We didn't start up the draft. Should Bush take the heat for that? It
never should have been closed.
Now our volunteer troops are tired and we have no replacements and no
program to alleviate the problem.

The American majority if polls are correct want to bring the troops home.
That will happen and Americans wont forget about Osama or Al Qaeda
because they still have their basic goal which is to kill Americans.

So, who do you want to blame for what?

When the Qaeda kills again in America who will you blame ?

You worry about Osama now? And assignment of blame won't help the coming
carnage one bit now will it?
The American citizens who want the troops home NOW will wonder if that
was such a good idea.
And what about planning for tomorrows military needs. You hear Nancy
Pelosi urging the start up of military draft?
Are we letting contracts for military needs in a build up?

When al Qaida kills in Iraq (3,640 to date) I've no problem figuring out
who to blame.

There WAS no al Qaida in Iraq before the dubya commenced his ill-advised
adventure.

So the draft is the problem? Explain. King George has been trying to put a
bandaid on a bad plan in Iraq for several years now. Perhaps a better plan at
the beginning would have made more sense than Shock and Awe? But that's not the
subject of this thread. His failure on the bin Laden strategy is. Can you admit
it, Schmiddy?

>

>because they still have their basic goal which is to kill Americans.

Apparantly King George has forgotten bin Laden. He even said once that bin Laden
wasn't a priority. But still crickets from you Righturds. So do the American
people know more than the King? Hint: Rhetorical question.

>So, who do you want to blame for what?

Here, Schmiddy, for the politically impaired. I'll go slowly. Bush admits
failure in his strategy on bin Laden. The Righturds have blamed Clinton for his
failure on the bin Laden policy. Will the Righturds step up to the plate and be
balanced?

>When the Qaeda kills again in America who will you blame ?

Bush of course. The 911 attack happened during his administration. He attacked
Afghanistan as a harborer of Al Qaeda and bin Laden. Through poor planning, bin
Laden escaped into Pakistan. Bush turned his attention to Iraq and decided to
not rock the boat with Pakistan and treat them as an ally, even though there is
overwhelming evidence that they too are harboring terrorists from the Al Qaeda
organization, including perhaps bin Laden. Who would you blame for this serious
mistake? Bush admits failure.

>You worry about Osama now? And assignment of blame won't help the coming
>carnage one bit now will it?

The assigment of blame to Clinton falls also in that category, doesn't it? What
ultimately does blame accomplish? But someone should be answerable for the
failures thus far of this administration to eliminate bin Laden and his infinite
monetary funding of Al Qaeda. That someone is the man at the top. Virtually
everyone else has been replaced along the way with little or no results.

>The American citizens who want the troops home NOW will wonder if that
>was such a good idea.

It is a great idea. They never should have been in Iraq in the first place. If
the money spent making that the catastrophe it has become had only been spent on
finding and eliminating bin Laden and the funding for the greater part of Al
Qaeda, Iraq could have been better planned as a follow up. The Righturds rant
about quitting a strategy in the middle, well it has already been done, by King
George. Quitting on the hunt for bin Laden has proven a grave error. Rather than
turning our heads toward Iraq, we should have followed bin Laden right into
Pakistan and got the job done. The quitting has alread happened, Scmiddy. The
Dems understand this and are trying to first cut the losses in Iraq and then
focus on what should have been the strategy in the first place. Eliminating the
cash cow from Al Qaeda.

>And what about planning for tomorrows military needs. You hear Nancy
>Pelosi urging the start up of military draft?

Do you hear anyone doing such, partisan politics aside? Nope. The catastrophe in
Iraq has soured the youths who might have stepped forward to serve their
country. What do you want to bet the enlistment numbers would have been had the
US continued to root out bin Laden in Pakistan instead of lying about WOMD and
how powerful Hussein had become during the middle of an act of war by Al Qaeda?

>Are we letting contracts for military needs in a build up?

Opening contracts to bidding would also be a start here. Giving no bid contracts
to inside companies just has served to pad the pockets of those in this
administration. America was built on competition. If that is taken away, expect
more than a crash.

