"PLAN FOR VICTORY" my ass. There is no winner in this war and
never will be. Hasn't this idiot figured that out yet? Our military deserves a better commander in chief than this man and he knows Rums***** has failed the people but made B*** and all of his cronies a lot richer. They've gotten all they want from this war, as far as padding their pockets and B***s base's pockets, and they don't give a rat's a** about our children over there.

The Iraqi people do not want a Democracy, never have and never will. Bring our troops home so they quit being the target practice for terrorists that B*** and the rest of his Administration claim will attack us again, but they "don't know when, they don't know how, and they don't know where."

They constantly say that due to our military in Iraq, that is why there have been no attacks, but then they turn around and make statements like the one above.

So which is it? What about the attacks in the U.K., Spain? Weren't those terrorist attacks? No, they were not on American soil; however, it proved the terrorist still can attack when they intend to.

Does anybody really feel any sincerity in this man as he speaks? I don't so I wish he would get off the tube and the View could come on.

1. Not one iota of sincerity. He's a petulant little man who can't admit
he made a humongous mistake that has killed so many people. He claims he's doing this for us but I don't think so. He's obviously not listening to us and doesn't give a shit what we think.

2. Target practice is the right set of words.
Like goddamn ducks at a shooting gallery - they just drive trucks back and forth across the country waiting for an IED to take them out.

Like the war on poverty and the war on drugs, you can't fight a war against an idea.

Winning in Iraq is not a strategy, it's a goal. There is no strategy for Iraq, there is no strategy for winning the hearts and minds of the Iraqis, and no strategy for creating democracy - only strategies to take Iraq's oil and to prop up the profits of key companies linked to this administration.

3. I think a new phrase will have to be coined for him...
lame duck just doesn't even begin to describe the next two years for him.

After the election when the Democrats start hammering away at his incompetency and lies, his "approval" ratings will be wallowing down under the slime mold. He will leave his office in disgrace, as the worst President this country has ever seen.
