight of hand fool you: More troops for an indefinite period doesn't equate to change of strategy, it's more troops to stay to the same course.
Our lame-duck President still has carte blanche with this conflict and he knows it. Another hand-picked Secretary of Defense? Neither innovative nor fresh. Finally acquiescing to "review" his strategy? Equally stale and accurately coined as mere political cover. Results: SOS.
W's legacy is already domestic and foreign death and destruction, and his administration isn't even over! - Reply to this comment
- History will record the years of the Bush Presidency as the bumbling idiots they are. All of them. "W", Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Wolfowitz, et al. What a team. I certainly hope that history will be hard on them. They deserve it. How many dead Americans and Iraqi's can we lay at their feet? Shame on them for their ignorance.
'Nuff said. - Reply to this comment
- Thanks Colin for the deep thought behind your statement.
"We are losing in Iraq".
Frankly, I thought this quite some time ago. It does not take a military mind to know this. Bush knows it too: "things are bad in Iraq". Wow!
Now, could we progress beyond this feeling to actually doing something about it?
Enough talk, some action please.
Jeeeeeeeeeeeeez! - Reply to this comment
- It is one of the enduring ironies of this lame-brained president that he wants history to remember him as principled, strong-minded, and strong-willed when in reality he will be remembered as unprincipled, weak-willed, and simple-minded. Sadly, it took America almost 6 years to realize this.

- "The ideology of the left is, no more wars, conflicts, or aggresion against the enemies that are striving to end the American way of life."
O.K. notblue, explain what Iraq was doing to try and "end the American way of life." You righties imply a lot of carp that you don't like to say outright. Is it your contention that attacking one "rag head" state is as good as any? - Reply to this comment
- "The Dems and Republins saw the same intel before going into Iraq."
Keep up notblue. The intelligence provided to the Dems was "cherry picked" and the administration deliberately misrepresented those aluminum tubes. You're discredited case for war is extremely stale and American's have rejected it. - Reply to this comment
- The Dems and Republins saw the same intel before going into Iraq. The lefts biggest fear is that some leader or politician comes up with a plan for victory in Iraq. That would be tragic for the left as it would change the world and Make Bush's original premise correct. Then the constant bashing could no longer be used as a smokescreen to hide tha fact that the Dems don't have a better plan. Right now the left's plan is withdraw and lose. The ideology of the left is, no more wars, conflicts, or aggresion against the enemies that are striving to end the American way of life. Just withdraw and everything will be ok.
