NY Times Op -Ed Kristoff


Makes some good points but at some point we need to cut and run. We tried to impose democracy, they obviously don't want it, so now are we obligated to ram it down their throats as was the original plan?
I don't agree. Set a date certain and let it be known by all and let the Iraqi people take it from there. We have done enough "good" there for one lifetime! Sorry is what ?I feel for the American's killed and maimed there and all the other people killed and maimed there. Seems like we have done more killing than Saddam ever did.

We can't get elections right here but we can impose out system on all other countries? Especially the ones who control vast oil supplies.

It's all been a big failure and then the idiots that voted for Bush want more of it. I say we send all the people who voted for Bush over there to clean up the mess. Each Bush voter should be required to donate CASH to the families of those wounded or killed in this stupid war, regardless of the nationality of the hurt family.
Show some of that good ole Compassionate conservatism he bragged so much about. What a crock of crap Rove has sold the sheep and cattle of this nation!

It's gonna get much worse too! Get ready for suffering on a scale as massive as any this nation has ever seen. The dollar keeps plunging and those tax cuts just don't mean so much to the rich fat cats anymore. And for those of you mindless robots that are in the middle to lower class who bought into the trickle down theory of the tax cuts...there will be some trickling coming very soon. Just might be a bit yellow!
