Bush: "As long as I'm president the troops will stay in Iraq"

[happydreams]

He said this, or something close to it, awhile ago.

For those wondering how long the war will drag on my answer is as long as Bush is in office, or unless he flip-flops.

Another reason why removing this lunatic from office is imperative.

[Larkspur]

1. And Lieberman will help him do that

[Lowell]

2. As soon as he is out of office

he should be sent to Iraq to fulfill his Air National Guard obligation that he shunned during Vietnam.

[Hav]

3. .

Damn, he's really begging the Dems to impeach him.

[demnan]

4. He also said Rumsfeld would stay

the entire two years. Can you say Flip-Flop?

[happydreams]

6. Rummy was "resigned"

((()))

[Ron Green]

5. Didn't he say, "As long as I'm President Donald Rumsfeld will be

Secretary of Defense." ?? Or something like that?

Lying sack of shit.

[happydreams]

8. Yea, but if he doesn't flip-flop impeachment becomes imperative.

Either way the bastard loses.

[riderinthestorm]

7. The only way this debacle in Iraq will end is if Congress withdraws funds

which they won't. THAT particular action would tar them all as anti-troop which will be a disaster for their political futures.

Or Bush is removed from office through impeachment.

Anyone else who believes that this occupation can be drawn down or even ended otherwise is fooling themselves.

[happydreams]

9. Agreed. Dennis Kucinich's idea is a real good one.

[catmandu57]

10. Poor deluded fool

He just doesn't understand, there's a wave coming that's going to drown his entire misadministration. A tsunami that started rolling the seventh of November is building speed and strength, and there's not a damn thing he can do about it.

[partylessinOhio]

11. That leaves no choice if you want the "war" to end.

Bush must be removed from office. I don't care how that is achieved just get him out to save our troops from dying for his lies.

[Warren Stupidity]

12. OK. We should fix that problem then.

The voters were quite clear: get us out of Iraq now.

[andyhappy]

13. but I thought

the voters meant for us to send MORE troops to iraq....

I cannot believe that that is what the dems are talking about.

they finally won something and they are going to blow it...

[seafan]

14. Yep. He said this on August 21, 2006.

15. Hey, thanks alot for digging that up.

16. Stop WW III. Impeach Bush/Cheney!

[Jacobin]

17. Republicans should be the ones most anxious to impeach

He is utterly out of control, a loose cannon. Just look at what he said in Vietnam.

The guy is an embarrassment to their party and our country

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

18. Should read: "As long as I'm president we'll keep filling the body bags."

[ProfessorGAC]

19. Your Fired, George!

[Bucky]

28. "You're"

Real professors can spell.

[Individualist]

20. kick

[Morgana LaFey]

21. That's quite apparently shirking responsibility --

"Let someone else clean up my mess, just as someone else has ALWAYS cleaned up my messes. Why should I start now? Further, the failure will look worse for the next guy than for me."

[Vidar]

22. Good point, happydreams. Recommended.

[Swamp Rat]

23. Exactly!

[In Truth We Trust]

24. Impeach and Imprison!

[Imagevision]

25. Pelosi: let the investigations begin Asap!! The rest will take care of itself...

[indepat]

26. Well, maybe we will out of Iraq pronto, if the good Lord is willing and on our side

:D

[mom cat]

27. Kick!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

29. Betcha Poppy blew a gasket when he heard this.

:nuke:

[The Count]

30. Sounds like a challenge to me!

[puebloknot]

31. This is what people need to think about...

...when they talk about "working with" this administration.

I woke up today with the number 58,000 running through my head, the approximate number of our troops killed in Vietnam, if I recall correctly, and wondering what the final tally will be before we end our presence in Iraq.

I'm wondering what Nancy Pelosi and her people plan to do after they take care of the minimum wage, etc. That's all important, but we have a moral imperative to act quickly on Iraq. Dennis Kucinich has been talking his plan for withdrawl, in concert with the U.N., for a long time. He is right: Talking to the president is pointless. We need to take the decision away from him, however possible, including impeachment.

In my dreams (I actually had one like this), the Rez is resigning.

Hope springs...

[porphyrian]

32. Not that we should believe anything he says...

...but he must be stopped and removed from office as soon as possible.

[dapper]

33. He doesn't want to deal with it.

He's going to leave it for the Dems to fix. I don't think he wants to deal with it because he knows there's nothing he can do about it now.

JMHO

[earth mom]

34. Sounds like * is in Denial that dems won Congress....

and he's gonna continue to do what he damn well pleases as he's done for 6 years!

Congress needs to Impeach, simple as that!

[happydreams]

37. That's what I'm thinking. Bush is locked into securing Iraq even

though that will not happen. Securing Iraq is required to keep the Bush Dynasty in power.

[Bobbie Jo]

35. Perhaps he realizes he's a short-timer now....

But that would require a working grasp of reality.

[DemonFighterLives]

36. I never imagined impeachment as a possibility

but with dubby acting as an obstacle to anythng positive, impeachment may be needed. It can't happen soon enough though.

Oops, sorry, too late to recommend.
