Brown and Bush...

[j2k4]

My perverted mind cant get past the Brown and Bush title...

Congratulations for being the first to catch that.

Everyone else's views are so purely political, you see...

Welcome back Kev. Did Clocker feed and water you OK?

I'm not sure I understand why people are complaining that Blair wanted to stick by Bush. Seems kinda odd. An ally helping us out...hmmmm.

As far as Brown goes, only time will tell if he will bow to the pressure of the "peace" people...the ones that overturn cars and light things on fire and throw Molotov cocktails( the Finnish people excluded). England will probably suffer another attack before we do. The jihadist are very...shall we say, infectious there?

We have other allies too. An ally is one thing.

Common sense is another.

There was probably fear that we wouldn't help them in their time of need.

In this case though, brats look at it as Bush starting some shit and then asking for help.

Many Americans feel the same way.

You have to admit that this war is a clusterfuck. I blame Bush mostly.

I will admit that from what the MSM is reporting it appears to be,yes.

But I'm an "are you there?" kinda guy.

Just for the sake of politeness...have any of your buddies returned safely?

A friend of a friend...killed.

Everyone else is fine, to my knowledge.

What is "are you there"?

What is "are you there"?

"Are you there?" means are you in Iraq? Are you a soldier? Are you fighting on the front lines? That sort of thing.

What the MSM reports on Iraq doesn't hold too much water with me anymore.

It has become too political. So I would rather hear reports from the soldiers themselves and guage things that'a way.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend of a friend's loss. Glad to hear everyone else is fine.

I like hearing from the soldiers behind closed doors. It does me amaze that people think a soldier telling a reporter something that is somewhat pro-Iraq war that it's how that soldiers really feels.

I'm against the Iraq war and I think that's how he should talk.
They should put out the company line.

Get him behind closed doors or around the right people and it's different story. Every single soldier I've talked to besides one I saw from school from hates the reasons they are there and say it's FUBAR.

They don't believe it's a just war.

Thanks, Bob.

A good time was had by all.

Time is still tight, though; hard to shake loose for a spell here.

But as in anything you give me 5 who are againts it and I'll show you 5 who are for it.

Some depends,I suppose, on which side of the aisle their views are.

I'd guess alot of the men and women are from military families.

I've never been completely sure why we are in Iraq to begin with.

Oil? Hussein? Al Qaeda? Imperialism? It's whatever you want to believe.

I try not to argue about it because it's damn near pointless.

Sure Bush made "mistakes" and Rummy made "mistakes". History will judge them.

We are all tired and disgusted with the death toll.

If tomorrow I woke up and heard the news saying we were pulling out I would feel SUCH relief. And then reality would set in and we would have to find the fight somewhere else.

We will all be taking dirt naps before it ends.....maybe.
