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!

I won’t stand for the racist remarks that people here make.

Comment by Makarios — August 25, 2007 @ 11:18 pm
Your art seems a bit simplistic but the way you vary the use of the horizontal as well as vertical is so unique. I sort of liked your Cheney Crosses period a bit more.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:23 pmI just e-mailed TP about Makarios. He has got to go. I want him banned from here.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:23 pmGuess mr. p has lost what little grasp on reality he had. Too bad his behavior is so pathetic. Might be cute in a 7 year old.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:24 pmAnnoying? Definitely. But it reminds us of what needs to be fixed.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:25 pmThere REALLY needs to be some moderators on this site. Perhaps some regulars can volunteer. With some well thought out guidelines, this could be very effective.
I’m totally against censorship, but there is a world of difference between debating opposing views, and being called a “moonbat” or terrorist sympathizer.
Seriously folks.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:27 pmComment by Pete
Just shows how starved for attention he is. Guess his mom didn’t breast feed him long enough and the chicks in Virginia have enough class to give his sorry ass a wide berth.
Hope he doesn’t go Postal on his campus. That would be REALLY sick!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:28 pmI doubt that it poses any real danger. Heck, someone would have to take a wall down and use a forklift to get it out of the basement.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:30 pmOr maybe he is in the school library computer lab, wanking on 6 machines at once!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:32 pmLater! Had a long tough bike ride and need some sleep. Hang in there, but he may go like this til early in the morning, when the Mountain Dew and meth high wears off.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:34 pmSeriously folks.
Comment by JPV — August 25, 2007 @ 11:27 pm
Careful what you wish for. That also means no excessive nastiness towards them. Maybe there is a middle ground. Clearly some behaviors here tonight show that your concerns are valid but how can you get people to employ the manners they where taught without risking stiffling the voices of those with legitimate differences of opinion?
August 25th, 2007 at 11:34 pmAMERICA WINS!!!
Comment by Makarios
Wins what?
We have already lost.. lost our dignity, respect… we are now one of the most hated terrorist nations in the eyes of others… what kind of a coward does the US look like in front of the world? I can not get past the Shock and Awe, dropping 4000 bombs in two days over Baghdad a population half of which were children under the age of 16… while the MSM entertained the masses with this and while the Bush thugs gleefully, with much enthusiasm explained this to us…The worse part is THEY KNEW IT WAS OVER LIES…. cold blod murder….
August 25th, 2007 at 11:36 pmSo, Markarios you tell all of us what we are winning.
Pete = racist!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:40 pmI just e-mailed TP about Makarios. He has got to go. I want him banned from here.

Yeah, they can only ban names. Sorry!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:42 pmI’ll still be here to straighten out you moonbat, terrorist coddlers.
Pete = racist!

Makarios = Fraud… and idiot!!!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:42 pmI’ll still be here to straighten out you moonbat, terrorist coddlers.
Comment by Makarios — August 25, 2007 @ 11:42 pm
And we’ll just keep tellin’ ya you’re a fraud and laugh at ya! :-D!!!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:44 pmYeah, they can only ban names. Sorry!
I’ll still be here to straighten out you moonbat, terrorist coddlers.

Really, what is wrong with you?
August 25th, 2007 at 11:44 pm“… but how can you get people to employ the manners they where taught without risking stiffling the voices of those with legitimate differences of opinion?”
Comment by dbadass — August 25, 2007 @ 11:34 pm
It’s actually pretty easy. Sadly I rarely see an honest rightie here who just wants to debate. It’s almost always whackjobs like the Mackerel.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:45 pmReally, what is wrong with you?

August 25th, 2007 at 11:46 pmOh, I’m sorry. If you’re okay with pete calling colored folks “rabid pets,” then you are a racist too!!!!!!!!

Psychotic snap. He’s gone. Totally incoherent.
hr’s only listening to “the voices’ now. Very, very painful to watch.
August 25th, 2007 at 11:56 pmTP,
Why do my fields revert to “null” and my posts not appear? Are you trying to make me stay away? Congratulations, Mission Accomplished!
August 25th, 2007 at 11:57 pmIt must be from the rabies.

Comment by Wayne A. Schneider — August 25, 2007 @ 11:57 pm
I think they are too busy letting the idiots do their idiot stuff to be bothered with anyone with something to say. Have you tried wasting everyones time with the vertical?
August 26th, 2007 at 12:00 amIt must be from the rabies.

