The Iraq War is now five (5) years old. John McCain and VP Chaney are there visiting while we speak. Both are claiming that the war is a success and progress is being made and I say bullshit to all of that.
Chaney is there to urge the government to go a little faster in taking over operations in the country but we all know that this is an impossibility since there are three (3) factions in Iraq that will not agree to a united government or even sharing power in one government.
McCain keeps harping on the fact that al-Qaeda will follow us home if we leave Iraq. That is so stupid it isn’t funny anymore. Al-Qaeda is in Iraq because we invaded Iraq; they were not in Iraq when Hussein was in charge; Bush allowed al-Qaeda to become a force in Iraq and this point must be hammered over and over again to emphasize over and over again that Bush & Chaney fucked up big time and need to pay for their mistake!
Leave Iraq and let the chips fall where they fall. We have already wasted 4,000 American lives there; how many more are we willing to sacrifice for a never ending war; at least if we allow one side to win, we will have an end to this debacle.
Bush does not want to divide Iraq like many have urged as the only realistic solution so someone else will need to step in and do what is right. This will not be McCain and so I am waiting to hear what Obama and Hillary will propose.
The Iraq War needs to become an issue again and American voters need to listen to each candidate’s plan for Iraq and vote accordingly. We need the money being spent on Iraq here at home.
If you haven’t noticed, our economy is taking a direct hit and will worsen a lot before it starts getting better. Billions going over to Iraq on a regular basis with nothing to show for those billions must stop as soon as possible – we cannot buy peace!
