On Friday, Rep. Brian Baird (D-WA), who recently returned from a trip to Iraq, wrote an op-ed in the Seattle Times arguing that withdrawal from Iraq “has the potential to turn the initial errors into an even greater problem just as success looks possible.” From the New York Times, an example of such “success“:
“That’s real progress,” Mr. Baird said, though he confessed he did not tell his wife about the region’s nickname, the triangle of death, and said the whole scene was a little surreal. “You have your flak jacket on, and your Kevlar helmet and you’re surrounded by guys with automatic weapons as you’re standing there, talking to the mayor. And you realize there’s a dusty old car next to you and you’re saying, ‘God, I hope that doesn’t blow up.’“
I responded to Baird’s Op-ed here
August 25th, 2007 at 9:16 pmWho pays these people?
August 25th, 2007 at 9:16 pmWow. What safety there, Bairds!
Just the other day I was looking at an old car in a parking lot and thought the same thing.
Only, I was in America and it was just an old VW….
but I totally get how the Iraqi people feel SO safe.
/sarcasm
August 25th, 2007 at 9:19 pmI hope he gets absolutley ROASTED at his upcoming Town Hall Meeting. ‘Initial errors into greater problems?” Rep. Baird, it is way beyond that point.
August 25th, 2007 at 9:20 pmBring the Troops home. NOW!
Dumbass Baird.

August 25th, 2007 at 9:42 pmHere’s what Toilet Paper’s posting of even war critic Brian Baird’s admission of success in Iraq means: the progressives and liberal anti-Americans can no longer deny that Bush’s surge is working. They can also no longer deny (without being laughed at) that pulling out now means more misery for Iraqis and total US loss. They can also no longer deny (without being intellectually dishonest) that more good than bad is actually occurring in Iraq, thanks to the US military. TP realizes that they will look even more like idiots if they continue to live in their unrealistic bubble and not acknowledge that more and more Demoncrats and libs are admitting that Iraq’s turning around. Brian Baird, Carl Levin, Michael O’Hanlon–and all these converts just returned from Iraq in the last couple of weeks. Yup, for the progressives–who get off on nothing but beheadings and bombings from Iraq–it’s been a bad few weeks as they’ve been getting totally disproved.

Comment by Frank J — August 25, 2007 @ 10:12 pm
Robert McNamara writes that ” there is no evidence that the South Vietnamese would ever have been able to accomplish on their own what they failed to achieve with massive American assistance. The level of congressional funding was irrelevant … The Nixon administration, like the Johnson administration before it, could not give the South Vietnamese the essential ingredient for success: genuine indigenous political legitimacy.”[102]
How’s that for an answer, Frank?
Popularized by the Eisenhower administration[27], some argued that if communism spread unchecked, **it would follow them home by first reaching Hawaii and follow to the West Coast of the United States. It was better, therefore, to fight communism in Asia, rather than on American soil. **
Sound familiar (we fight them over there…)???
Thus, the Domino Theory provided a powerful motive for the American creation of a client state in southern Vietnam.[28] The theory underpinned American policy in Vietnam for five presidencies.[29] Another important motive was the preservation of U.S. credibility and prestige.
And how about this little nugget of info???
Ho Chi Minh’s guerrillas were given funding and training by *** the United States Office of Strategic Services (the precursor of the Central Intelligence Agency). ***
Not again!!!!
These teams worked behind enemy lines in Indochina, giving support to indigenous resistance groups. The Viet Minh provided valuable intelligence on Japanese troop movements and rescued downed American pilots.
At home, a generation of Americans struggled to absorb the lessons of military intervention without clear motives or objectives.[108] As General Maxwell Taylor, one of the principal architects of the war noted “first, we didn’t know ourselves. We thought that we were going into another Korean war, but this was a different country.
** Secondly, we didn’t know our South Vietnamese allies … And we knew less about North Vietnam. Who was Ho Chi Minh? Nobody really knew. So, until we know the enemy and know our allies and know ourselves, we’d better keep out of this kind of dirty business. It’s very dangerous.”**
Ouch, ouch, and ouch!!! Got anymore real questions, Frank?
BTW, what’s a “moonbat”??
August 25th, 2007 at 10:32 pmHow many Democrats voted against the Pelosi/Murtha surrender bill? I would say more than one.