You’re just parroting what Juan said about you or CT once. It’s all you know. You parrot your philosophers, without any understanding of what they’re trying to teach you. You parrot Ralph, for who knows what reason. And you parrot TP commenters.
I accept the consequences of failing to apologize to you.
You owe everyone on this blog an apology for your behavior since you showed up here, and especially for your behavior this evening.

On topic,
The Bush administration has managed to set the bar so low, that the smallest dip in the daily carnage Iraq has become is hailed as an astounding success.
Let’s not forget: No WMDs, no ties to AlQaeda, no nuclear program, and not even democracy in Iraq anymore now.
With every single prediction turned to naught, I see very little point in giving the Bush cheerleaders any credibility regarding Iraq, or anything else for that matter.

Absolutely true. I am scratching my head as to what could be going on in his head.
Baird even starts his op-ed piece with “The invasion of Iraq may be one of the worst foreign-policy mistakes in the history of our nation.”
Why would anyone under any circumstance stick to what is obviously an utterly failed policy is beyond me. If the current course has failed to produce any observable improvement in Iraq in four years, it is anyone’s guess how a relatively small “surge” can accomplish it.
Maybe Baird simply wants to believe, desperately, that this “surge” will succeed -however he chooses to define “success”. He is in for a big disappointment, methinks.

August 26th, 2007 at 2:47 amHow about this for a novel approach to the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan?
1 — Since most people in this country haven’t sacrificed anything yet(in fact, the only change for the extremely wealthy has been to figure out what to do with the windfall from their outsized tax cuts), the least Congress and Bush could do is restore December, 2000 tax rates.
2 — Rather than hiding the financial costs of the war by keeping it off-budget and borrowing money the finance it, the Administration should show that they aren’t complete cowards and adopt a “pay-as-you-go plan.” If restoring tax rates to pre-January, 2001 levels isn’t enough to cover the costs of the war, then a bill (with the purpose clearly marked on it) can be mailed to all tax payers for their proportional share of the costs so we don’t keep adding to our national debt. For all the crying about the “death tax”, where is the concern about the “birth tax”, since every child who is born in this country inherits a debt of nearly $30,000 before they even take their first breath?
3 — In addition, unless the United States is in Iraq purely for its own interests (which should be clearly articulated if that’s the case), then why not arrange for another election in Iraq, financed by the United States, and run by a neutral international agency? Let’s allow the Iraqi people an “up or down vote.” If the majority vote for the U.S. to stay, then maintain the status quo. However, if they vote for the U. S. to leave, then this country will honor their wishes as expeditiously as possible.
What say you, trolls?

August 26th, 2007 at 6:38 amRep. Baird’s ‘real progress’ in Iraq. AND THAT IS
At the beginning of July, 23 out of the 37 members of the Iraqi cabinet voted to approve a draft oil law, sending it to parliament for approval.The minister of planning announced that he would resign if the bill passes, while a member of the parliament’s energy sub-committee didn’t wait and resigned immediately. Many other MPs expressed misgivings but, dependent on massive US military support, a government that barely governs the few square miles of the Baghdad ‘green zone’ plans to tie up Iraq’s most valuable national resources in contracts that run for decades.
August 26th, 2007 at 6:48 amAmerica divided over Iraq surge
Clinton and Obama say that new tactics are showing signs of working
http://observer.guardian.co.uk/world/story/0,,2156359,00.html
August 26th, 2007 at 7:04 amThe “surge” is an inexact term. There are at least two aspects of it.
August 26th, 2007 at 8:31 am1. An increase in the number of troops.
2. A change in the Tactics and Strategy employed by the troops.
The number of troops is Unsustainable. In April, the number of troops will be reduced because recruiting and training goals have not been met. Not enough people are volunteering for this all volunteer military.
Almost everyone agrees that the change in Tactics makes sense. Gen. Petraeus has seen what we were doing wrong ( for FOUR YEARS) and has taken steps to fix it. In my opinion ,i f Petreaus and Defense Sec. Gates had been in charge of war planning from the beginning, we would not be in as big a mess as we are now.
The question now is…is it too little too late. A strategy for democracy ,with the mistreated Shiites in the Majority, seems flawed from the start.
The mission in Iraq keeps changing. Perhaps our only chance of “victory” is to change the mission to fit the situation, instead of changing the situation to fit the mission.
New Bush rules on detainees stir concern.
Top military lawyers have told senators that President Bush’s new rules for CIA interrogations of suspected terrorists could allow abuses that violate the Geneva Conventions, according to Senate and military officials.

