Not sure which was more predictable, but points to Nortobc for carrying over into cartoon-character level partisanship.

Hopefully, I'll have lost enough weight to join the Navy under my own terms by then.

How many troops do you think it'll take to stabilize Iraq? How many American and how many Iraqi? Why do you think this?
There will not be a draft.

I didn't say there would be...my opinion is that you can't police half the middle east without a draft, that doesn't mean there will be a draft. The American people would never stand for it.Bush is a f'ing lunatic.

I don't think we have anything to worry about until we invade Iran or Syria.

If we can't hold down Baghdad with what we have over there now, I really don't think 20K troops is going to make a difference...I'm not the only one that believes this. Colin Powell and several congressmen and military leaders believe it is futile. This is a civil war that we cannot stop...this civil war has been occuring far before America was even a country. The Official Democratic Response said "20K extra soldiers will not fix Iraq." This is the EXACT truth.It's time for every American with a conscience to call their Senators and Representative and voice their opinions.

What basis do you have for this -- other than an opinion based on words from Powell and the Dems. Are there reasons for these opinions?You forgot to mention that not only are there going to be more troops on the ground, the rules of engagement are supposed to change also.
So again the question -- do you have any basis for saying this strategy won't work? Because it appears the generals on the ground support more troops.

"I hate the President" is not an impeachable offense.
1. Pull the imbedded media
2. Take off the gloves
3. Kill everything that needs to be killed
4. Get the job done

Jeez- good thing that murderer Saddam was taken out of the equation...

No, but waging a war over an entire region that can't and wont be won is exactly the type of action that is impeachable.

See above.
I am utterly confused by this statement. Are you suggesting that everyone with a CONSCIENCE call their congresspeople, or are you suggesting that anyone who is CONSCIOUS should call their congresspeople?

Oh how about this scenario:While HW Bush was in charge of the CIA he heard a rumor that the Holy Grail was hidden somewhere in Iraq. He lusted after the Grail and wanted to have it. He tried unsuccessfully during the Iran-Iraq war to locate it and he followed the UN and did not go into Iraq after Desert Storm. While the years passed, he never forgot the Grail.It is what it is said:
During the 2000 election, HW Bush bribed the Flordia Supreme Court to put his son in office. They did and when the time was right, HW asked GWB to invade Iraq and try to find the Grail. The reason they are adding the 20k troops because they haven't found it yet and need to cover more ground.
Would this scenario change anyone's views on our current Military presence in the Middle East?

It was obvious conscience was the right word there.Sorry about that. Is it too much to ask that someone asking us to impeach the president not SOUND LIKE the President?I am utterly confused by this statement. Are you suggesting that everyone with a CONSCIENCE call their congresspeople, or are you suggesting that anyone who is CONSCIOUS should call their congresspeople?

Why wasn't General George Washington impeached or fired? Maybe he conducted just such a war within the bounds of law?

This worked great with Hitler. Looks like two administrations have done a bang-up job with N. Korea, and countless administrations have completley come to terms with Syria; thank the gods, or thank whatever we hold sacred, Jimmy Carter was able to get Egypt to jump "in-line". Or is Egypt really a peaceful nation, given their inability to control the brotherhood? Without believing in the principles of Liberty, just how does one negotiate with thug regimes like Syria, Iran, etc...who loathe liberty? Throw me a bone here, because if the answer was so simple, no matter how crass our elected officials are, it would already be implemented.

I think it would actually go a bit like this, considering it will be Thursday morning.LHucks: Hi, I'd like to speak to Senator So-and-so.Grace: I'm sorry sir, he's already left for the weekend. Can I take a message for him?Lhucks: Ummm, well when will he be back? I really need to talk to him.Grace: Well sir, he usually makes it back by Tuesday afternoon. Would you like to try back then?Senator's secretary(Grace): :usesbuzzer: Sir it's that Mr. LHucks again, he won't stop calling.Senator:

How did you get the script for the new Indiana Jones movie?Oh how about this scenario:While HW Bush was in charge of the CIA he heard a rumor that the Holy Grail was hidden somewhere in Iraq.

Make sure that you impeach all of the Senators and Congressman who voted for it also.

Don't we impeach people for lying, breaking the law, etc etc?? We don't impeach them because we disagree with their political views. Had to vote no here, as he's not breaking the law.On a side note: This has to be passed by the rest of Congress also. If it's approved by them, will you want to impeach all of them also? Just wondering.

Have no idea SJ. I am no politician. Can't stand politics really, but the threads in the FFA are always entertaining.

It really appears to me that Bush is going "all in" with this last strategy, if sending troops in does not work then he is in really dip do do. I think he knows this, if you just look at him he looks shot to heck.

This is one damn
We need to start treating this like a war. The media is the US Military's worst enemy.I have a question about this war that I don't understand.
When politician give us a reason why we should still be at war and continue to fight, they love to mention how we are fighting for the Iraqi people and that if we leave now that thousands and thousands of people will be left defenseless. But the overwhelming majority of people who live in Iraq practice Islam, a religon that these same politicians tell us is immoral and invalid and the leading cause for terroism that brought us there to begin with. Now you got some wacko conservative saying that we shouldn't even allow these people in the US anymore.
So we are a fighting a war to protect people that most of the politicians who support the war have a general distain or hatred for because of their beliefs. Doesn't make sense to me.
