And if they put off the mop up effort long enough, they no doubt hope that either a miracle will occur, or a Democrat will be in office to take the blame. I doubt that they consider the death toll from stalling to even be an issue; after all, the people dying are commoners and foreigners; in their eyes, the people dying should be grateful they died to serve God’s Chosen Elite.
I was an army recruiter from 2001 to 2005. Yep, it sucked. Remember the scandals they had in recruiting back around spring 2005? Yeah, well, they asked for it, or Bush did by getting us into this BS. Bah, I won’t go into my various complaints on how Recruiting Command sucks ass, but I was seriously thinking of suicide or going AWOL in order to get out recruiting. Not that it mattered since my Blood Pressure was so high back then I’d probably have a stroke if I’d stayed.
One sure sign that the War has really affected recruiting is how they’ve lowered the standards for joining.
Hahahahahahahahahaha! My Ribs! :smack:
Thats the funniest shit I’ve heard all morning!
The comment reminds me of a Father Ted episode, in which 3 bishops visit Craggy Island to upgrade a Holy Relic.
At the end of the show, 1 bishop departs in a hippie van–dressed in “civvies” & toking on a reefer. (He’d lost his faith after a discussion with Father Dougal.)
The 2nd bishop goes out in a casket. (His weak heart gave out after a plumbing incident.)
The 3rd bishop limps out, in pain. (In a rage, Father Jack had inserted the Holy Relic “where the sun don’t shine.”)
Father Ted turns to Dougal & says “That went well.”
Then you’re gonna love this:
“What’s happened [in Iraq] is nothing short of a miracle.”
–Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK), Tulsa World, 8/22/06
Not “going well”. Not just “marching toward freedom”. A Goddamned miracle!!
Option? That’s the course, and we’re staying it, bay-bee!

“Stay the course!”
“We’ll just smash right through the Balkans, be in Moscow before the first snow falls!”
“A couple hundred Sioux and Cheyenne, tops. And we have the advantage of surprise!”
“You haven’t got the guts to shoot!”
“Hold my beer and watch this!”
Or to quote my grandpa “Don’t fire until you see the whites!”
-XT
“Bring 'em on!”

You’re either with us or against us. Dead or alive.
Stock up now on duct tape and plastic sheeting!
You ask…
And they deliver…
With less than a 24 hour turn-around.
Hey if all you wanted were a miracles, you should have asked sooner! They could have just sent Benny Hinn.
“I do”
I don’t think that word means what he thinks it means.
(bolding mine)
Wow, they misspelled “royal clusterfuck.” Some copy editor at the World obviously didn’t stay the course.
Stay the course!
Slay the horse!
Flay the corpse!
But not in midstream!
I saw the video and thought, “Well, you’d be the one who knows about huge mistakes, Mr. Bush.”
that’s it! there should have been a urine test for this whole debacle.
