If Drudge is right that the Pentagon is planning to dump more abuse photos from Abu Ghraib, there is no use --we should just surrender.
If I had a loved one in harm's way, I'd tell them to desert. We can't win a war this way. Our media and governmanetal elites simply won't let us win this war.
Bush is too weak and the Republicans in Congress are intimidated by the big Beltway Media. The grunt and the Average patriotic American doesn't have anybody fighting for them.
There is no mass movement to defend the honor of the American military and there is no internal movement within the Pentagon or this Administration to say "Enough, we ain't giving the Rats in the media anymore sh*t to weaken us and boost the our enemies. We got a post-modern, post-nam Military brass-- not a pair of balls on any of them. There simply is no push back. The Schumers, the Durbins, the Moores and the MSM are more committed than the Right is.
I understand why recruitment is down-- the damn Generals don't defend the grunts. They keep giving more and more ammo to the Islamisofascists and the Enemies within. Tell me where I'm wrong.
This is nothing new; always has been "wobbly."
Since the start of the Iraq occupation, the news has jumped from one "crisis" to another to show how we are "failing". Look at the following list of "crises" and consider how each was covered, and how it turned out. These are just what I can remember:
-Looting of the Bagdad Museum
-Saddam and his sons at large
-Little or no power in cities
-Lack of potable water
-No oil production because infrastructure was destroyed
-Terrorists targeting oil pipelines
And or course, we can't forget the whole pessimism fest during the run up to elections in Iraq. The vote turnout was to be horribly low, and the whole thing was to be marred by violence...according to our pals, the journalists.
The ugly truth about occupations is that they are ugly. The Union Army's occupation of the former Confederacy was no picnic after the Civil War. The occupation of Germany was no picnic after WWII.
If all of this makes me a "denier" as you referred to Mike in Iraq, then so be it. I've already been to Iraq, and I am set to go there again in the near future. I deeply believe in our efforts in Iraq. Fixing Iraq is not a fool's errand, and the US will succeed despite the whining media.
This freeper has been ready to surrender for MONTHS.
Don't fret the small stuff that you have no control over......
Ummmm .. you do realize they were ORDERED by the Courts to release them .. don't ya?
Do yourself a favor and loosen up the tin foil .. it's wrapped to tight
Everywhere?
Nothing but garbage here......
If you're going to be a pessimist, at least be accurate.
The RATS tried to make it close, but it was a substantial victory all the way in a state that Soros was pouring money into.
Get a grip.
And Soros is still putting money into it-- without Ohio, Hillary will beat any Republican. Like I said, it shouldn't have been left up to OH. It should have been a slaughter.
Naaa ... all the liberals I know say they won't vote for her
Great. I don't want her and I don't want McCain. I'd view it as the beginning of an inevitable and unrecoverable decline if either of them became POTUS.
So why comply? If a liberal, America-hating judge ordered the nuclear codes to be released, would Bush do it?
oh please .. you are going a tad over board
As far as these pictures are concern
The people responsible for them have ALREADY been to court and CONVICTED of what they did
I have just read this entire thread and remembered a few things.
And the most important two are this:
This Freeper is a drama queen.
And it's always about HER.
I bet you drove Lucianne off. She's right... Freepers yell at each other.
I notice you didn't bother to refute what I said.
And seeing as how you're friends with Trixie, I can understand why you're so miserable here.
BS! If you call 168,000 vote margin "barely". That's how much Bush won in Ohio before the feckless Dummies went in there to make sure it was closer.
Dude, Hanoi Kerry, a notorious traitor, should have lost freaking 40 states. even Ann Coulter said that the election was almost bungled and that Kerry's vote is nothing to cheer about.
So you did run off trixie...well, she certainly landed on her feet. I reckon she's done more for the cause then you ever will...
I never even SPOKE to her while she was here; not once.
Some things never change