Yes, with a good fat recession. Please soon, otherwise there will be even more war.

It’s apparently not enough for liberal buffoons to wish for U.S. defeat in Iraq, they also want our economy to fail here at home, and wish for death upon fellow U.S. citizens.
Liberals will claim they are patriotic, and hide behind the U.S. Constitution every chance they get, but their words bely their real feeling for their own country: Hatred.
In reality, “progressives” like Troll Hater are true traitors to the United States, and should be treated as such.
See Federal laws concerning the handling of traitors for an explanation.

Suspected terrorists need not be afforded Geneva Convention rights. They are not uniformed members of the military from recognized nations.
Since they are not covered under the Geneva Convention, there can be no “abuses”.
Better yet, lets just turn them over to friendly nations in the area for interrogation. I’m sure their fellow moslems will treat them better than us, right?
August 26th, 2007 at 9:48 amCongressman, Rep. Brian Baird, is holding a Town Hall meeting on Monday. Now is the opportunity to express your concern about his recent comments on Iraq.
He told The Associated Press last week that we should stay in Iraq for “as long as it takes.”1 Just yesterday he wrote an Op-Ed in the Seattle Times defending the White House’s failed strategy in Iraq.2
Last March, Rep. Baird voted with the Democrats to force Bush to bring our troops home. Now he says he’ll oppose timelines to bring our troops home from the unwinnable civil war in Iraq.
This Monday, you have the chance to ask him what changed his mind. Can you join other MoveOn members to ask Rep. Baird the tough questions about his new pro-war views?
What: Town Hall meeting with Rep. Baird
August 26th, 2007 at 9:59 amWhere: Fort Vancouver High School Auditorium
5700 E. 18th St., Vancouver, WA
When: 7:00 pm on Monday, August 27th

Even if this rant was true, you’re under the mistaken assumption that the posters of this site are necessarily American. Many who take an interest in the worldwide terror caused by GWB are not American.

The statement is true, which can be easily determined by reading the words of the folks posting here over a short period of time.
There can only be two choices: Either the far-left despises their own country, as indicated by their very words, or they are simply lying to get attention. So, in short, they are either traitors, or liars.
And if someone from outside the U.S. is preaching U.S. economic collapse, and wishing death to our fellow U.S. citizens, then that makes them part of the terrorist enemy, doesn’t it?
Either way, they should be handled accordingly.
Furthermore, George Dubya has caused no worldwide terror. To his credit, he has taken part, with other nations, in fighting terror worldwide. And successfully, I might add.

and please note that those laws have been violated hundreds of times by the GOP administration, not the liberals. and please note that you are a lying fool, with treason your main instrument. You accuse liberals of “hiding behind” the Constitution, proving your disrespect for the Law of the land, and proving rightwing treason. You’d better read up on those laws yourself, since you have proven you have no understanding of them whatsoever. Are you hiding behind Mein Kampf?

Bush is the world’s biggest terrorist, and has made America worldwide terrorism’s chosen target. You have nothing but lies and antiAmerican fanatasy. Your hatred and disrespect for the troops and the law is highlighted in every treasonous lie you post. Send your wife’s kids off to die, you hatge Americans anyway.
August 26th, 2007 at 10:17 amIt must be nice to be rich/famous/powerful in America… You can get drunk and speed and get caught with cocain and spend 60 minutes in jail for it… or invade a country totally ignoring the golden rule and our own Constitution and get away with it because no will will make you account. Iraq will for all time be a crime, but the definition of crime means nothing if you dont pay for it. I feel no personal need to follow any laws… only what I feel is personally right because that is what the rich and powerful get away with.
August 26th, 2007 at 10:26 amTwo successful, unprosecuted terrorist attacks on the “Homeland” under Bush’s watch. Congratulations, America-hating scumsucking rightards! You’re a greater danger to US security than Hitler was!
August 26th, 2007 at 10:26 amBigfoot, maybe you should give your definition of “terrorist”.
August 26th, 2007 at 10:34 amI just read “The great Iraq Swindle” on line form Rolling Stone Magazine. Google it if you want to see what traitors to the United States really look like. Grrrrrrrrr

August 26th, 2007 at 10:43 amOh sure, that goes through.
August 26th, 2007 at 10:43 amHey Dave, I’ve been having trouble with anything I paste in from anywhere not showing up.
August 26th, 2007 at 10:55 amI’m not sure how TP knows it’s pasted, but if I just type in the paraphrase, it always goes thru.
And Baird’s an idiot for turning this war into his little pony show.
It’s going to cost him his seat.
Dave C, …Unless one is a troll….My only post in day’s, if it goe’s through will likely be the last…..Blessings all.

