Troop Reduction Is Possible, Bush Says

[Gandalf_The_Grey]

Bring back the draft!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you dont agree your fucking dumb.If we do that we will truly be affected by the war and that is one way to end this senseless blood shed. The only way were going to write, phone, and email our local representatives is if we have an actual, evident connection to the war. I don't think it would be passed bc its political suicide to even bring the situation up but w the limited coverage of the reel stuff thats going on their how can we even begin to understand the atrocities going on in that waring nation.. Big up yourself for the thread

Uh oh, I don't agree with reinstating the draft, I must be fucking dumb!

Or you could, I dunno, not make a falacious argument based on poisoning-the-well. If you wanna have a different opinion argue it logically, don't outright insult your fellow members for have different views, that's just childish/assholish.

Gandalf! It is funny, but I actually agree with you. I'm sorry my post was written in the heat of passion because I didn't get those points across. My main goal though was to hear why people still support the war because I am actually curious in all political views.

Sorry intoxication is slowly creeping up on me so I'll have to cut this post short before I forget how to spell my name.

How come every republican's comeback is something negative about the democrats? Most people who know politics know they are both equally as bad. All they do is divide the country.

â??Anbar Province is lost,â?� he quoted the analyst as saying then. Mr. Hadley was apparently referring to Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia
Just making a point that this WAS the calling cry of the DNC a year ago.
I do agree with ya that a politician is a politician no matter what side of the fence.....it would be nice IF the left took a hard line stance on something though.

Psycho if you buy that bullshit the Bush administration feeds you then you're being foolish. The current people in office are criminals and should be removed asap. If the Iraq war was just and good then it would have more support. Even Bush's republican cronies are turning on him now. Why is it that so-called repubs can't grasp the concept that these are real lives and not pawns on a chess board? We don't need to be in the middle east. If people really want to attack us taking down random people in the streets of baghdad isn't going to help. If we were attacked by an actual country it would be a different story. It's even proven now that Iraq had no WMD's which was the reason we went in anyhow.

It's sad that Bush has ruined so many lives and continues to. He sends people's children to war to die and has killed over 600,000 Iraqi people since he has sent our army to invade. It shouldn't have been this easy to do all of it. People just let it slide and those who oppose are ignored.

Whether or not you agree with the invasion or not, both the Republican and Democratic parties acknowledge that just leaving isn't an option.

This war isn't meant to be won, it's meant to be ongoing. I don't know why these people need more money and power.

Please explain this further??

Psycho4bud I'd like you to explain why you think the Iraq war is beneficial to anybody but those who make money off of it in any way. Bush is clearly not doing what the people of the United States want so how are we a democracy anymore? It seems much more like a dictatorship because although there are democratic processes, they don't seem to matter much anymore.

We have several concerns for that area........not ONLY the resources but also the concerns with Iran, Al-Quada, not to mention our own credibility to the other Arab Nations that may one day need our assistance OR have a faction that wants to take an offensive stance against us.

I believe with the changes made in such areas such as Mosol, Najaf, Fallujah and of course the Anabar Povince.....progress is being made.

Have a good one!:s4:

What, You have some secret insight? I believe it has been and will continue to be a clusterfuck and we need to cut and run. With 50,000 troops so stressed out they are on prozac, Info from my friends nephew that was killed after they sent him back and stuffed him full of prozac, He said that he heard from a fellow soldier in the medical corps that as many as 50,000 troops were on prozac to relieve the stress of war, that and medical speed to keep them alert on patrols. There will be such a mass of mentally fucked up kids coming back from this clusterfuck, I hope they all move to Crawford texas and hang out around the Bush compound with deer rifles.

Bush does have a moral obligation to listen to the will of his people on this matter, but not a legal one.

How do you figure he does not have a legal one. The people of this country have the final say to what happens. We are supposed to be in control of our government not the other way around. Come on people know where we come from, and what are founding fathers established.

I love the comparrisons to our "founding fathers". They were only 53 days away from the closest enemy by boat. The enemy we face today is much, much closer than people want to realize.

I wonder how G.W. (George Washington) and Congress would have reacted if the Brits had I.C.B.M.s with nuclear tips back in the day?

Have a good one!:s4:
