do we need more troops or do we not need more troops

    http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2005/06/29/national/w075030D43.DTL


Democrats wanted more troops on the ground. Now that bush is putting more troops on the ground

Democrats Don't want more troops on the ground. 0.o

Quote:
Sen. John McCain, interviewed on CBS's "The Early Show," maintained that "one of the very big mistakes early on was that he didn't have enough troops on the ground, particularly after the initial victory, and that's still the case."


Sen. John Kerry, Bush's Democratic opponent in last year's presidential election, told NBC's "Today" show that the borders of Iraq "are porous" and said "we don't have enough troops" there.


Sen. Joseph Biden Jr., appearing on ABC's "Good Morning America," disputed Bush's notion that sufficient troops are in place.

I think the bigger question is "What For?"

To enable the Iraqi Army & Police to develop capability to rule their own domain, or to keep getting killed by the endless tide of insurgents from the Syrian and Iranian regimes that your prezzydunt has demonised?

Liberal Conspiracy
*******
TILT
As Paulsol pointed out in the other thread, the total number of troops, even with the "surge" won't even equal the initial number we sent in.

Comparing it to criticisms that we should have had perhaps twice the initial number of troops going into the conflict is a bit disingenuous.

"Disingenuous" is Joph's nice way of saying "retarded."

EDIT: Damn you, Nobby.

At this point I'm waiting for:

W: "WE WIN!!! NOW WE'RE GETTING THE F OUT!!!"


W to the dems: "Did I make you guys happy yet? I can suck you off if I didn't."


I'm so tired of politics and politicians. Can we just get someone competent in office, or are all of you people going to keep voting for the same two parties that have been ******** us for decades now?

Isn't Varus the leader of the **** for Brains Party? Or was he the Republican Party Leader?

I get them confused.

I wouldn't vote for him/her if they were the only person running. I'd vote for myself again.
