It may be an honest assessment, but it is wrong. Perhaps it is because some, like myself, thing that it's not that you like hearing an honest assesment so much as hearing an assessment that you agree with( and for that reason declare it to be honest).

Obama and the majority of Democrats are out and out fools. Regardless of what opinion you may have on why we are where we are, the fact of the matter is that we've pulled a scab off of Iraq and it is the height of irresponsibility to believe we should walk away.

All I know is that if this country puts someone named Ofuckingbama in the oval office, I'm moving to Australia.

Quite frankly, I don't think they care who is president. But if they did, they would probably prefer an incompetent like Bush who has done more to send recruits to the terrorists than they could have ever hoped for. And by the way, recognizing the reality of Bush's failed war is not cowardly. The cowardice is pretending that we are winning a lost war.

oh sure, so all the Democrats who voted to authorize the war were completely taken in by Bush. Horse shit. The cowards, starting with Kerry and running through Clinton, were all on board until the going got tough. Then, like the turncoat cowards they are, all of a sudden Bush became the evil bad guy. let me repeat, what a load of horse shit.

So you are saying that Bush lied about the WMD's and links to Al-Queda and the Democrats knew this when they voted for the war. I'll agree that Bush lied, but I don't think that everyone knew it, but I will concede that very few Dems were willing to stand up to Bush and maybe that can be called cowardice. But, of course, if the Dems knew, then so did the R's, so they are equally cowardly.

Perhaps.
Mike Gaskey wrote:

No, rather until it was clear that Bush was incapable of victory. He lost the war, so why would anyone stick to a losing policy? It's way past time to change the policy, the Dems recognize this as do many R's. -- modified at 15:32 Monday 12th February, 2007

no I'm not. I'm saying that congress, Democrats included, plus other nations including the UK / Australia / most of Europe - all believed Iraq had WMD. If you believe different, I suggest you contact your congress person and present a petition that presses for impeachment.

So, is the war over? You only lose (read up on Vietnam)if you quit too soon. Right no Bush has the enemy to fight and that enemy is aided and abetted by the press, who have drummed every misstep into American living rooms, the Democrats, who I'll repeat are natural cowards, plus everyother armchair quarterback.

Well, you just answered your own question with "yes".

No, but any opportunity to win it has been squandered by Bush. I've read numerous pieces by people who believe that an increase in troops could make a difference, but the number of troops required was always between 30,000 and 100,000 for at least 18 months. Bush's surge is 21,000 for less than a year. There may be some theoretical possiblity of victory, but not with Bush.

Sorry to rain on your parade - we weren't "stabbed in the back" in Vietnam. And we're not being "stabbed in the back" now.

Whatever:rolleyes: Perhaps you actually believe this. Perhaps you believe that it is only true for Democrats and not Republicans. If so, too bad for you. And if you believe it is true of all politicians, why do you even bother with politics? It would be completely meaningless.

I wouldn't vote for him if his name was Bob Smith. But, no, Barak Hussien Obama is just too much for my xenophobic blood even if he were the political reincarnation of Ronald Reagan..

you bet, I'm with you - no way we can win a war with Bush at the helm.

that is delusional. modified to add: Kerry's lies and Waler Cronkite's constant drum beating turned the American public and forced us to leave Vietnam, causing the deaths of millions.
