[Buzzy]

There is no al Qaeda in Iraq, the left told me so. I also have noted that troops entered Sadr City unopposed for the first time in this war. Let's home this means a turning point in the whole thing so the Iraqi forces have a chance to secure the peace by themselves quicker.

[scarshapedstar]

Shouldn't that read "Al Qaeda in Iraq"? The wannabe organization?

[noen]

Surrender monkey? Did you make that up all by yourself or are you just... aping it?

Monkey see, monkey do.

[warrenb]

Yawn

[BobInStamford]

Geez, you'd think you heros were winning the war or something. Back to sleep cons.

[Buzzy]

Gee, from your statements some might think you guys support Islamofascism. Wonder why more and more of the public doubts that you support the troops every day. How is that defunding the war thing going Democrats.

[Andrew]

Wow, this is GREAT news. Imagine how much can be accomplished in another 4 years of fighting over there!

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- A suicide car bomber shattered a relative lull in Baghdad's violence Monday, killing at least 28 people in a blast that touched off raging fires and a blizzard of bloodstained paper from a popular book market.

And from Afghanistan:

KABUL (Reuters) - Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Monday condemned U.S. troops for shooting dead 10 civilians at the weekend as officials said nine more -- five women, four children and an old man -- had been killed in an air strike.

"Surrender monkeys" say the 29% of brain-washed Bushbots, from the safety of their living room. Go enlist, chickenhawk!

[Legalize]

Wow, this must mean that we've finally turned the corner. Mission accomplished, right?

"Gee, from your statements some might think you guys support Islamofascism."

Gee, from this statement someone might think you are a moron, incapbable of arguing the merits of the Iraq war, but choose rather to spout off meaningless terms like "Islamofascism."

"Wonder why more and more of the public doubts that you support the troops every day."

You mean the public that more and more, every day, thinks that the war is an utter failure, right?

"How is that defunding the war thing going Democrats."

How's that whole lying about the war; fighting the war; and Walter Reed thing going, GOPers?

[Zifnab]

Devil's Advocate, shut up! You're demoralizing the troops!

[Hard Right]

You're such a good mindless drone, legalize. Good thing you went into the legal profession where you don't have to think because you're not very good at it, just let the laws tell you what to do.
As usual your leftist hypocrisy is showing. You accuse buzzy of spouting meaningless terms then do basically the same thing.
You lefties know Bush didn't lie. You know the war is hardly lost and that Americans want to win. They also know that you don't support the troops. Ooooh Walter Reed. Yes, the problem at one VA hospital compares to how you lefties have smeared the ENTIRE military with Abu Ghraib and other scandals that are the acts of an extreme minority. It also doesn't compare with repeated slurs against our soldiers launched by your leftist presidential candidates. However, Walter reed is all you have so you beat it to death. Yeah, your kind really supports the troops. BTW Legalize, we know you only help the soldiers to pat yourself on the back. It's all about you, not them.

[Zifnab]

"You lefties know Bush didn't lie. You know the war is hardly lost and that Americans want to win. They also know that you don't support the troops."

Alright, HR, you can stop spoofing now. That one gave you away.

Awww, having a hard time "arguing" again today, ankel-biter?

"As usual your leftist hypocrisy is showing. You accuse buzzy of spouting meaningless terms then do basically the same thing."

Here we go again. For instance? The rest of your rambling was just too delusional and infantile to address for the millionth time.

[Hard Right]

I'll take that to mean that as usual, you can't out debate me.

[Devil's Advocate]

"Good thing you went into the legal profession where you don't have to think because you're not very good at it, just let the laws tell you what to do."

Wow, this has to be the dumbest thing I have read in a very long time. Hard Right seems to think that "laws" suddenly appear on the books out of nowhere, and that no amount of thinking is necessary to produce them and subsequently apply them. Astounding!

Welcome to the (mostly) finished basement that is Hard Right's world.

[Legalize]

"I'll take that to mean that as usual, you can't out debate me."

Oh, more accurately, you can take it to mean that you haven't made a supportable argument, and thus no debate (again) has occured between us, ankel-biter. Hint: you could start by pointing out where I've "basiclally" utilized meaningless terms analagous to "Islamofascism." Come on. Why do I have to hold your hand through these things every single time? If you're not careful, I will have to begin indirectly mocking you to save time, instead of mocking you directly.
