We sent 30,000 MORE American Troops, VERY tired American Troops into this quagmire. The reason according to a President who has YET to tell us the truth about ANYTHING? They were going to ALLOW the Government of Iraq to make the moves necessary to form a Government. They were going to hold down the violence so Political Solutions could be found. 30,000 MORE American''s are stuck in this Quagmire and THEY AREN''T COMING HOME PEOPLE! You can sit there and make all the excuses you want, try to defend the policy to kingdom come but THEY AREN''T coming home. FIVE years from now you''ll be able to just rerun the same headlines you ran five years ago. NOTHING has changed, NOTHING has gotten any better. The resistence has simply squated down, KNOWING the puppet leaders installed by the US can not do anything about them. THEY LIVE THERE PEOPLE... they are NOT going away and THEY, the PEOPLE of Iraq, must solve this problem. WE can not solve it for them and we can NOT take sides without being the odd man out. WHEN the Corrupt and very EVIL creature a few still call a President started hearing "Voice''s from God" we should have IMMEDIATELY removed the Ditator from office. SIEG HEIL BUSH

Nothing better to say except the same old bigotry towards Christians I see fibonacci. Just another day at the office for you. Whatever makes you feel better right? Obviously nothing else is feeding that void inside of you, so your only resort is to come on an internet forum and try to bait Christians into your silly little games.

Then you wake up the next day and you''re still as empty inside as you were the day before. What a coward. But I do feel sorry for you. I really do

I can prove that the Republicans are making fools out of the Blacks.

The stuff that Obama admitted to in the two books he

wrote is enough to lose him the election. But has

anyone heard anything about either of these writings

by a major National Television Station????

NO! Because they are setting on it until Hillary is

out of the picture and Obama will lose the Presidency

by the largest margine yet. And anyone who can''''''''t

see that and continues to believe otherwise after

reading those two books are being FOOLISH!!!!

They don''t need another Saddam, not when GW Bush, ******** Cheney and the other neo-con pieces of excrement have been doing Saddam''s job for him.

Looks like Sadam is back this is how he started first 1,000 then 10,000 then military rule.

Way to go GOP you got rid of one only to replace him with another.

Oh an Bagdad you are the real enemy of America. You want everyone to think like you so in that said I guess you would be pretty lonely. My guess is you are.

I guess there are no democrats in Iraq to undermine the proper course of action. About time those guys started taking care of thier own country.

What is that belt-fed weapon that Iraqi soldier has? Does anybody know? Maybe after the SCOTUS gets the Second Amendment straight I can buy one of those with my economic stimulus money.

If there were any intention of actually winning this confict there would be a mass hanging of these terrorists. It (the war effort) is just for show to cover up the actions of the oil lobby in the outright thieft of billions in Iraqi ol. Blood for oil and Chaney would not lose a moment of (burbon induced)sleep.

One has to wonder how they identifies the "fighters"...and why ''leaders'' would leave them to their fates when they are said to have suspected the assault was coming...its a punch that has been telegaphed now for weeks.

That is quite a Rambo-esque pose...its the first time I have seen an Iraqi Army action figure....Looks like it was taken from the safety of a military post.

Usually one surrounds a city, then sweeps it for suspects and scoops up any trying to flee. It looks like they missed the al CIAda leaders and rounded up some deadheads--who apparently weren''t familiar with the whole ''holy warrior'' concept of fighting to the death...I rather expect many of these ''fighters'' will be the Iraqi equivalent to our own ''morons in Miami'' who lived in a wharehouse until an FBI provocateur convinced them to be al Qaeda.
