Exit strategy? Sure there is. When we win, and when Iraq is fully
able to self govern. Blink blink...

So you *do* recognize that we have basically used up all
of our armed forces fighting this war. So that we're
hamstrung everywhere else in the world at this point
because of the tar baby.


Actually no..we have not used up all of our armed forces. And as long
as you on the Left and the media keep demonizing the war effort,
recruiting levels will remain low. And for that I blame you and your
ilk directly.

Exit strategy..hummm thats like announcing to the tangos that on Jan
1, we are going to pack up our toys and go home, no matter what.

Umm, no, an exit strategy means we have a plan for WINNING
the war. Or at least not losing too badly. If we have to
stay there "for generations" it sounds to me like we never
*did* learn anything from vietnam, that we never *did* realize
there is no way to win a war against a dedicated band of
entrenched fanatics.

Blink blink...I see your grasp of the situation and military history
in general is so flawed or non existant as to be moot. Tell you
what..read von Clauswitz, the works of Sun Tzu and the History of
Europe from 1400-1957, then get back to me after you have a better
grounding on the subject.

Hint, Iraq is now a virtual *magnet* for dedicated fanatics.

Excellent. Works like a Roach motel

And no, we can't kill them faster than they show up in the
country.

Sure we can. And have been doing exactly that.

Gods blood..that is one of the Dumbist things Ive every heard you
spew...exit strategy indeed.

Exit strategy means we've won the war and can go home. What
the hell is so dumb about that - aside from the fact that
our bumbling leaders can't seem to do it?

Again your terms are flawed. Words means something. Please educate
yourself and we shall discuss the finer points.

Gunner you are starting to sound like the NY state governor.

Whos that? I dont pay any attention to anything west of the
Mississipi. There be dragons.

He's a *real* big booster of the dweeb's war. Lotta support
given there. But when push comes to shove, Mr. Pataki kinda
comes up short. If he likes the war so much, then how come
george is doing all he can to see that his son (ROTC in the
marines) gets a three-year deferment to go to law school.

Three year deferment? Ah..there is no draft. Get real.

Basically if you like that war so much and think it's a
great idea, why not go and help win it yourself?

Jim

Jim, I checked with Blackwater, and a local recruiter. Im too old, to
dinged up and have a medical disability on my DD214 from the last war
I VOLUNTEERED for..both times. I also have 3 chevrons on the old
Purple ****up.

And your military history is what again?
