- Democrats are anything but "weak" or "spineless". Stop trying to spread the blame aound. Bush did it, the Republicans helped him to do it, and the Democrats merely did what was politically expedient to do. No, I do NOT blame them for that, and unlike Bush or McBush, they want this war stopped.
For once, why not be adults, and take reponsibility for what you did? Oh, that''''s right; you''''ve never been an adult, so asking you or your kind to do the right thing is simply out of the question. Oh, and if you could "think", I just might be impressed.

Yo Sparky! I was against going into Iraq. I know, I know, you could care less about reality as long you have someone to point fingers at.
But I''ll give one thing. Your party masters sure did a great job of brainwashing you into being a good little "party member" (kinda smacks of that good old Soviet Union doesn''t it). "Never be critical of the party"
What''s the deal? Did Democrats plant a chip in your brain that controls your every thought?
And you wonder why Independents are the fastest growing political group. These loyal little drones in both parties are beyond redemption.
PS. Your attempt at insults would be classified as uber-lame. I''m surprised you didn''t dig a little deeper into the insult bag pull out "doo-doo head." Or is that next? - Reply to this comment

- As of Thursday, Nov. 20, 2008, at least 4,201 members of the U.S. military have died in the Iraq war since it began in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count.
Any loss of Us military is BAD!!!.. But when you look at the #''s.... America''s team has done VERY WELL. What other war in history lost 2.06 solders or troops a day.. Then you look at the DOD #''s for the time when Bill Clinton was in Office... We have lost more during Clinton''s Administration (peace time)then we have fighting a war in Iraq.. Hmmmm..
Then you have the losers out there saying 650,000 Iraqis were killed... I guess they forgot how many Saddam Hussein killed.. Or can you prove that Americans killed all of those 650,000? and that the cockroaches (enemy...) never killed any men, women or children.. Never beheaded anyone on video... bah ha ha.. and water boarding is so bad..? I''d take water boarding over a beheading any day..
So keep up the good Work those of you in Americas Military.. Job Well Done!!!!! - Reply to this comment

- Iraq, will never have a democracy.
We might have left Iraq two-three years ago, or we might be there for another 500 years, that country will never have democracy, or live in peace as one nation.
The sad part is, when we leave Iraq (soon I hope) they [Iraqis] will kill each other and our government will be blamed for it.
Mark my words. - Reply to this comment
- If a foraging army were occupying our country and we fight them, would be doing something wrong? or just because is this or that country we wouldn''t say or do anything about it?
Those people are defending their own country, is there anything wrong with that? or we are the only nation that can do whatever we want wherever we want? As far as WE KNOW, the Iraqis haven''t done any thing harm nor wrong to us... and we are not Mother Teresa, who wants to help their neighbors, because they are suffering and have a dictator president (or perhaps only those who happen to have oil and don''t want to do what our government want them to do)If so why we didn''t do any thing in South Africa? burning an effigy of president Bush wasn''t fair what about another one of *** Chaney? common this is not fair and why not Tony Blare.
I would make an effigy one of any president of any country, and burn if his army commit atrocities to (inside or out side) my country.
Don''t tell me that you love me and want to pay my private school, when your really is to screw my mother for life!!! you got the point? - Reply to this comment
- neoconRcrazy - I love how you pull up these numbers. Hussein killed millions of Iraqui''''s. Wher edo come up with Bush killing 650,000.. You''''re a moron

According to National Geographic''s Explorer series, the vast majority of Iraqi civilian casualties since the end of the ground campaign have come from foreign insurgents bombing markets & police stations, attacks on workers employed on public works projects, voters, military recruiting stations and people & family members of those that have taken positions as public officials. - Reply to this comment

I hope the NSA is reading this. You do know that speach such as yours is NOT protected by the constitution during the time of war. You are a moron, idiot and I am sure a democrap.

