A talking point for every single Democrat especially our Leaders
Never talk about the "Iraq War" always call it what it is "Iraq Occupation" or "Iraq invasion/occupasion" Never legitimize it by calling it a "War"..War make it glorious. It is not in any way "glorious". There is no "glory" in killing civilians. We are not fighting an army we are fighting civilians....

1. Good point
and it isn't a war-Congress is the only body that can declare war, and that hasn't happened since 1941.

2. Amen
What we have done is caused more instability in the middle east. The only way we can make it right is get out.

4. Iraq Occupation and Iraq Invasion is excellent. Every once in awhile -
Edited on Sat Dec-24-05 11:50 AM by higher class
for flavor - it can be called the Pea-Knack Plan or the Dick-Halli-KR Project or the Joint Corporate Agenda Item Number 1.

Feeling really bitter this morning. How much time will the WH Corporate Networks devote to soldiers who are dead or healing in Germany or Maryland or those who can't go out and throw the basketball with their kids or the ones why might crawl into a shell tomorrow.

How many words will be spoken by reverends tomorrow blasting non-born-agains and praising George and his right to do whatevr he wants.

Hypocrisy takes the joy out of the christian holiday. Makes you want to convert and just observe the waste of time and diversion tactics.

7. Our occupation of Iraq is destabilizing the Middle East.
Ah huh. I think that makes a certain sense. And we made a big mess of things.

8. makes sense..
but it's all part of the "war on terror"... :) Maybe we should call that a "war on the criminals that attacked us on 9/11"?? After all, it was not a country - it was a few individuals. Criminals.
