Joseph M: That is because they caused the war, and they are now angry that Obama has not, as yet, fixed their screwups. They would like a magician, not a president. If Blackstone Jr. would have run for president, you can be sure he would have recieved 99% of the Palin crowd's, idiot neocon vote. You know the ones, "Praise the lord and pass the ammunition, Kill, kill, kill, in the name of Jesus.This is why they have been reduced to little more than a laughing stock. They give us a good laugh each day, sort of like the 3 stooges did back in the day. What harm can they do, no one takes them seriously. I seriously doubt they believe what they say. No one could be that displaced from reality and continually be that stupid.

Kevin E. how come when it is something you think is a possitive about the war it is Bush's war but when it is something negative it is Oboma's war?

Kevin - so, then I wonder... did things turn out this way, in Iraq, with the oil simply as an effort on Iraq's part to make a point, so to speak? The quote you posted seems to imply that Iraq felt as tho they needed to rpove that the US cannot influence them... so, despite the reasons (or rumored/believed reasons) for the war, Iraq made a conscious effort to prove that wrong... Does that make sense? Although, I see Exxon got a contract... which I find interesting... isn't Cheney tied to Exxon somehow, or am I mistaken, and he's tied to some other oil company? I can't remember now... and I'm too lazy to go look it up...

Well, we knew things were starting to go sour on us when our troops weren't greeted with flowers...When the GOP mans up and admits responsibility for this colossal blunder I'll start thinking about forgiving.
