Petraeus Report

[DOGS THAT BARK]

--anybody else been watching--
I couldn't wait for Hiliary's turn--as was curious if she was going to question his honesty again-

Thought the Dems had one legitimate question and that being with Iraq showing 40 billion surplus from oil--they should be taking over more of the expense of rebuilding ect than they have.

--and seems we had three unanimous on timetables for withdrawels today--

Hiliary-Obama-- and al-Sadr
-

BAGHDAD ? Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr threatened Tuesday to lift a seven-month freeze on his militia if the Iraqi government does not halt attacks on his followers or set a timetable for a U.S. withdrawal.

Yup, it seems to me the terrorists want us spending our money there as long as possible. Not hard to figure out.

Legitimate question? That's an understatement. I sincerely hope that the initial comments and promises by this administration are revisited in earnest during the coming months, considering how supportive McCain is of indefinitely occupation. Not surprising, the good general has said that this war will now definitely be passed on to the next administration - we'll revisit the surge later, etc. Guessing in another month or so, legislators will be demanded to send more money to support the "cause." Maybe someday this President will own up to his own words and actually follow through with his promises on oil payments and the like...mj07: :mj07: :mj07: ). I figure that will have to wait until the Iraqi "government" makes sure the international oil interests obtain their contracts and start controlling the flow of oil for their investors, thanks directly to this administration. First things first, ya know.

As for the timetables idea, I commend and applaud the two democratic candidates. :00x15

At least two people in this race are answering the call of a majority of people in the country who are asking for the same scenario, instead of smirking at them and saying, "So?"
