Blair on ABC's This Week ... Saying Iran is undermining Iraq's new gov't.
This line of statements really bugs me. It's being said more and more yet there is NEVER any evidence proffered by the speaker of that statement. Just pure rhetoric and the M$M continues to lay down and take it and never question it.


<sigh>

1. The Bush-Blair philosophy...
"When life gives you lemons, use it as an excuse to invade another country".

2. How much longer before Bush and the Poodle
start to claim that it was Iran that did 9-11?

3. Has anyone in history f..ked up a potentially great legacy in a bigger way than Blair?
I hope that Carlyle Group job that's waiting for him pays big bucks.

4. Ya Ya Ya
It is Iran, Syria, and al Qaeda's fault.

The Anglo American invasion of the country had nothing to do with all of it's
problems.

What a load of crap.

Sorry Tony, people are not buying it and come January when Jay Rockefeller releases the
pre-war Iraqi intel bush will be gone in a heartbeat.

5. Sen. Gordon Smith (R-OR) now showing off his new Tool of the Year Award
In June, he said no war has been won by retreating.

But, after Wednesday's carnage, 10 US soldiers killed, he's had a change of heart (not a flip-flop, mind you). He signed on and voted for taking out a "top terrorist and a tyrant" and ridding him of WMDs (but didn't mention that those, well, never existed).

Freakin' pandering to the voters. Is he up for re-election in '08?

10. No war has been won by retreating
What a load of BS. A war is different than a battle and Wars are won at the bargaining table. There are signed Armistices after Wars. What is going on in Iraq is in no way a war. It is a free for all slaughter instigated by the USA. American troops have retreated in battle and even lost major battles but went on and win the war. This is not a War and there is no way American can "win" it. To win America needs to win over the people and it can never do that at the point of a gun. They hate us and that hatred is spreading very quickly...The Republicans have the philosophy that "They would rather be feared than loved" but that just doesn't get it in today's world...

8. THE FUCKING USA (Bush) UNDERMINED IRAQ'S GOV'T
Edited on Sun Dec-10-06 10:30 AM by rustydog
But that is ok, Saddam did not have WMD, had no meansor desire to attack America. had nothing to do with 9-11 (Osama, where are you boy?)50 percent of the population were under the age of 21 if I remember correctly, Saddam hated fundamentalist zealots and ran a secular Gov't. The only place in Iraq where terrorists trained was in the Kurdish region protected FROM saddam by AMERICA'S no fly zone where we bombed the shit out of the region since Daddy Bush attacked. But that is ok.

Shit Blair, clean up your own back yard.
