  " This votes emboldens the enemy and who doesn't think the terrorists will just follow our troops home?"

  GOP minority leader John Boehner

  I do! I do! But then I'm not a tool of the imperialistic aspirations of this criminal government.

  If ever there was a reason for outlawing the Republican party this ranks up there. Hmmm... since when did the emotional feelings of insurgents really matter in a war of bullets? Do we really care if they are "emboldened?" If we do, hasn't four years of disasterous occupation emboldened them so much they've run out of ways to be "emboldened?"

  Then there's the most ridiculous statement of a clearly warmongering insane man. Does anyone really think the Iraqi insurgents will follow our troops home? I can just imagine our nation cowering under their beds as a veritable fleet of small boats loaded with terrorists slowly sails to our naked shores; pausing only once or twice to be torpedoed by our Navy or shot down by our Air Force.

  Of course there is the historical perspective. Poor England. Once they pulled out of Yorktown in 1781 our Minutemen followed their troops home. When France left Vietnam they were inundated with Vietnamese knocking down the Eiffel tower and forcing their people to eat Pho Ga. When the Dutch pulled out of Indonesia they were followed home and thrust under the yoke of nutmeg eating terrorists who kill cartoonists. When England quit India their poor citizens were forced to take calls from American morons wondering why their computer just crashed. Ok, sarcasm aside, but did the Vietcong follow our troops home in 1973? No. So you get the point. If we continue this disasterous policy the only Iraqis following our troops home will be tens of thousands of refugees fleeing the most radical extremes we have put in power. On the plus side we Americans might finally enjoy decent pita bread and a good falafal.

  This is an illegal war. It was illegal the day it started and each day our troops are occupying Iraq it is a continuing illegal act. Congress shouldn't be debating the surge, it should be debating the war itself. And if the GOP really wants to support the troops it should quit assuming they like being in Iraq and start acknowledging what the troops have known since 2003; they are not wanted there, they are accomplishing nothing there, they shouldn't be there, their presence undermines, not supports, our security and the best way to support them is to redeploy them in a way that actually serves their mission of protecting our nation while respecting the sovereignty of independent nations instead of treating them as recalcitrant vassals of our empire.

  You know, the Nazis were treated better by the citizens of the Soviet Union when they invaded then we were by Iraq. Think about it.

• Welcome to the Human Project, Bill

  Hey Bill!

  Glad you're here. Before you post again look around. Check out the site. I recommend the comics. They are my favorite. There is also Tabletalk (I can't figure out how to get on but everyone else says it's cool). Broadsheet will give you the MO on broads. That is how you refer to them right? Or maybe uncovered meat. Hard to say. There is The Fix which will keep you up to date on what really matters in this world. Rich or missing white chicks. How could our democracy survive without drunk, pantyless or missing white chicks. Yet everyone gets so verklempt of a simple colonization of a small country of savage ragheads. Go figure. Well you did find the War Room and I am very thankful for your input. You are absolutely right Bill.

  I agree. Until the Dems offer a person with all the answers and the ability to change water to wine we must obey our Commander in Chief. Never mind that I am no longer in the service or that most the population are citizens. We are at war dammit! And we all are soldiers in the cause of God! Praise Jeesuss! Bush is our Commander and until the Messiah returns to be tortured and killed by Mel Gibson we must obey Dubya.

  Now, Bill, if you were to go to other sites including Obamas, Hillary's or other people you think should be in Guantanamo you would find intelligent alternatives to Bush.

  But that is not why I called. What I really want to know is 1) where were you in 1995 when a right wing religiuos fundamentalist blew up the FBI building in Oklahoma? Why didn't you call for what Dubya did; create a concentration camp for all members of religious militias in America and demand that we declare a holy war against the evil Christianity that would slaughter so many men women and children (you did know there was a daycare center in the building, right?).

  2) Since your posts appear to lack any evidence of independent thought, which of your handlers sent you an e-mail, letter, message to your brain to go on liberal sites with such a stupid request? Was it Rush? Hannity? The guy formely known as Weiner now known as Savage? Honestly, what marching instructions were you given and who gave them to you. I know you didn't come up with this yourself. Your very defensiveness about your low IQ gives that away.

  Perhaps there is hope for you, now that you've found this site. Here are some helpful hints. Quit using the Bible as an excuse to beat your wife, have sex with your children and hate the Jews and blacks. Start with "I think. Therefore I am" and work your way up. If that seems too deep for you, then just keep banging those rocks together until you discover fire.
