CNN reports that journalist Seymour Hersh, who broke the story of Abu Ghraib and who has a sterling reputation for integrity and good reporting, said that the US, not content with its magnificent and conclusive victory in Iraq, is planning for war with Iran.
Despite my respect for Hersh, I can’t credit that the Pubs would be insane enough to contemplate opening a third front when we don’t have enough troops or supplies for the wars we have going on now.
Please tell me he’s making this up. Please, please please.
Not that stupid. Not that stupid. Not that stupid. No way, that stupid. Not a chance. Unh-uh. Nope. Absitivlely, posolutely not that stupid. So that’s settled. Not that stupid.
Makes reinstating the draft at least a bit more likely doesn’t it? Especially since it’s an administration that doesn’t have to worry about re-election.
Is it even possible for us to invade another country without a draft? Have there been any independant studies or analyses of our military strength that showed we have enough manpower for yet another invasion?
Yeah, I can remember everyone saying that leading up to Iraq. Sorry, but there’s nothing that’s “too stupid” for these idiots. Of course, they’re comfortable making these decisions because they’re not the ones that will suffer in the reprisals. They’ve got bunkers and bodygaurds. It’ll just be the disposable hoi polloi that get killed in the bombings.
No way. Not that stupid. See, your problem is you still live in Texas, this makes you pessimistic, I live in Minnesota. You say the glass is half-empty, a Minnesotan will politely point out that you wasted your money, buying a glass twice as big as you needed. See, its all a matter of perspective
I doubt it. I have a good friend that is a really sweet guy, but still honestly believes W has never, ever ever gone back on one of his promises or lied, and anything you show him to the contrary just won’t even budge him or get the slightest concession. They can rationalize anything, I swear.
I don’t care who you support, unquestionably loyalty even in the face of evidence to the contrary to anyone is just dumb.
