Reply #31: Funny (not) that... [View All]

...wingnuts never mention that (according to the State Department and CIA) terrorism is at record level worldwide and that there are now thousands of more jihadists than there were since we invaded Iraq.

And the price on freedom? Well, around the time of "Mission Accomplished", we were assured that our troops levels in Iraq would be down to 30,000 by July, 2003...by none other than Rummy and Wolfowitz. Oh, and that Shrubya himself said that the reconstruction of Iraq would be paid for by Iraqi oil revenues. The National Guard has never been used in this fashion in our history.

Oil-for-food? I notice they never mention that several US corporations have been implicated in that...well, implicated may be too strong a word because after all, the allegations are all from Chalabi...do they remember him? Our main source of information for WMD's.

Our deficits were obviously increased by events following 9/11...but they seem to ignore that, besides the first ever tax cuts during a war in history (of the world, not just the US), discretionary spending under Shrub (that's excluding the war's and Homeland Security) increased more than under any president in over 50 years.

Unemployment is NOT dropping and the jobs created pay considerably less than those lost.

Privatization? I wish one of these "morans" could explain where the $2 TRILLION to do it will come from.

And yes, they're right about healthcare. We can all go to the ER and not be turned away. But wouldn't preventative medicine be nice? Both in a human sense and in a cost-effective way?

Idiots. They don't bother with facts because they only show how wrong they are on every count.
