feel welcome and comfortable?

Seriously, turn off FAUX News and enter the real world for a change.

This is getting old

Indeed it is. Try getting a new anti-American argument for once, Lib.

I expect a certain amount of trouble on election day and afterward while the Iraqi's are awaiting for the results. This is to be expected.

I also expect the Administration to have a plan to eventually pull our forces out over time. We can't stay there forever. I don't believe this ever was the plan.

I give up with that moron.

He can't even bring himself to admit that perhaps there may have been better choices for public polling places than FUCKING SCHOOLS with everthing going on there.

unfuckingreal


I want to move to Brian's world. Where everything's rosey. No mistakes are made. No errors in planning or judgement occur

You can be my neighbor

And there it is, the standard fall back position of any SHEEP.

When all else fails, call them anti-american

With no due respect, Fuck you B. Question MY patriotism because I dare question how this war is being handled????

It is a patriot who DOES hold their governemnt ACCOUNTABLE for it's actions.

prick.

And it's mistakes

I've never said mistakes weren't made. The first one Bush made was having Rumsfeld as his SecDef. I won't go into the countless others...some of you all are only to happy to do that. I can live with that. I certainly don't agree with everything this Administration has done in the domestic and foreign policy arenas.

However, you Libs just can't seem to realize that pulling these elections off is crucial to getting our people home. FUCK! Why can't you fucking realize that? LoungeMachine, you're such a stupid-assed condescending prick with absolutely no knowledge to back up your arrogance.

Pop your head out of your ass for one damn minute and just realize that everything CNN tells you may not be true.

What the hell would you have us do, delay the elections indefinitely? Have them in a fucking tent? That's downright laughable.

Truth hurts, huh?

Yeah, you're the damn SHEEP. Using the same tired arguments of all the liberals. Boring. :yawn:

I'll go goose-step...if you give me lessons. I know you know how you NAZI fucker.

Anyhow, back to the matter at hand....

I don't mind anyone holding the government accountable. Mistakes have been made in this war like all wars. It's inevitable. I just don't understand why you Libs don't realize that the shortest route to getting our people home is through this Iraqi Election process?

It's simply amazing. Then you go on to question the decsion about potentially having polling places in schools instead of TENTS. Don't you think Schools would be much easier to defend against insurgent attacks?

Guess not.

Your right there... but there is still probably more truth on CNN than on FOX. (CBC just did an expose on Fox... very interesing).

You guys need to watch CBC -although even I'll admit, they do lean to the left, and aren't very pro-Bush these days. :D

[Big Train]

Fucking enough with the CBC..who gives a fuck?

Canada has all sorts of questions remaining to be answered about it's media, so CBC is just as suspect as any of the rest of them.

I agree with Brian here. The only way to pull out is to get them on the right path with elections, forming a government etc.. even libs MUST acknowledge this. Nobody comes home until this happens. The details can be debated endlessly, but until these processes are complete, nothing on the liberal agenda can come through.

I'm no expert [just ask ELVIS and BigBLINDBrian], but the more I read about this upcoming Iraqi "election" that the Bush Administration is touting, the more I question it's true purpose.

1 - There are no NAMES of candidates on the Ballots. Only part affiliation symbols

WHAT KIND OF DEMOCRACY WORKS THIS WAY?

2- The 4 provinces filled with the Sunnis arent even going to be able to vote relatively safely, and the Administration IS FINE WITH THIS

IMAGINE IF OHIO, TEXAS, NEVADA, AND NEBRASKA COULDNT VOTE

3- There will be no international election officials monitoring the election

HOW DOES THE WORLD EXPECT TO RECOGNIZE AN ELECTION WITHOUT MONITORS????

4- Does ANYBODY really expect Allawi NOT to win?????

Isnt this just another US puppet government being imposed??

Feel free to tell me how wrong I am.

I WAS WRONG

I THOUGHT ALLAWI'S GROUP WAS A LOCK



Clergy-backed Shiite coalition won most votes in Iraqi election

BY LIZ SLY

Chicago Tribune


BAGHDAD, Iraq - (KRT) - Iraq's long-downtrodden Shiites won the largest share of the vote in Iraq's landmark election, according to a final count released Sunday, though they failed to score the outright majority they had been expecting.


The outcome was a stinging blow for Ayad Allawi, the secular Shiite U.S.-backed interim prime minister, whose slate won only 13.7 percent of the vote despite the huge TV exposure afforded by his job and the biggest campaign spending by far of any candidate.

Allawi is disappointed and blames his poor showing on the endorsement of the Shiite coalition by Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, Iraq's top Shiite religious authority, said Raja Khuzai, an Allawi aide.

We know...

I posted the preliminary vote count...

But Allawi getting only 14% sounds crazy...

I know you did.

I just felt the need to cop to it.....

Confession is good for the Soul, I'm told:D

[ELVIS]

Yes, It is...

Specific confession...

Our pastor said today: Confess your sins specifically, God already knows your sins, but he want's to know that you know...

Fine.

I was mean spirited to Brie today.



you're right

I do feel better:D

[ELVIS]

Very nice...:D

[Warham]

Yeah, that'll make Iraqi's feel real safe. Voting in a fucking tent, instead of a real building with brick and mortar walls. Makes it easier for the insurgents to shoot through, eh?
