First off, you opposed the war for one reason or another and now it turned out to be a success thats it and you were wrong it is that simple. On the another note if you are stopped out on a trade that eventually turns out to be correct, hell yeah you are wrong. You got stopped out and lost money. You have to be in it to win it. I am a broker and I see the turn around rate so it is your journey that you should be focused on and statistically speaking you are a loosing trader, as for myself I make money everyday.
ok , if you say so.......thank you for taking the time to reply..I wish you much luck....peace. P.S. Just because I opposed the War doesnt mean I was wrong; does it. Had I said this war will take years or we will suffer 100,000 of casualties then you might have a leg to stand on. P.P.S. if you get stopped out and the trade then goes in ur favor , you are most definitely not wrong... Thats why you have a stop loss, that is the most risk you will take on any particular trade...
Speaking for myself (as an "anti-war" guy), the military effort itself (ie "the war") was a success (or seems very likely to be). Then again, I never claimed that the military effort in defeating the Iraqi forces would be UNsuccessful (although I did wish it to be). So I obviously wasn't "wrong" about that. LOL. Reading it again, your logic is completely laughable. Anyone that opposed this war, for whatever reason, according to you, is now "wrong", given that the military effort was successful. That is really funny. Thanks Comps, you always manage to get a chuckle out of me.
Maybe I come from the old school, but if you loose money on a trade you are wrong and if you make money on a trade than you are right. If you were so right than why didn't you get back in?
El Cubano had the balls to say he was wrong about the success and outcomes of the war. Lay off him for a minute in order to pound on the cowards, they are the ones who deserve it.
Since I have trouble believing that these lefties really understand their position. I beseech Harry to start giving us links to the UN documents from those womens conferences and the population conferences. If Harry puts up those links then you will really see what animates the far left and liberation opposition. . By the way these documents are ignored for a while and then all of a sudden are brought up as persuasive arguments for international law so they should not be ignored. That is why we fought over the wording in these Iraqi resolutions. If you read this stuff you will see that there is large "left wing conspiracy" to pretty much oppose every thing the west and the United States have stood for over the last 200 years. I suppose if you hate self determination and the right to believe what you want to believe--- then you might as well sign up with the UN leftists. This real left is communist spun as world government and un cooperation. Watch out. P.S. I know not all democrats are what I am calling lefties here. And I also know the really far right sort of meets up with the really far left when it comes to want to screw us over.
Fonzerelli, Now looking back that post was half baked. I should have said alfonso is a women trapped in a mans body!
The one rule that seems to pop up is, stop treating your own people like shit or we will step in. You are moraly blind and when you get a real job and take your nose out of those books and realize how the world actually works.
Ok then dotslashmondo, how about you show me just where I was "wrong" about the war? You know, it's so funny to see a group of (alleged) traders get so emotional about a military victory and prematurely start proclaiming it a "success" for the people of Iraq. Let's just wait and see what the situation is like 6 months down the track. The common Iraqi may well find he was yanked (pun intended) from a simmering frying pan into a raging fire.
