Support For Iraq War Dwindling

Just apologize.

 

[D-Backs Hack]

I can't wait -- can't wait -- for the apologies to start rolling in to the Bush Administration from the hear no conservative, see no conservative liberal lapdogs. If an apology from me is that anticipated, the earth shakes with anticipation for your repentance.

Apologize for what? Being right about Iraq?

Sorry, you're going to be waiting a while.

Bull****. Nuclear devices can be dirty bombs that fit into a suitcase.

1. A suitcase of Uranium still weights . . . a ton.

2. Has a nuclear "dirty bomb" ever been detonated . . . anywhere? . . . or constructed . . . anywhere? . . . or even attempted to be constructed . . . anywhere?

It's a nice little doomsday theory: nuclear = bad + terrorists = bad = FEAR!!!!

Never mind that it would take the equivalent of winning the Powerball lottery four weeks in a row to actually pull off such a stunt.

Or completely buy into the theory that Iran would ever hand over a nuclear device to a bunch of completely unstable loons who could just as easily turn around and blackmail Iran by threatening to use it against them.

And that's not even taking into account what the U.S. would do when (not if, but when) it sniffed out the device . . . with Iran's fingerprints all over it.

Yep, Iran would certainly take that risk . . . for what possible gain?

But Truman was unpopular in his day, and now he's been vindicated. It's the same thing!!!

Awesome. Its not often I get to get pissed off at 1:30 a.m. And back to the topic. Remember this:

Yes, **** Scaife is an unabashed conservative. Yes, **** Scaife poured a **** TON Of money into funding the Clinton investigations. But there is has always been a Liberatarian streak to that paper. You just have to look for it sometimes. Mainly, ****'s a dollars and cents, supply and demand, macro and micro conservative. He really couldn't give a **** less about Christian Conservatives, the Religious Right, the Moral Majority or the rest of those ****s.

Well, there was this episode of "24" ...

It's called "responding in kind." JR is an asshole to ANYBODY who doesn't share his beliefs.

That's not true. I don't share a lot of his beliefs, and vice versa, and JR is not an asshole to me at all.

Every rule has its exceptions, I guess.

McCain speaking now.

I'm starting to fade.

Or it could be that you simply interpret things wrong quite a bit. It's possible.

I don't hate it. I kind of like it. But pizza at every meal makes pizza bland.

If she put some pineapple on his head, would that make it tastier?

He's also a complete loon.

Fantastic piece. Thanks Boomer.

That Wolfowitz passage is astonishing. He "didn't really want an occupation."
Jesus, these people knew nothing.

Just when you think they can't surprise you any more ...

 

[Football_Bat]

Everytime I see the word "Homeland" I think of "Fatherland" (Nazi Germany) or "Motherland" (Soviet Russia).

And the clocks strike thirteen ....

 

[Yawn]

And this just occurred to you as a Democrat?

 

[jgmacg]

Just apologize.

 

[Yawn]

jg, for the 40th time, if you've been in Iraq, you've got an apology I made earlier. If you aren't, you aren't entitled to ****.

Now go back and Tivo that exciting Senate snoozefest.