Then, of course, there’s the ridiculous term “Islamo-Fascism”. Fascism depends on Nationalism. The Mid-East doesn’t operate on Nationalism. No Nationalism=No Fascism.
Also, applying the term “surrender” to the Vietnam debacle, or any conceivable outcome in Iraq, is simply inaccurate. People who surrender are, generally, disarmed and/or held prisoner. Heck! Even if we wanted to surrender there’s isn’t anyone to receive it.

Maybe you should have been more polite.

Get bent, Makarena.

What’s wrong with you?
August 25th, 2007 at 11:06 pmGet bent, Makarena.
Comment by Zooey — August 25, 2007 @ 11:04 pm
That’s rude, Zooey. You should apologize!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:08 pmWho pays these people?

Comment by dbadass — August 25, 2007 @ 11:06 pm
They’ll ban his clueless *ss for good, one of these days. What a classless dolt. Clearly, he has no meaningful statements on politics to make.
He’s an f-in’ FRAUD!!!!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:10 pmBaird is a blue dog Dem, fooled into thinking all things surgent are just ducky.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:12 pmHe won’t be coming back to Congress after Nov 08, he should be polishing his resume.
And it’s quite insane. Completely bat-sh!t crazy!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:12 pmI hope you’re right ROS. He’s clueless and classless. Course he does have a lot of company in the other trolls.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:13 pmI see the ARCH!bishop of Urine is at it again.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:13 pmWhat a dolt.
“… And you realize there’s a dusty old car next to you and you’re saying, ‘God, I hope that doesn’t blow up.”"
Oh yeah, the surge is working!!!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:13 pmRoS,
He goes into these rants all the time and gets banned, then is back and gets even more juvenile. Maybe we can eventually get him back in his remedial psych program soon,
August 25th, 2007 at 11:14 pmI wonder why Baird did the 180 that he did. This seemed to come out of the blue. Completley surprised me.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:14 pmWhere did Frank go? Did he get tired of having his ass handed to him?
August 25th, 2007 at 11:15 pmAnd it’s quite insane. Completely bat-sh!t crazy!
Comment by pete — August 25, 2007 @ 11:12 pm
No f-in’ sh*t!!!
You’d think KKKarl would fire him for making all the rightie trolls look even nuttier than they are. They must be down to nickels and dimes in the till, if this is the best they can put on the Net…
This is gittin’ sadder by the day!!!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:15 pmThat’s rude, Zooey. You should apologize!
Comment by Makarios — August 25, 2007 @ 11:08 pm
I know.
No.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:15 pmWhat a classless dolt.
Comment by The Republic of Stupidity — August 25, 2007 @ 11:10 pm
I say we give them a chance to explain themself. I realize that there are some who are just attention getters and such but manners says the chance to explain themselves should be offered.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:16 pmMaybe we can eventually get him back in his remedial psych program soon,
Comment by upside00 — August 25, 2007 @ 11:14 pm
Or flat-out committed, before he hurts himself.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:16 pmI think thru this apocalyptic perspective on old cars it becomes immediately clear why Iraq is a success at the moment: its probably less probable that houses blow up. They just blow up thru cars crashing into them.
Or whatever the author wanted to tell us with this interesting perspective on old Iraqi cars.

August 25th, 2007 at 11:16 pmThe Blue Dog Dems seem to sit on the fence a lot and then decide which way to lean…..with the wind. Doesn’t seem to be a lot of moral conviction there in m y opinion.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:17 pmmanners says the chance to explain themselves should be offered.
Comment by dbadass — August 25, 2007 @ 11:16 pm
I give them that chance over and over again. Shuts them up every time, seeing as most of them have no coherent position to state! ;-D!!!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:17 pmComment by Zooey — August 25, 2007 @ 11:15 pm
I didn’t think you would. It takes a grown woman to apologize, but you are still a child, mentally, morally, and emotionally!