Nothing at all. the Baath Party was not al Qaeda. If anything, al

We did.

At that point, we shoulda gone home and let Them have their

We need to eliminate Qaeda but Nancy doesn't agree so if we leave we did
nothing worthwhile other than putting Saddam down and proving that Qaeda
has a greater resolve than we do. And they won't leave us alone either.

I'm pretty sure that not all of those are al Qaida's responsibility.
Actually, I'm pretty sure the vast majority are the responsiblity of
leftover Sunnis and Iran Shia terrorists.

For the record, you think it's a bad idea of for al Quida, who
previously languished in Pakistan, Syria and Saudi Arabia, to go to
Iraq to die?

The Baathist party was a group of genuine nasties.

It also posed no threat at all to the United States or United States'
national interests.

Well, we certainly did that. That made things ever so much better, eh?

1441 in no way authorized anyone to "put his reign down".

The dubya just decided to do that pretty much by his lonesome. Just one
in a series of blunders.

Incidently, ya' don't hear much 'bout the Coalition of the Willing as of

Having some trouble keeping the players apart?

There was no al Qaeda within Iraq until sometime in 2004, when a
previous group renamed itself al Qaeda In Iraq and asserted that it
had form a Very informal relationship with ObL.

You certainly do Hear about al Qaeda all over the place, but that's
just something the administration spokesdroids do to try to play on
your ongoing gullibility and convince you that al Qaeda In Iraq is the
same group as the al Qaeda of ObL in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

It is not.

>We need to eliminate Qaeda

Indeed -- and had we remained in Afghanistan to do a better job and
perhaps even finish it properly, we might well have done that.

But Dubya's ADD problem got us over into Iraq, where the was no al
Qaeda at the time, and wouldn't be for several years.

>... but Nancy doesn't agree

Pelosi has always been reasonably supportive of the Afghanistan
mission, even from the start. Maybe not as gung-ho as you might have
preferred, but certainly never got all het up about it.

Again -- keep the original al Qaeda separate from the later-formed
group al Qaeda In Iraq. Those are Not the same groups, and the latter
is a formal title, not just a descriptor.

>... so if we leave we did

>nothing worthwhile other than putting Saddam down

Which was, if you recall, the initial mission. That part was always
going to be essentially a walkover. The world's only hyperpower plus
two second-rate powers and a hired class of several thousand was
Always going to knock over a military that is no better than third,
and arguably fourth class at the time.

>... and proving that Qaeda has a greater resolve than we do.

I suspect you've bought Far too much into the administration's
assertion that we are mostly fighting al Qaeda.

We re not.

>... And they won't leave us alone either.

They were never going to, Iraq or no Iraq. But for a while there in
Afghanistan, we could and came Very close to taking them down entirely
and destroying their organization Before we decided to train them in
asymmetric warfare in Iraq.

That part was always Dubya's decision to take. It was and remains
dubya's war entirely.

Another outcome which can be largely laid at the feet of the dubya
regime and its band of merry Rovers.

We had al Qaeda very much on the ropes in Tora Bora - 'til the dubya
took his eye off the ball and decided to withdraw the special forces for
his Iraq invasion rather than using them to polish off what remained of
al Qaeda and the Taliban.

> We need to eliminate Qaeda but Nancy doesn't agree so if we leave we did
> nothing worthwhile other than putting Saddam down and proving that Qaeda
> has a greater resolve than we do.

Resolve to persist in a failed strategy is not resolve, it is stupidity.

Which is more or less what we've come to expect from the dubya regime.

And they won't leave us alone either.

Perhaps. But invading and occupying Iraq did nothing to lessen that
probability. Indeed, it only increased it.

I mean, the "we're fighting 'em there so we won't have to fight 'em
here" approach didn't seem to be work all that well for the Brits. Or
the Spainiard's either, for that matter.

There's no reason to think the results will ultimately prove better for
us. And, in the meantime, we've plunked 150,000 americans down in a
place where they don't speak the language, don't know the culture, 30%
of the population hates 'em, and three or four a day are getting blown
up by IEDs.

