The US government is now worse than the soviets were. The propaganda isn't even well thought out. It'sxd obvious that they don't know the truth anymore, since they've spun so many lies they can't even keep them straight in their own minds anymore.

Lie to cover up a lie...

what a sin this war has been, we won't 'win' anything but a guaranteed future of even more enraged muslim hordes looking to kill us. We need smarts in our leadership to battle their irrational faith. Interesting that Sheryl Crowe, despite her wacky suggestions-is dead on in promoting biofuels. If we did not need to import oil we could tell the middle east to beat it What a great day that would be! I think green awareness and fuel alternatives are as American in spirit as the tea party in Boston all those years ago.

As americans we are all such cowards and simpletons. We can't figure out that we need to flood Iraq with soldiers and overcome this challenge.

Are we all so scared and weak-minded that we run when we see adversity. It is appalling and disappointing, it seems like this country needs another Pearl Harbor or 9-11 before we will have resolve hardened.

Iraq was a mistake we all know that now, but how we handle our mistakes is what will define us as a country. I wish we had a politician who wasn't afraid to say this is how we will win the war in Iraq. Instead we are all pining away for a spineless leader who wants to cut and run. Focus on welfare, abortion and any other liberal pet issue.

Our country has steadily declined in our economic prowess and inventiveness since we lost Vietnam. I wonder how low we will sink after we lose Iraq because of all the spineless folks.

If we stopped buying middleast fuel their countries would become even poorer and their suppresive leaders would still blame the US.causing more Jihadist Islam is evil, pure and simple truth. It has give these repressed people someone to blame instead of their evil and unhuman religion that keeps them unstified with their human existance!

Leaving this war is not about being spineless. It's about realize we made a mistake and righting out wrongs. Are the Iraqi people honestly better off now than before? Are they actually 'free'?? They still live in fear of their lives and under the influence of a negative controlling force. If anyone is spineless, it is our leader for not being man enough to admit his mistake and his lies and right this wrong. Soldiers are dying every day for a war that the American public does not support and for a war that was started under false pretenses. How many years has it been since that banner read 'Mission Accomplished' and don't try to spin any bull about him not knowing about that. He's the president, I don't believe for a second he doesn't know what a sign behind him says.

Bottom line, we must find a way to get out of Iraq. Not only for our own good, but for the good of the Iraqi people. We have become enablers and are probably causing more violence in the country by our mere presence.

i was at fort bliss with ms. lynch she was a slut and as for tillman do you honestly think special forces shot thier own? the truth is is that in the army there is a saying that there is no such thing as friendly fire. my bet is that tillman showed his buddies he couldnt be trusted so they took actions. thats the truth of war if you have quarrels then join the army or work in politics and change it dont just sit around typing complaints on the internet. my bet is you are all stupid, media brainwashed minimum wage liberals.

I think it is time for the American people to stand up and say enough to Bush and Cheney and their illegal war. What has Bush done that was not a lie in the years that he has been in office.. I honestly believe that he is a disgrace to the office and I wish Congress had the nerve to stand behind the American people and do what they voted them in for.

Patriot, why do you call the Muslims faith irrational? Is it more so than Christian faith? The attitude that Islam is 'irrational' is one of the things that makes this war worse than it has to be: The Muslim community in the Middle East know that many 'Westerners' think Islam 'irrational' and many believe that the U.S. is fighting a war on Islam, not terrorism. To be fair I don't think that extremists should take it as far as they have (bombings etc.), but it is not as if they haven't been provoked. This war has made a mess that we will not be able to fix for decades, maybe longer, but the least we can do is not call shots against a faith that is given an extreme bad rap by its radicals and extremists that claim that is is the will of Allah/God.

File this under Bush's 'Mission Accomplished' Cheney's 'The insurgency is in its final throes' Condi's 'Why We Know Iraq Is Lying' Rumsfeld's 'We know Where the weapons of mass destruction are' Wolfowitz's 'The war will pay for itself.' Almost makes you want to pull your kids out of college and send them to work digging ditches. How could this seemingly well educated lot make so many mistakes and mistatements? Are we the people really this stupid or are Americans as a group delusional and easily led?
