@ratsnacage1 The name suits, I hope you never get out of the cage, after the dems and Obama, you won't know how to spell "rights", Obama has taken health care, the auto industry, and the banking, the new bill, gives him the power to decide what companies fail or stay in business, and F. Mae and F. Mac are not included, the gov. controls the mortgages of which they now own 96%. The debt under Obama is the highest in history, the New York Times recount in 2000 proved Bush did WIN.

God help us if they get any more power, Republican's have done enough damage , they are simply incapable of running this country. There ill affect's are still reeking havoc, dividing this country. They have managed to get the whole world mad at us, Outsourced our job's, run us into deb't, Billion's in cash disappearing in Iraq, Taking our right's away, Trashing the Constitution, Torture, Wiretapping, Supreme court appointing Bush, Illegal war's, It's just endless. Please get out and vote D.

This report took balls

I meant Afghanistan ..... was another story ....

[perfectbark]

and the IED situation appears to be almost completely unmanageable

[perfectbark]

I know, and I see the examples of this in the documentaries here in the states ..... BUT, I don't think that it was worth a drop of American blood AND I believe that we had Saddam in a corner where he was rendered pretty harmless, and by now he may have fallen on his own sword. The good will and nation building could have come later, perhaps after his inevitable death.

Iraq was another story and was one of the few areas where I supported Bush '43

As long as Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin remain the headlining Republicans, then the party is going to have a hard time resurging in any meaningful way. They might pick up a few seats in congress and make it even harder for Democrats to pass legislation, but they're not going to redefine American politics.

If they want to come back, they should re-establish a track record of responsible governance on the state level because the next Republican president is going to be a former governor.

We probably didn't have to invade again but since we did it we've done alot of good & we've also rang up a heft price tag. Lot's of wasted taxpayer dollars too. However all for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing. Saddam was for sure a bad guy who killed thousands of his own people. That I detest.