Withdrawing from Iraq won't make 'em leave us alone. But it'll mean a
hundred or so Americans aren't getting blown to smithereens every four
weeks or so.

Peace and justice,

That isn't realistic. However, we do know that Iranians, Syrians,

Nope. We had all Sorts of personnel to deploy to Afghanistan. Then.

Depends on whom you ask. Dubya doesn't have one. He can just snap
his fingers and deploy troops in any strength he requires, and then
keep them there longer than he said they would be there.

That the real al Qaeda is different from the al Qaeda In Iraq. The
latter poses no real threat to the US at all from Iraq. The real al
Qaeda is still out there, just not where we are trying to do the
fighting.

Do you understand that al Qaeda in Iraq is primarily composed of foreigners
who will eventually be killed by Iraqis (assuming we leave) or go home?
Where do you suppose they came from? What do you suppose they will do when
they get home? Can you Define "the real al Qaeda"?

Caring about Israel and Caring about the US National Interests are two
different things, seems to me.

Israel is a nuclear power. It means to be.

Are we in Iraq because we Care about Israel?

>You think we are stupid or are you a troll?
>http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/03/31/intel.report/index.html

Heh! And you put credence in such nonsense!

Yes -- I think you are stupid. Stupid enough to believe Dubya when he
says that the Failure was not His and his administration's. Oh no --
it was Their failure -- the CIA's et al.

And Tenet got the Medal of Freedom from him.

Go figure.

Now -- here's the Inside Scoop, from things like the Iraq Study Group
and the post-invasion search for the WMDs (which had twenty times the
personnel the UN inspectors had, a lot longer, untrammeled acces to
All Iraqi Personnel not to mention the $25 Million reward for someone
who could lead us to Even One Actual WMD -- even a little one.)

It was, all of it, Dead Wrong.

Every.Single.Bit.

Requoting stuff endlessly, suggesting that Maybe it went to Syria or
some other fanciful destination -- All of that. Dead Wrong.

Right across the board.

We had No Actual Evidence that Iraq had Any WMDs during the runup to
the war.

We had and still have No Actual Evidence that WMDs were transported
anywhere else.

(The Iraqi National Congress, controlled by Wolfowitz;s good friend
and confidante Ahmed Chalabi doesn't count. Chalabi said, after the
war, that it really didn't matter if his Paid Informers told the truth
or not. His objective was to get the US to attack Iraq, so that later
he could take power. Now he's a good friend of Iran.)

Even poor ol' Collin Powell has likewise recanted his UNSC speech.

It's you Wingnuts who don't twig to what really happened.

It doesn't seem to be the case that there are any nutria in Iraq.

OTOH, the basic skills to dispatch nutria have a lot of applications.

However -- I'm not going. They aren't going to ask.

Yep. Doesn't effect everyone but it will do the job. Only thing I ever

Legal Status
In Oregon, nutria are classified as unprotected Nongame Wildlife (OAR
635-044-0132). As unprotected wildlife nutria may be trapped (cannot be
relocated) or shot. No license is needed for a landowner to control
nutria on his/her own property. Most cities have restrictions on
leg-hold trapping or the discharge of firearms within their city
limits--live trapping is usually the main population control measure
inside the city limits.

You really are ignorant, and believe that a Negative can be proven.

It was Our burden to prove that there were WMDs during the runup to
the war. We never had One Piece of Actual Evidence to confirm that
there were.

Not.Even.One.

We had interpretations and satellite photos and paid informants from
the Iraqi National Congress and all the prognostications of the
Chickenhawks in the administration, right up to and including Dubya
himself.

Hence, We will defeat Saddam "and take his weapons of mass destruction
from him."

He didn't have any to take.

Not.even.one.

Not even just a Little one.

You caught precisely Nothing of the sort.

There was never any Actual Evidence in our hands that there were WMDs
in Iraq during the runup to the war.

We had guesses, hopes, surmises, predictions, possibilities -- the
whole megillah.

Just no Actual Evidence.

It was, all of it, Dead Wrong.

The ones bullshitting were the Chickenhawks in the administration.
The gullible were those who believed it at the time.

