Democrat Betrays Party: 'Success in Iraq looks possible'

Dude...he spent TWO days in Iraq. I mean, he spent TWO days in the green zone. Try and find his intinerary. He posted pictures of himself with the troops on his website...he is never even shown wearing kevlar or a helmet.

Baird will end up working for Fox News with former Senator Rick Santorum b/c he will no longer be working as a Congressman.

By the way...I spent 11 months and 14 days in Iraq. That is 11 months and 12 days longer than Baird.

Adding 30,000 troops has done absolutely nothing for this bullnuts war.

Saying something positive about Iraq is strictly forbidden in the Democratic party. Only talk of failure and negativity is allowed.

anyone who thinks this war is going to work out is an idiot. you can tamp down on violence in one region, but then the bombings, etc. move to another region. violence isn't down in iraq; it's up. dems like hillary clinton are just being suckered again by one-sided reports.

Here's my conspiracy theory: Some Democrats wanted the heads of Rumsfeld, Rove and Gonzalez so but and Bush wants a victory in Iraq so bad that a deal was cut that if Bush has the aforementioned resign that certain Dems would support a continuation of forces in Iraq.

Damn I'm good. Do I have to figure out everything?

Sounds as if you are the one asleep.

More like, "Democrat betrays the US"....

Let's sit down and define 'success' and 'victory' and I'll give 20-to-1 odds against either of those things working in Iraq. Any/all takers.

hey 'believer' how are things over there in Iraq for ya?

lets not forget that august was one of the single worst yet for iraqi civilians.

Chicano I hope you take a round in the gut for America. I mean thats why you would go, right, to "protect our freedom"? And Im sure someone like "believer" will thank you. While the rest of the nation parties on.

This dumbass imperial wet dream hasnt a hope in hell of succeeding.

As a British general said the other day, the entire enterprise was "intellectually bankrupt" from the beginning.

Have fun sniffing out those IED's, now that we arent looking for WMDs.

What is 'victory' to you? Do you have any idea? I believe the war was won when American troops effectively rolled up the Iraqi military in the matter of a couple of weeks. Dems love to hold this "we've lost the war" card out, when we really aren't fighting a war, we're policing the region. We should leave when it's stabilized and the Iraqi police forces are able to hold their own. Is that so hard to understand?

Boozmaker, that is about the most twisted reasoning I've ever read on here. When our Armed Forces are engaged in a shooting and bombing match with well-armed enemies....that's a war. It's amazing to see people still trying to lay any blame at all at the feet of the Democrats on this one. Cheney and Rumsfeld and Wolfowitz all thought that routing Saddam's army was the only mission over there. They had no plan for what would transpire when what you call "the war" was over. Odd how they could be so totally oblivious to what was pretty obvious to the average person who was just half paying attention.

it's funny you phrase it that way.

i think the adventure in iraq has been a fairly unmitigated disaster. yet if i were asked whether the US "won" the war, i would say "yes" without much hesitation. i don't know how you can define the war in any way except US armed forces vs. Iraqi government armed forces. US won that in a couple of days or weeks and deposed the existing government.

what the US got wrong, in a sadly easily predictable way, was the post-war planning. it can't be post-war unless you think of the war as more or less over. so again, i'd say the US "won" the war.

unfortunately, winning that war has not done much good for us or anyone else.

So this guy is saying, we really f'ed up by going in there, no doubt about it, and now we're f'ed if we leave. And we're gonna f up a bunch of civilians.

Yep, sounds to me like he's a real warmonger now.

Chicano, has your commander in chief fought there? Your Sec of defence? Have they fought anywhere? And what do their opinions mean then? Shit too?

You bet we can say what we want, and most of us know much more about that situation than you brainwashed bunch of thugs.

There are some of you who actually believe they are doing some good, but thankfully they are coming to their senses too.

What hiliarious is the simple fact that you havent yet ONCE laid out what exactly you are doing over there besides "killing haji".

My guess is you're way down on the totem pole. Its doubtful you understand much besides yanking in a trigger. Which is exactly the kind of people Chimpy and his army wants for cannonfodder.

And its Allah, you moron.

OHH, have I upset the baby SEAL?? Does chicito need his mama?

Still holding your hand out for that big $15 bet?? Thats big money for a seal in San diego right? Loser.

Youre too much of a joke to even make it into Chimpys army. And they'll take anyone..almost.

Now unwedge your panties and get back to BK..the drivethru is filling up.

HAH.

Bush just wants to end his term with the war still going on so he doesn't have to be the bastard who goes down in history as the loser. Same thing LBJ and Nixon did. The delay cost America 10,000 more dead kids, including thousands of kids abandoned alive and eventually killed, labelled by the Pentagon as "MIA".

the emotion the left uses is weak, first of all it's giving the troops a bad name, second, the left could care less about people they don't know, they just use it to suit their opinion, which is quiet sad.
