		<description>Yeah that is a great movie, I have it on DVD and still watch it every time it comes on TV. 

Um, yeah, we went in there for Regime Change, that means we get a government that is US friendly in place.  It was just to oust Saddam there would have been no need to invade. 

We can line up Generals on both sides of the aisle and it really won&#039;t mean anything. The only thing that will matter is when all is said and done, is there a US friendly government running Iraq? I can just  imagine how crazy every one thought the US was when we rebuilt Japan and Germany, and then allowed them to rule themselves. How did that work out for us?</description>

		<description>Any post from the one who thinks that Saddam sits in &quot;heaven&quot; because the evil Bush and Cheney took him out has nothing of importance to say. Period.

Moving along, George W. Bush will be viewed, not in our lifetime, but in eternity as one of the top five presidents IN OUR HISTORY. At a pivotal time, he kept us on course as the greatest nation in the world. 

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and we are proud in America to behold George W. Bush. 

Let&#039;s be clear: The sorosites do not like America. They want to turn her into Europe.  Simply put, they want to steal the soul of America and kill her joy. Sorry, but they won&#039;t succeed as we have faced many and greater enemies than them.

G_d bless America! Home of the FREE and Land of the BRAVE.</description>

		<description>1.  Kelly&#039;s Heroes rules.

2.  We already won the war.  In about the first 43 minutes. The justifrication for war was to stop Saddam Hussein and his WMD&#039;s.  &lt;i&gt;Mission Accomplished.&lt;/i&gt;  Job 1 is done; now it&#039;s time for Job 2, getting the troops home alive.  

3.  Bush is an incompetent - but don&#039;t take my word, take the word of Gen. William Odom,  former U.S. Army 3-star general and Director of the NSA under President Ronald Reagan: &lt;blockquote&gt;I am not now nor have I ever been a Democrat or a Republican. Thus, I do not speak for the Democratic Party. I speak for myself, as a non-partisan retired military officer who is a former Director of the National Security Agency. 

In principle, I do not favor Congressional involvement in the execution of U.S. foreign and military policy. I have seen its perverse effects in many cases. The conflict in Iraq is different. Over the past couple of years, the President has let it proceed on automatic pilot, making no corrections in the face of accumulating evidence that his strategy is failing and cannot be rescued.

Thus, he lets the United States fly further and further into trouble, squandering its influence, money, and blood, facilitating the gains of our enemies. The Congress is the only mechanism we have to fill this vacuum in command judgment.

To put this in a simple army metaphor, &lt;b&gt; Commander-in-Chief seems to have gone AWOL, that is &#039;absent without leave.&#039;&lt;/b&gt;neither acts nor talks as though he is in charge.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>SS:
Sorry, Jimmy Carter has places 1 through 10 for worst President ever. 

And a quote for you from a great Clint Eastwood movie...

&quot;Always with the negative waves..&quot;

Why are you so intent on the US losing this war? I&#039;d really like to hear your reason.</description>

		<description>You guys lined up to swill the Kool-Ade should realize a couple of things:

1.  The success stories are mostly lies:

&lt;blockquote&gt;In a report that deeply contradicts repeated claims from officials that reconstruction in Iraq have seen remarkable progress, &lt;b&gt;a federal oversight agency has found that among eight projects previously touted as sucesses in the rebuilding effort, a remarkable seven are no longer operating as intended&lt;/b&gt;.

While in previous cases, the administration admitted that certain projects had been abandoned due to various security and maintenence issues, this marks the first instance in which projects that had formerly been deemed sucessful were no longer functioning.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

2.  Because Bush and Cheney are amoral sociopaths, without a shred of decency, they are more concerned about preserving the fiction of success in Iraq than they are about the lives of our soldiers, and are prepared to delay the day of reckoning, even if that delay results in the deaths of hundreds - or even thousands - more US troops - and the people who continue to support him are aiding and abetting him in betraying the troops.

2.  Sooner or later the lies must end - and when the public finds out the extent of the lying - there will be hell to pay.

3.  Bush&#039;s &quot;legacy&quot; is going to be nothing more than being the worst president in history. Period.</description>

		<description>sooth:

Bush said a long time ago that it would be the end of summer before we would know ultimately how successful the surge would be.

I am sure you will be happy to know that there will a lot of people killed in the meantime in the hopes that it will help your side, the terrorist side win. don&#039;t it make you proud, to know the terrorists who target women and children consider your kind to be their allies?</description>

		<description>Cue the sound of Bush backing off his surge analysis.  For the past few weeks, George has been on the stump pimping his Surge:

    &lt;i&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;April 10, 2007 - And what I&#039;m telling you is, according to David Petraeus, we&#039;re beginning to see some progress toward the mission

    April 20, 2007 -  Day by day, block by block, Iraqi and American forces are making incremental gains in Baghdad

     April 20, 2007  - The maps show the dramatic changes taking place in Ramadi . . . the capital of Anbar province.
 
        April 20, 2007 - Iraq&#039;s leaders have begun meeting their benchmarks &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/i&gt;

Now, however, and coincidentally just two days after Congress sends a funding bill for his signature - Bush backpedals abruptly :

    &lt;b&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The White House Scales Back Talk of Iraq Progress&lt;/b&gt;

WASHINGTON, April 27 â€” The Bush administration will not try to assess whether the troop increase in Iraq is producing signs of political progress or greater security until September, and &lt;b&gt;many of Mr. Bushâ€™s top advisers now anticipate that any gains by then will be limited&lt;/b&gt;, according to senior administration officials.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Is that  the sound of clucking coming from the chickens in the Oval Office?</description>
