“Set to”...?

Seems to me they’re well down the path already.

But they’ve overplayed their hand this time.

Think how astoundingly wrong this is, when tyhe commander in the field JUST advised them against this and gave them a plan for continuing success, and some force reductions.

Screw ‘em. They don’t have the balls to cut off the funding or even seriously fight for that. Would Clinton or Hussein Obama even touch that with a ten foot pole?? Not on your life. Even under pressure from bowelmovement.org they probably wouldn’t.

I’m with you. Whenever someone expresses hatred for Pres. Bush, I tell them I have a slightly different take. When they ask, I tell them that the democrats are evil, traitorous b*st*rds. End of discussion.

How many years did we keep forces in Bosnia after Clinton’s Wag the Dog War? Someone needs to ask Hillary that.

If 4000 Americans had been killed, 30000 more had been wounded, and more than $500 Billion had been spent in Bosnia, people would be asking Hillary and Bill.

No one cares about Bosnia because no one’s getting killed and wounded there.

If we had 130000 troops in Iraq and it was as peaceful as Bosnia is, no one would care about Iraq.

To compare the two doesn’t really make sense.

Their correct label is ‘Copperhead’, but that is simply the one-word formulation of your more detailed definition.

Thanks!
