War is not a board game. Real people have given up their lives to keep America safe and the ideal that we can establish a democracy in the mifddle east. How can you say it's a disaster when we're breaking new ground here? We're fighting the terrorists on their turf, not ours, and that is to be desired.

Well stated Lefty,
There is nothing simple about the struggle to protect Freedom.

Just voted for disaster, as everyone knew I would. I hope everyone on this board votes. Maybe ljb, Sec, and I and some others, are NOT the only ones.

Tom, Lefty and other lemmings-you may only vote ONCE. Jr, Pa--- no fancy computer
shennanigans.



sq764 thank you.

hcap, Yes, I knew you would because you don't know any better. I always vote only once because i'm not a Democrat.

A bit surprised..

I thought we would have more votes for 'shoulda gone, but better plan' rather than a disaster..

Also surpirsed that anyone thought we were right where we should be....

All things considered, we're probably ahead of where we should be. In the midst of all the fighting we're building schools, hospitals, Iraquis keep opening businesses, we have vaccinnated children etc. War is not as simple as a board game and doesn't always go according to plan. Our brave troops and civilians too are to be congratulated.
Of course, not all media tells of our successes and dwell on the setbacks. Can you say biased?

Are you asking for a recount Lefty? btw..I only ever vote once. matter of fact I think its set up that way but we'd have to defer to PA on how these polls work.

sec, no. Read hcaps post. He said I could only vote once. A snide remark that insinuated i might vote more than once. He also mentioned others along with me. Then he called us lemmings but it's you guys finding every link you can imagine to bolster your way of thinking. So who's the lemming? Hmmmmm?
I reminded him that I am not a Democrat.
Recounts are for you crybaby dems.

Lefty,
I have read your posts here and you are really confused. Or perhaps you are one of them fellows that Bush has drinking paint.
Also I see in today's news the gubement is telling us there is a good chance of another terroist attack on the good ol USA this summer. They also say they have no spefics,, does this mean Bush goes fishing or does he just get in a round of golf?

lbj, I'm confused? I don't think so. THey may try, they may succeed, and that's why we need to stamp them out, isn't it? Do you think if Kerry was Pres the same facts about the terrorists wouldn't be in play? Except to take a shot at me, what's your point?

My answer depends on what day you ask.
LJB the LIB- I dislike libs because just like you, they think they know everybody's mind, and try to tell everybody how to act and what to think.
You are just paraniod and dictatorial in liberal clothing like Moore and the rest. The only thing liberal about you is your political egotism.

Lefty, I really was kidding about voting once. See the smilies? I am sure you can only vote once as Sec mentioned.

But so far the voting is rather suprising, wouldn't you say?
