Take a hard look at Iraq and see how much better it really is for the women of Iraq especially in the areas controlled by Sadr.
Yeah that sucks. ... ( 3 weeks ago by swansandtyphus)
Yeah that sucks. But the Iraqi Army have fought and defeated Sadr's Mahdi Army but Sadr still has a lot of influence. Women's rights were better under Saddam Hussein but his rule was enforced by state terror and genocide against his own people. Naturally now he is gone, Islamic extremists and tribal politicians reacted against women. But democracy has taken root and women have the right to vote and women politicians are in office and Sadr will face stiff opposition.
Iraq has better chance now.
His words still ... ( 3 weeks ago by mike45014)
His words still live on through those of us who actually love and respect that little piece of paper called the constitution. But can you even imagine if he were the President today how better off we would be right now. I mean really I bet you can read that off to Bush and he'd think it was ancient egyptian and not Lincoln. Obama is the only man for the job he still thinks like Lincoln thought back then. Obama 08

Well said! I keep ... ( 2 weeks ago by gorgorybmus)
Well said! I keep finding instances where people are talking about bringing Democracy to Iraq and how it's so important... I'm beside myself with confusion because I didn't realize that so many Americans have relatives and such a fervent passion about a desert country in the Middle East. It makes no sense... unless, it's just a topic that is infused with their chosen ideology and thus they will support it. Honestly, what is the root purpose for Democracy in Iraq? Is it the Persian Gulf???
At the time the ... ( 2 weeks ago by thetruthone)
At the time the republicans were the progressive party, that's true. So what? I don't cheer for a political party like I cheer for a sports team regardless of their performance. If you notice, at some point there was a role reversal. Notice the southerners don't exactly vote democrat anymore. here's one of my favorite lincoln quotes...
"My earlier views ... ( 2 weeks ago by thetruthone)
"My earlier views of the unsoundness of the Christian scheme of salvation and the human origin of the scriptures have become clearer and stronger with advancing years, and I see no reason for thinking I shall ever change them." Lincoln in a letter to Judge J.S. Wakefield, after the death of Willie Lincoln
American power. A ... ( 2 weeks ago by swansandtyphus)
American power. A democracy in Iraq will naturally seek American support and assistance. An autocratic government in Iraq would be more likely to seek the support of an autocratic China or Russia cutting the US out of the show.
If the Americans can project democracy to any corner of the globe it can it shuts the door on Chinese or Russian influence.

There you have it-Obama admits that President Bush got UN aprroval and resolutions -which saddam continuely broke. Bush did not "go it alone" as some rogue "imperialist" but went thru exhaustive measures.

Barack Obama is a breath of fresh air to politics. I'm 18 from the UK and not much of a political intaker, especially after 8 years of moronic Bush.
Obama is a geuinuely smart, rational, articulate guy. Glad he won. Mcain is a turd.

McCain was an idiot ... ( 1 week ago by Trollmaster21)
McCain was an idiot to say Obama was wrong on Iraq. Everything Obama said about the war: not giving the president the sole power for a preemptive invasion, and the post planing was proven correct where McCain was way off the mark saying we'd be greeted as liberators. And I'm glad he beat out Hillary because she fell for Bush's war herself.
Yeah.. I dont think ... ( 4 days ago by snake85eye)
Yeah.. I dont think Obama knows what hes doing... Giving Obama the steering wheel to the country is equivalent to asking Rain Man whos on first... I mean we just wont get anywhere...
Hey why dont you ... ( 4 days ago by snake85eye)
Hey why dont you worry about chilling your beer you weirdos... How do you drink it warm?
Also worry about your own country, shut the hell up little kid... Bush was one of the best presidents to walk the face of the earth... Atleast he had some balls... UK, has such a lame military by the way.. They are the worste I have ever served with.. The australians are not much better.. No wonder why you guys cant win a war or even fight... Bunch of pussies
That comment is so ... ( 3 days ago by magicbibledotcom)
That comment is so retarded it barely deserves a fucking response, but I'll pander to you for the sake of your fragile little brain. First off, British Intelligence is the driving force of most military output you dumb cunt. Secondly Bush is a fucking moron, I don't even need to justify that, he just is. The fact that you think he's one of the best presidents ever... Well, that's just beyond belief. You're a complete cock.

Gorge Bush jr, Tony Blair, Adnaan then spanish Prime minister all must have got a big retirement plan from Iraq war, possiblities are threre. Must order an enquiery once Barrak is in office.
Array ( 4 hours ago by Zetenderhoof)
To snake85eye,
You're a one dumb mofo. So basically you're saying since we have such a great military, why don't we "have some balls" and throw people around a little. Wow, just wow. Look what happen mofo? There were no WoMDs. Had Bush has half the brain capacity of a guy like Obama, we wouldn't be in this shit
hole that you people called "Iraqi Freedom" (which ironically killed hell of a lot more innocent people than Sadamm on his worst days. You're a a hopeless, useless tool. GG.
