Just in case anyone missed it, today, the Iraqi Prime Minister's spokesman said that Iraq would like to see the American troops out of Iraq by the end of 2010. Also, the Iraqi Vice-President said the same thing, he would like to have American troops out by Dec. 31, 2010.
The end of 2010. hmm, is that closer to Obama's 16 months or McSame's 100 years?
Really is a slap in the face, isn't it, when the government that Bushie and his ilk put into place, now totally ignore everything Bushie's said and embraced the opposition? Obama wants the troops home, the American people want the troops home, now the Iraqi's want to troops home. Think any of the Republicans are listening to this?
Actually, I watched the BillO The Clown tonight to see the Fox Noise spin on this, and Billo and two retired generals were all saying how Obama's probably not going to learn very much by only spending a few days in Iraq. Of course, they didn't address the Iraqi statements at all. And by the way, exactly how many days has McSame spent in Iraq that he learned all his knows about foreign policy.
Which brings up another nifty issue: Today on TV, McSame stated something about the "Iraq-Pakistan border". Someone really needs to show him a map. Afghanistan borders Iraq. Don't believe me? See below:
See, there's two countries, Iran and Afghanistan, between Iraq and Pakistan. And while this gaffe alone isn't much...except that McSame has already referred to Czechoslovakia twice...which ceased to exist back in the early 90's and because two seperate countries. And he doesn't know the difference between Sunni and Shite Muslims. And he needs to be corrected by Joe Lieberman about Al-Queda, not Iran, supporting troops in Iraq.
McSame has already stated he's not real up on economic issues. His domestic policy was devised by a man, Phil Gramm, who called us whiners and set up the Enron Exception so oil speculators can drive the price of oil up. McSame's whole thing was foreign policy and his stand on Iraq. And now, the leaders of Iraq are closer to Obama's vision than they are to McSame's vision.
What exactly DOES McSame have left to run on?

Gramm is also responsible for the deregulation that led to bank debacles now...along with Bill Clinton:

I thought I read about Obama now wanting to send the troops in Iraq over to Afghanistan where they could be of more use.
Hmmm. Bringing the troops home does not equal sending them to Afghanistan even if they are needed there.
But....politicians change their minds. Both Obama and McFrail have already flip-flopped on issues and no doubt will flip-flop on more before (and after) the election.
Furry Godfather.
We do need to commit troops to Afghanistan because the Taliban is coming back into power and it needs to be put down.
Of course we shouldn't be in either place. Remember, 17 of the 19 hijackers that were involved with the attack of 09/11/01 were Saudi Arabian. Not Iraqi, Iranian, Afghanistani or Pakistani. They were Saudi.
Yet we invade Iraq and Afghanistan. Yeah, ok.
The only thing McBush has left is evangelical Christians and even their number is a result of creative accounting.
I think people have had enough o the evangelical bullshit, and the Republicans too.
I'm also guessing that Sen. Jack Reed may actually be Obama's Veep candidate. Glory be, a RI'er as Veep!
Friends say you need someone from the south, I say we've all had enough of the south and they've exacted more of ttheir fair share of revenge for the loss of the Civil War.
We need a Midwest/Northeast duo.
This is not a map, it is a sketch nothing more. LOL And where is Europe, where is Italy and the other countries, there are left somewhere else or the kid ho drew this run out of paper. Sad, sad, sad
