Uh, Iraq is further destabilizing every day. Not what I call "under control."

Then again you must take into account of the media spin

Media spin? MEDIA SPIN?! What media spin?! The media spends hours talking about a six year old girl who forgave the man who shot her (FOX) or the worlds greatest hamburger recipe (CNN). There is no media spin, because the media spends little time on it.

I realize that you agree with the Bush administration, SA, but open your eyes. Iraq is a hellhole getting hellier by the day, "media spin" be damned.

True but you have to admit that we really don't know what's going on in there.

PS...did you happen to get that recipe for the hamburger?

True. I'll agree to that. They should have really expected heavy resistance from Al-Qaeda but let's hope that whatever plans he has for Iran go a lot more...smoothly. And since there are going to be a lot more countries backing them, hopefully it will go smoothly for all of them.

I believe Bush should take our troops out of Iraq. I think he thinks we are the "big brother" of everyone.

Sorry WITCH but just pulling all troops out now would be a really dumb thing to do. I hear peace activists talk about this all the time, doing what you mentioned and it seems that they don't know the condition of Iraq.
If they pulled out, Iraq would fall into the hands of Al-Qaeda and everything that happened, every soldier who died, would have died in vain.

So basically, we're damned if we do, and we're damned if we don't. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you so damn much.

And, unfortunately, I did not get the hamburger recipe--I saw the clip of them talking about it on the Daily Show, which, sadly, is the only "news" show that consistently gives actual news, albeit hilariously.

I don't think it's a 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' scenario, myself. I think that Iraq may be able to pull itself together. Who knows. Who knows how we'll look on this 10-20 years ago