In as much as I and everyone else considers us to be engaged in a "war", congress has never declared it to be one, and has not declared a state of war since WW2. - Reply to this comment

- So you think that Democrats deserve a pardon for voting for the war because you feel they were too weak & spineless to object to an obvious Bush lead fiasco. Nice. And your feeble attempt at trying to categorize me as a Repub. is hilarious. Watching Repubs & Dems fight over which party is best for America is no different than watching the Bloods & the Crips fight over which gang is best for the neighborhood. You "party people" are just as much part of the problem as the party leaders that tell you what to think.

No matter how you look at it - these devout followers of either the Democrat or Republican Party can be classified as Fascist. - Reply to this comment
- We will. This illegal and unnecessary Bush war is coming to an end. Yes, he "bullied" the Democrats into going along with his oil chasing war, with threats from people like you of being deemed a party that is "soft on security" or un-American". I personally could care less what you think.

Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes once wrote that a "page of history is worth a volume of logic." The American tradition suggests that civil liberties take a backseat during times of war. "History shows us that in times of crisis, the suppression of dissension occurs," said Erwin Chemerinsky, a constitutional law professor at the University of Southern California, in a telephone interview.
Sanford Levinson, a law professor at the University of Texas, writes: "It is difficult to read our constitutional history %u2026 without believing that the Constitution is often reduced at best to a whisper during times of war."
The First Amendment is no exception. Attorney Michael Linfield, author of Freedom Under Fire: U.S. Civil Liberties in Times of War, writes: "Rather than being an exception, war-era violations of civil liberties in the United States are the accepted norm for our government." - Reply to this comment
- a shame they can''t accepted having been the scapegoat for 911 -
bush did give them "freedom" but
is cost the lives of 650''000 of their brethern.
about 3% of their population.
let''s see.... if it were saddam who''d "liberated" US with 320million, that''d make about 10 million dead Americans. - Reply to this comment
- Which ones? The senators and conressmen who were going to side with Bush anyway, or the few who believed his lies? In other words, what about the idiot Republicans who were going to go along with him even if he said the tooth fairy was repsonsible for 9/11, or the Democrats who were bullied into going along with his patheitc and needless war?

Why do you paint Democrats as spineless weenies? They are just as responsible for their votes as anybody else. The "bullied" BS is just that, BS. The scary part about your point is that the Democrats are now in charge across the board and you are telling me that they won''t take a stand against what they know is wrong. Sorry, I don''t think Democrats are the wimps that you think they are. - Reply to this comment

- maindoggiestyle, why is it you libs ignore the fact that most Dems said the same thing as the repubs when It came to Iraq? Why do you people feel the need to justify the savagery of the radicals while blaming America at the same time? Truly who''s side areyou people on and why do you chose the radicals ideology over freedom''s? Is it still politics? Isn''t the election over? What will peoplelike you do when Obama stays in iraq and expands the afghan mission? Start blaming Obama? Bet not!

AGREE!!! And anyone complicit in his evil plan!!
Posted by liberalme at 11:46 AM : Nov 21, 2008
Would that include all the Democrats & Repubs in Congress & Senators that voted to go to war in Iraq? That would wipe out about 80% of the current elected officials in Washington. Since both parties are complicit, that sure would free up the parking spaces around DC. - Reply to this comment

Iraqi troops donate money to US wildfire victims
The Associated Press
6:10 a.m. November 21, 2008
BAGHDAD %u2014 The U.S. military says a group of Iraqi soldiers has donated $500 to help California wildfire victims.
Iraqi Col. Abbas Fadhil at the Besmaya range complex south of Baghdad says his troops want to send a message to the American people with the donation that "we are a family."
A handful of wildfires raged through Southern California earlier this month. The blazes damaged or destroyed about 1,000 homes.
The military says it''s the fourth donation sent by the Iraqis to Americans hit by tragedy. Thursday''s statement says they also raised $1,500 for victims of hurricanes Gustav and Ike and donated $500 to the National Sept. 11 Memorial - Reply to this comment
