I hear Mitch MConnell and Boehner saying, "Damn!" in response to the President's

[mfcorey1]

announcement of troop withdrawal. Let's hear the spin from the right begin. NOBEL PEACE PRIZE WINNER! The committee did not make a mistake.

[tallahasseedem]

1. I'm sure that's not what they were saying...

probably something like, F**K!!!

[mfcorey1]

2. ROFLMAO!!!!!!!

[Harmony Blue]

3. Yes it does foil their plans

somewhat.

:dem:

[Worship Money]

4. This is preaching to the choir here, but

ReThugs don't give a damn about "teh troopz!!".

They actually prefer they be in harm's way, as an excuse to use as a permanent wedge issue and right wing rallying slogan.

5. It will certainly help the enconomy

Enough money and lives have been wasted there. It's the least he can do.

6. The Department of Defense

can't use Iraq as a crutch to avoid cuts either.

[gratuitous]

7. Spin? "Cut and run!"

Jeez, it's like you've never seen these guys in action before.

As for me, color me skeptical about a troop withdrawal, but that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish.

9. Obama has a lot of political capital

so it will be hard for them to make such arguments. This is why they are defensively trying to deflect credit to Obama lately...they no longer are on the offensive, but a defensive position.

[K8-EEE]

8. LOL I read on FR he is "getting the infidels out of the Arab lands" so that

There can be a world wide "Caliphate." :eyes: And no they weren't kidding!

[Harmony Blue]

13. Really?

That is hilarious. :rofl:

[sharp_stick]

14. Well they do have to use the word of the day

The whackos learned the term caliphate from the prophet Glenn Beck himself and based on that must use it on a daily basis even without actually knowing what the hell it means. These idiots are willing to actually pay to watch/listen to the spiky haired crybaby so they'll do exactly what they're told.

10. Don't worry. Within 2 days the airwaves will be flooded with

images of turban-wearing marauders storming the beaches of Middle America because of "putting America's security at risk". Let's see how the WH responds.

[Erose999]

11. I thought the combat troops were already out of Iraq?

Besides, he could replace our combat personnel with Blackwater and other privitized forces and we'd still be waging war and paying for it on borrowed money.

I won't rest easy until we have complete withdrawal of all US personnel.

[postulater]

15. Yeah, didn't we watch Richard Engel on the MSNBC exclusive

as the last troops crossed the border into Kuwait?

So is this like killing the Al Qaida #2 again?

Mission Accomplished.

Really, this time.

Sure.

12. Obama's been busy with a mop and broom cleaning after Bush's war.
