Al Qaeda - the new democrat constituency.
The pullout started as soon as the President Poll numbers went below 50%. If you noticed the MSM was ever so happy that they could now attack at will and engage in 27/7 reprogramming of the American people. This is why the MSM hated life so much when Bush was at 70% approval they were just waiting for a crack in the armor. Then there was Abu Ghraib.
Abu Ghraib was also when Present Bush went full PC with the war fighting. The reason there is still a lot of bad guys still alive is because we did not kill them. Reports of finding combatants back on the battle field for the third time after being let go after capture can only go on so long.
The American people let us stay there for almost 4 years. They expected better results.
I saw a report yesterday that a 150,000 Iraqis have died since we invaded. So we are being blamed for all the civilians that the insurgents have killed. Would the American people think any different if that number was 350,000 and most of the bad guys were DEAD?
We will soon be leaving Iraq. We would have been leaving soon any how. The MSM made the war unpopular and the 2008 race start now. Is there any presidential candidate that could win with all the troops still in Iraq?
The Iraq government now knows that they will soon be on there own. They must fight for there country or die, this is a good motivation to work harder and I hope they do. If the generals were smart they would tell them we will be leaving and you best get ready.
The Iraq government has been saying for a long time that we have not allowed them to use more force and we should turn over most or all of Iraq to them and let them do what they want.
I keep hearing that they can't run the country yet which is bull. They control the oil and have billion in cash flow. If they can't form an army and buy a few used Russian boomers then they aren’t trying hard enough.
Kill the bad guys and all who protect them and you will win. Because of PC bull we can't do that maybe they can.
The real fight with the Dems will be if they will even allow us to have any bases at all or a protection force to help protect the Iraq government. I’m sure they will demand 100% withdrawal perhaps with a agreement that we will not return or provide any type of support for the Iraq government.