I did, because it wasn't Actual Evidence at the time. There were
those even in the administration who knew that it wasn't, including
those within the various sorts of intelligence agencies.

They were told to sit still, shut up and go with the Party Line.

Those who voiced the Least bit of reticence about all the WMD Promises
found themselves in early retirement.

Didn't change anything, though, did it? Who ended up correct and who
did not?

Stupid enough to fool yourself into believing that such a thing
actually happened on your watch, additionally.

How did all that Actual Evidence work out? Did we find all those WMDs
in their thousands of rounds and hundreds of tons, loaded and ready to
fire within 45 minutes? Did we find those missiles with the
prohibited range? Did we find those pilotless aircraft drones that
could threaten the US? Did we find those Weapons Trailers that poor
ol' Powell talked so convincingly about in front of the UNSC?

Where were they?

Actually there was a lot of evidence that they didn't have WMD's. There
were a couple of hundred UN inspectors on the ground providing it.

More evidence in fact that they didn't have WMD's than any evidence that YOU
don't have WMD's.

Ya' gotta wonder if Smith even reads the shit he posts.

In point of fact, the referenced URL
(http://www.dfw.state.or.us/springfield/Nutria.html) sez:

"Legal Status
In Oregon, nutria are classified as unprotected Nongame Wildlife (OAR
635-044-0132). As unprotected wildlife nutria may be trapped (cannot be
relocated) or shot. No license is needed for a landowner to control
nutria on his/her own property."

"AS UNPROTECTED WILDLIFE NUTRIA MAY BE ... SHOT."

Which would be the exact antithesis to Smith's claim that it is "illegal
in Oregon to shoot them".

Sigh! So many idiots, so little time.

But during the runup to the war, as Don said, there was no actual
evidence that Hussein had such weapons.

[..]

Since the resumption of inspection a little over three months ago, and
particularly during the three weeks since my last ordered report to the
council, the IAEA has made important progress in identifying what
nuclear-related capabilities remain in Iraq and in its assessment of
whether Iraq has made any effort to revive its past nuclear program
during the intervening four years since inspections were brought to a
halt.

At this stage, the following can be stated:

One, there is no indication of resumed nuclear activities in those
buildings that were identified through the use of satellite imagery as
being reconstructed or newly erected since 1998, nor any indication of
nuclear-related prohibited activities at any inspected sites.
Second, there is no indication that Iraq has attempted to import uranium
since 1990.

Three, there is no indication that Iraq has attempted to import aluminum
tubes for use in centrifuge enrichment. Moreover, even had Iraq pursued
such a plan, it would have encountered practical difficulties in
manufacturing centrifuge out of the aluminum tubes in question.

Fourth, although we are still reviewing issues related to magnets and
magnet-production, there is no indication to date that Iraq imported
magnets for use in centrifuge enrichment program.

Do not argue with these ass holes. They want you to prove a negative.
They hope that finally under some long overlooked road side rock a WMD
will be found. It wont, but it is all they have to hope for.

One thing for sure, I'm having more fun than you are you old sourpuss.
You should smile up and go for a walk.

Helmet face shields are quite effective in preventing that particular
hazard.

Not riding a Harley chopper, I feel no need to score style points by
going forth protected only by a "beanie" helmet and sun glasses.

And just nobody can be a sourpuss while straddling a motorbike. They're
too damn much fun.

A bit more oomph than that. Though not a Harley or Hayabusa either.

Though I wouldn't mind getting one of those Cushmans - they're currently
selling for eight grand and up.

I'd sell it off on ebay and and and use the profits pick up a brand new
Honda 919 or Shadow.

(decisions, decisions - sport bike or cruiser?)

No one does IKYABWAI better than you, Shmoopie.

I mean, shit -- there are people like Al who are misinformed and hang onto
their ignorance like grim death, but still can perhaps be talked to like
adults, even misinformed as they are.

But then there are people like you and Smit-head, who for some reason really
have small children's senses of adult discussion. No attention to
knowledge, logic, decorum, or even some small ability to recognize shame --
just pure desire for attention from those you consider your betters.

Holy shit, WTF happened to you?
