Iraq War Vets running for Congress....as DEMOCRATS

[DrMaddVibe]

The article you posted up doesn't reflect that the vets had a Earth shattering revelation or a change of heart to run from the Republican party. For all I know those guys could be from blue-blooded families with pedigrees that sat behind typewriters. Your article didn't reflect that they were exposed to the true horrors of war but yet you want to believe they did.

Good luck with that angle...stick with it!

Yes, being Republican, is like, you know, sooo 5 minutes ago,I mean, my gawd.

Would this even be News if not for the "Murtha Pop" on the congressional floor? I think not.

I think this particular angle is perfect for your party Lounge. It could be your counter to the Christian extermists.

Think about it. Working class people, who's kids are serving, invokes the same kinds of emotions the Republicans have used for years and allows the Dems to get access to those people, while not losing the peace activist crowd either. It's a GREAT angle...

"Angles" aside...

The fact more men and women aren't coming back and getting on the Republican pro-Iraq war soapbox is telling to me.

The right just refuses to believe that this war was a mistake, that certain objectives COULD have been met WITHOUT invasion/occupation.

Belittle it all you want, Vibe. 2006 will tell.

And Paul Hackett was before Murtha, so there goes another VibeTheory out the window. This movement is not "just born", hell even the article was written BEFORE you guys decided to shit on Murtha.

BT makes some good points, and I'm encouraged by the "angles" starting to emerge

And if you don't get the results you desire what will it "tell"?

Will you become another lunatic like ford?

I have NEVER shit on Murtha and I'd like to think "you guys" excludes me. I'm still upset about that whole incident.

That is what I'm saying. They have an opportunity, yes, but I don't see the ideas or will coming from the Dems that would actually deliver that potential. I just see these usual weak angles.

As opposed to the "Republican" angles, the overly ideological shaped through largely by a (false-prophet/God complex) religious prism...

In fact the Democrats can be far more pragmatic on Iraq. On thing they could do is allow the Military in Iraq to do what they wanted to do all along, and what the formerly NEO CON dominated STATE Dept. (with Viceroy Paul BREMER in the lead, and Douglas FEITH, The Pentagon's own PAUL BROWN) would not allow. They could allow the military to communicate and reach out to the SUNNI insurgents in a real, meaningful way, opening the doors for a political accommodation...

Well, unlike the life-long civilian men who largely planned it, they in fact did see at least something of the War and the combat that took place.

In IRAQ, I'm not really sure but, I believe that even pencil-pushers, cooks, and "chair'born Rangers" get into the act on patrols and guard duty, and are exposed to roadside bombings.

Whew...I'm really glad you posted up some facts.

Pot/tea kettle.

[DrMaddVibe]

How?

[LoungeMachine]

Funny how AssVibe laughs at this thread's premise, and feels it's such a sham, yet continues to post, and post, and post in it....

It's just like ringing a bell with you Cons.

Hey, laugh it up. 2006 will surely go your way.

I mean the momentum is surely on your side. You guys have done such a bang up job controlling both houses, the west wing, and the war...

BTW, been meaning to ask....how'd your boy's FIX of the Social Security "crisis" work out.???

Well, there's always immigration and abortion to look forwarsd to, Ass.

LMMFAO

[DrMaddVibe]

The bell ringing bit...enough already.

I started that one.

You don't know how to use it, so just put it down and nobody gets hurt.

Your thread IS a sham. You read into it what you want to, not what's based on any real factual PROOF!
