NOT ONLY HAS IT DETERIORATED, IT IS PRESENTLY DEAD AND DECOMPOSING, THANKS TO WAR-CRIMINAL CHIMPya, FRANKENCheney, Rove, Rice, DUMBsfailed, WolfFARTWhizz, neo-CON-men and Bushland Uber Allies!!!!!
April 5th, 2007 at 5:21 pmAh, but things are going “swimmingly” in Iraq and it’s choke-full of good news we never hear because of the MSM -right trolls?
April 5th, 2007 at 5:22 pmThey’re so fortunate to have Bush looking out for their interests.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:22 pmWho cares? 5 rugs for $5, people!!!
April 5th, 2007 at 5:26 pmI’m guessing getting invaded, shot at, and blown up will do that to you.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:28 pmWhat does one expect, after all ….
We did ‘Shock and Awe’ dropping 4000 bombs in a 48 hour period, on this already war torn innocent third world country
We have continued bombings, torture, raping killing, murders for 4 years
We ruined their electrical, water and sewer systems
April 5th, 2007 at 5:28 pmWell if anyone is an expert on people dying it is the UN.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:32 pmWhat makes this guy an “Iraq specialist” anyway? Was he part of Kofi’s Oil for Food scam?
April 5th, 2007 at 5:36 pmSaddam was hanged, charged with orchestrating the killings of thousands of Kurds.
What punishment will Bush/Cheney receive?
April 5th, 2007 at 5:41 pmWell, if anyone is an expert on being a troll it’s Patrick1
April 5th, 2007 at 5:44 pmMcCain thinks those 5 rugs will help. As the US stolen all of Iraq’s money something like 8 Billion dollars that might have helped them in their time of need. Bush/Cheney could care less about the Iraq people, their using them for the US money for Halliburton and pay offs. Notice the troops are used but don’t get the money and Bush will pick one little Iraq child to bring to the US for care and let the millions of others die. It’s all photo op for Bush/Cheney. Why would the White House give medical attention to Iraq when they don’t give it to our injured troops. It’s all about that blank check and Bush will use anything to get it. Even stealing it from the US Treasury if necessary.
April 5th, 2007 at 5:50 pmgo figure, the left wants Hussein back in power…I guess the left much rather have hussein mass murdering people…..
how truly sad….
tell me left wingers, your Hollywood gods want us in Darfur, they have even called for USA attacks in Darfur to stop the human rights violations….why would the left be for stopping human rights violation in Darfur, but could careless that we stop Hussein from human rights violations in Iraq. In fact they rather have him back in power……
i guess you guys much rather have someone like Clinton in power, right? or the Democrat Congress who is currently in power….let us see, do tell, what did the Democrats do in 93 and 94 to stop the mass murdering of Tutsi men, women and children in Rwanda….as we all know, Clinon and the United Nations pulled out all the UN troops from Rwanda the second that the Hutus started mass murdering the Tutsis.
So much for Democrats and the UN.
April 5th, 2007 at 6:01 pm800,000 human beings died in Rwanda because the UN and Clinton sat on their behind, called UN troops out of Rwanda….and you extreme wing babies are crying about this?
honestly guys, please….look within your own party and your god the UN before you point at Bush and the Republican party.
let us also not forget that the UN and Carter sat on their behind in the 1970s when over 1 million Cambodians were mass murdered by communists.
so once gain, please…..you hypocrites.
April 5th, 2007 at 6:04 pmyou gullible left wing extremists, so easily fooled by an organization that is willing to do NOTHING to stop mass murdering around the world.
I mean you babies cry about Darfur, what is the UN doing about Darfur besides crying about it? what did the UN do to stop the mass murdering of 800,000 Tutsis in Rwanda…I tell you what they did, they recall their blue helmets from Rwanda. The Dutch had a divisionn of Blue Helmets there and the General in charge of of this division was so outraged by the UN calling them back from Rwanda that he resigned in protest!!!
or how about the UN troops that are all over Africa rapping little girls, leaving the pregnant and when the AFrican people complain to the UN, the UN says that they are lying!!!
only and idiot would quote or believe anything that comes from the UN….yes anyone, from either party, Republican or Democrat, whether it is Bush, Hillary, Kerry, or whom ever.
the UN is a joke, a pathetic, stupid joke. Leave it to the idiots here that run thinkprogress.org to put up as a fact aanything that come sout this ridiculous, pathetic organization.

Asswipe you still haven’t answered the question, who is killing the people of Dharfur? You still don’t know. Just like you still don’t know where you served in the military.
YOU are the most evil and vile troll around. And you LIE more than even Jake. Why don’t you get the f**k out of here before you get your ass kicked.
You want to bring those military papers to Chicago bring them now.
April 5th, 2007 at 6:38 pmCaptain Kirk –
Keep rewriting history. You still don’t know who’s doing the killing in Dharfur do you?
Just tell me that much and I’ll leave you alone you stupid, worthless robot neocon puppet. It’s hard to believe anybody is stupid enough to believe Limbaugh, O’Reilly and Rove but you are by far the dumbest neocon around.
April 5th, 2007 at 6:41 pmCaptain Jerkoff – Military, Dharfur any answers. Yeah the UN is the root of all evil and Cheney and Bush are nice guys. What an idiot.
And you THINK the people of Iraq are in good shape. And you claim to have fought in a war.
Is there any soldiers here who will say that the people in a war torn country are in good shape. Because Jerkoff here thinks 4 years of war is easy on a country.
April 5th, 2007 at 6:44 pmCaptain Kirk,
You are the hypocrite. You don’t give a shit about the people in Darfur.
If you don’t like TP or us, you are welcome to leave anytime. You haven’t contributed any wisdom here.

I believe #1 icky troll has left.
April 5th, 2007 at 7:12 pmCaptain Kirk can’t say anything about Iraq because his chimp-in-chief is responsible for starving, sick children over there. So he changes the subject to Darfur — as if he cares about any of them.
April 5th, 2007 at 7:31 pmI believe #1 icky troll has left.
Comment by god
I know, god. I just wanted to leave a comment in case Captain Crunch comes back to check on his “brilliance.”
April 5th, 2007 at 7:52 pmHealthcare in Iraq basically does not exist anymore. If an Iraqi gets seriously injured then they die from lack of medical care.
