There is a shit load of gullible people here! |
|
Any timeline, either Iraq (16 months, changed to 18 months, changed to 50,000 troops left in Iraq for 'Training') or Afghanistan will be magically change, with no complaint from many members here with the famous:
"Taking into account the conditions on the ground!"
So why set any damn timeline when all that matters is the "conditions on the ground"?
This place is way more interested in Obama being right than with what really needs to happen!

1. The lack of a realistic tangible goal bothers me more than the flexible timeline. |
|
More specifically, if I heard a stated reasonable tangible goal, I'd be less concerned with the lack of a defined timeline.

11. What compelling interest does Obama have in the MIC? |
|
He received only .003% of his campaign contributions from them. He holds no stock in them. So what's his motivation?

3. You're right, but what you said will probably be construed as a broad brush attack |

absolutely disgusting to see it on a democratic board.
channelling spiro agnew is not something appealing.

9. 2 months is really so much of a change that you're that pissed off? |
|
Really?
I think the problem is less that we're "gullible" than it is that you're, for lack of a better word, extremely cynical.
