Incidentally, what exactly do we get when we win? It would likely be somewhat like Pakistan; A new government, hostile to American and much more aligned with Iran than it is now. I'm just guessing and speculating, though.
And then....there's this:
IMF says US crisis is 'largest financial shock since Great Depression'

And we're just getting started. I heard that the subprime mess will go on another 18 months and another 4 million loans will roll over to higher rates, causing more waves of foreclosures. I expect several big banks to fail.
I think you'r right on the bank failure issue.....and I think its coming soon. Oh hell its only money.
And I hear that 100 thousand jobs were lost in March alone (gulp). Perhaps we'll get another war to test our "patriotism "....
if supporting Bush equals patriotism, then I'll be a red commie traitor. ;-)
A survey released Thursday showed just 28 percent approve of the overall job he is doing. His previous record low in the poll was 30 percent last month.
Remember April 29, 1975, Siagon. the Final Escape at the US Embassy?
With the way the Green Zone is being bombed and 18 deaths in Iraq the l;st 4 days.....
just thinkin'
CLOSE!
That silly Suzy Orman said back in January I SPECIFICALLY remember her saying that this will all bottom out by summer and things will turn around......SHE seems to have changed her tune since January

While Richard Falk's, Milbank professor of international law emeritus at Princeton University, specialty is human rights and international law, since the attacks in 2001, he has devoted some of his time to challenging what he calls the “9-11 official version.”

Yes, we need a Washington DC channel that covers things end to end and WAITS until the talking - question/answer sessions are OVER before they try to narrate what has been heard. Right now, there is no channel to watch the news feed. I'm sure there are plenty of other policy wonks, like me, who would watch something similar to C-SPAN but a channel that would CONCENTRATE on hearings/press briefings instead of watching proceedings in congress.
Anyway ...That makes two of us bud!!!!
I'm not your buddy, friend.
You're not my friend, guy.
I'm not your guy, buddy. ;-) (from last week's South Park)

And few Dems who actually will push it. Sadly, substituting a Dem dictator for the shithead we have now is NOT democracy...I'd say all Dems in Congress need an education on what Bush/Cheney has wrought, and it shouldn't have to take an economic meltdown to get people stirrred up. If that's the way it's going to be, though, I'd say the majority of Americans need to bone up on their Constitution and Bill of Rights. What's the point of having material stuff when you don't have the freedoms you're supposed to have?
It really isn't just a goddamned piece of paper...
never watch it dude....it.drives me crazy.
something tells me you were bonkers before the first episode of South Park ever aired! LOL
In the back of my mind I kept thinking of the Kyle-Lieberman legislation ( as well as the happy Hitlery signing her support)
LIEberman is a dual-agent warmonger. Joe's already shown he doesn't give a damn about Connecticut or America. His loyalties lies elsewhere. Hint: Tel Aviv! ;-)
WASHINGTON, Sep 12 (IPS) - In sharp contrast to the lionisation of Gen. David Petraeus by members of the U.S. Congress during his testimony this week, Petraeus's superior, Admiral William Fallon, chief of the Central Command (CENTCOM), derided Petraeus as a sycophant during their first meeting in Baghdad last March, according to Pentagon sources familiar with reports of the meeting.
Fallon told Petraeus that he considered him to be "an ass-kissing little chickenshit" and added, "I hate people like that", the sources say. That remark reportedly came after Petraeus began the meeting by making remarks that Fallon interpreted as trying to ingratiate himself with a superior.
And that's how Fallon loses his, by telling the truth.

The United States should stay in Iraq.
April 9, 2008, 8:00 pm Posted by Kozlo in Election2008
The United States should stay in Iraq and accomplish our mission. I support General David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker. They are doing a fine job in bringing home to America the realities of what's going on in Iraq and what's at stake in any future decisions we make as a country in regards to Iraq.
We can't and must not leave Iraq for several reasons.
1. Al Qaeda is not fully been destroyed.
2. If we leave Iraq too soon, Iran will move in to fill the void.
Hey Democrats, stop trying to sell-out our mission in the mid-east. Take your white flag off your stick and fold it up and put it away. Face it, we aren't going to leave Iraq fully even with a Democrat or a Republican in the White House. The bottomline is that the Republicans are honest about it. The worthless Dems aren't.
