The fall of post invasion Iraq

[Heywood]

I bet a lot of them don't. Saddam's regime brutalized, raped, tortured, and murdered thousands of Kurds, Shiites, political opponents, and everyone he was suspicious of. Saddam was a tyrant. I bet a lot of Iraqis would rather give their freedoms and their democratic government a chance to succeed....this was all predictable when Barack pulled out all American troops and left nothing by way of support. Barack's inexperience in foreign policy and his naive world view will create another terrorist state in Iraq and the Taliban will return to Afghanistan. The best thing Barack can do is resign from the presidency. He's the worse damn president since Jimmy Carter.

We would have to stay there forever. The place was doomed to fall apart as soon as we left, be it now or in twenty years. It was the inevitable result of the supreme Republican clusterfuck and what is happening right now is 100% Bush's responsibility. It wouldn't be happening now if he hadn't started the war in the first place.

Did you go over there and shed blood for the cause, or do you think that's just something other people are supposed to do for you?

We've had continual hostilities with Iraq since it invaded Kuwait in 1990. Bush did not start these hostilities. Sadaam Hussien did. Now you can blame Bush for escalating them...but our hostilities with Iraq started in 1990.
