    He was too busy getting hummers for the past 8 years.

    And now Hillary might run?

  3. Is this your prose, or are you quoting someone? How do you know that there is less talk of this kind within the mosques?

    Maybe a lot of Iraqis like Iranian TV, like the the Iraqi Shiites.

    The Allied forces have media in Iraq. Are you suggesting we should have taken over a significant portion of their wave spectrum?

    One great success of the military victory has been the freedom of the press and the proliferation of new indigenous Iraqi newspapers, newsletters, magazines. THis will help the US in the long run, I beleive.

  4. Let's say that at one hummer a day, and we will be generous in the amount of time for the hummer, say, 30 minutes, that still gave Clinton plenty of time to be President.

    What's the use of being the most powerful man in the world if you can't get a hummer on demand?

  5. Iraq solution


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Quote from Nolan-Vinny-Sam:

    Step one- dumya steps down Him and his cronies started this bullshit, do you really trust them to finish it??????? :confused:

    Step two- give 100$ to each Iraqi, let them vote, elect their OWN fucking rulers. 65% vote for clerics? so be it, it's fucking democracy.

    Step 3- get the hell out of there.

    Step 4- crucify the liars back home. Hold new elections.

    bullshit war, a complete fraud, waste of taxpayers money andsoldiers blood

    Step 5- take the $$ from HAL,Betchel and give it back to the taxpayers,

    Step 6- find out who really did the 9-11 stone them in public (hint hint.. most are here in the US foes dressed as friends)

    Step 7- send Mavman,Gordo, Romeo aka sardo,abraMondo.... to Saudi Arabia. Bomb the crap out of them.

    :D :D :D

  6. Doesn't anyone wonder if we would have been better off spending all these billions on alternative energy sources domestic infrastructure healthcare education, instead of this mess called Iraq war?
    Not to mention the still mounting loss of lives

    Of course with out the war, profits for the military industrial complex not to mention oil companies would not be there, but that's a different story.

    According to some other studies, the total cost may exceed the 2 trillion???