Psychotic snap. He’s gone. Totally incoherent.

Then why are you responding to him. At least 3/4 of the posts in this thread are by Francine (our resident troll who likes to ask unanswerable ridiculous questions, but refuses to answer questions) and Makarios who is certifiably insane. The remainder are you folks responding to their posts. Is this what TP has become?
August 26th, 2007 at 11:08 amSharon,
Faiz promised us a lot, and delivered little.
Registration is a very easy program to install. Pee brain changed his site from anonymous to register only while we were posting there! That’s how easy it is.
And the idiot’s posts are still here, 11:00 am.
**sigh**
Blessings to you.
August 26th, 2007 at 11:12 amGood point, bilbo.
August 26th, 2007 at 11:13 amIt is difficult to not smack their crap down, but one only gets troll stink on them when they engage them.
Not much action here on a Sunday AM, but a new Webb related thread just came up.
Keep up the sane commentary!
Morning, Sharon! I spent the day with Miss Amber yesterday, with the missus working. I sure wanted to get up to the lake, but just had too much else going on.
August 26th, 2007 at 11:22 amBlessings to you!!
The problem is that the smackdowns & troll responses go through like butter while the content gets stopped. So you end up with long threads of insults like this one. It would make more sense to ban the trolls, or at a minimum ignore them, remove their garbage & have smaller threads with actual on-topic conversations. As it is now it’s not worth stating/supporting an opinion.
btw, ever notice how on this site the initial article is usually a supported statement on something that has happened… the libs respond either favorably regarding that topic or add more links/support to what is being said, while the reps simply attack the messenger(s). Rather then mount an argument & support it they just attack those that disagree with them. That’s the first sign of being on the losing end of an issue.
August 26th, 2007 at 11:37 amAh, he’s been talkin to Hillary. He must be another of the republicans in disguise.
August 26th, 2007 at 11:45 amDid Baird receive his own personalized anthrax letter recently?
Worked wonders with Daschle and Leahy when they started asking questions about the PATRIOT Act, potentially holding up “progress.”
August 26th, 2007 at 1:00 pmIf Baird and the other sheep (my apologies to our woolly friends) in Congress have decided to “allow” the troops more time, how about allowing the troops who are already stationed there an “up or down” vote as to whether they stay or leave?
If the intent is to support the U. S. military in Iraq & Afghanistan, this would be the least the warmongers in Congress & the White House could do.
August 26th, 2007 at 1:13 pmSo was this another ten to fourteen hour stay in the most heavily fortified areas of Iraq?
Since Iraq is just slightly larger in land area than California, and has a slightly larger population than Texas, then perhaps an extended layover at LAX or DFW would be sufficient for the frustrated traveler to submit a definitive, detailed statement about the current conditions of that entire state.
The only difference is, you could venture out into the countryside on your own in either state and have a reasonably good chance of returning alive.
August 26th, 2007 at 1:22 pmBrassmask –
Democrat Jerry Springer was elected to Cincinnati’s city council in 1971, when he was just 27 years old.
One just one sample you can come up with, nice. Do you really want someone to post ALL of the Repukians that have? I believe the list is too long to post, besides we all have seen the list posted on the web and it is laughable.
And you notice I did only one post at 2:20 am, you know why cause I am not a loser like you and have a life. The wife and I had a very nice time out with our daughter, who is going to Mount Holyoke (private Ivy League womens college, because I am sure a loser like you would not know this) this September, that’s 3,661.50 a month for her schooling…which is more than you earn at RNC as a paid troll in a year.
You don’t pay for sex brassmask, because no one would except even money from a loser like you, of course unless they are a repukian male hooker like Jeffy poo.
August 26th, 2007 at 1:52 pmBrian Baird is my rep and usually is right on target. He’s having town meetings tonight and tomorrow. I’m unable to attend tonight so will be traveling down the road to one tomorrow.
I’ll be pointing out to him that the surge is only working where the ethnic cleansing has already been successful such as Bagdad, previously 65% Sunni, now 75% Shia. I’ll also ask him where he’s planning on getting the troops and if he’ll call for a draft.
How much longer can we surge? Its a question he needs to answer. General Pace says no longer, we don’t have the troops.
