Do you favor cutting the funding for the Iraq war

[opebo]

Yes, of course.  By the way, those who type (sane) behind their answer are violating the 'no personal attacks' policy.

You love me.

Really?  You're a bit nondescript to inspire such a profound emotion, particularly in one as jaded as I. 

All the best..

Yes, of course


Just like my liberal friends, I favor cutting funding immediatly, stranding all of our troops over there to fight for themselves.  I'm sure some of them will make it back alive.  Who cares about building Democracy anyway.  We should have cut the funding right after WWII to all the European countreis that we were mothering.  Who cares about the fact that we were fighting ex-Nazis and pro-Stalin factions in those countries for years after the war ended.  It couldn't have happened anyway, cause it wasn't widely reported.  We all know that something is only happening if the media get hysterical about it.

The problem with your WWII analogy is that the Nazis in this case are us.

David S. I think you are making a huge mistake and one that many liberals make in trying to make 9/11 the reason we went into Iraq. The reason we went into Iraq is because they had WMD and refused to comply with UN inspectors, on top of that situation Iraq was in continual violation of the 1991 ceasefire agreement. Violation of a ceasefire is of course a valid reason to resume hostilities against a nation.

But they did not have 'WMDs', not that I see any reason we should care if they did.  Similarly, why should americans care if they were 'violating the cease fire agreement'?  The agreement was unreasonable, obviously, and imposed by a previous american agression which should not have taken place.

Yep, sure is, but you have to remember. Populism created Hitler and Mr OMG GOP=DA TERROISTS is pretty mucy a populist himself.

Actually Hitler was a traditional rightist like GW Bush or any of the modern Republicans.
