    Attack on US Embassy in Baghdad ....

    Well gee.... who do we blame for this one ? I was with the "guy" when he claimed we needed to pull out of the Middle East .... but... we're still there .

    The attack on the embassy... who do we blame ?.... where the hell is Hillary when you need her most ? { Lyman ... do to my latest infraction am I allowed to use the word hell ? }

    We went there due to the GOP ..... and we are still there due to the GOP .

    .... what say you Red ? ... or any of you

    I think Iran is getting the blame, but...probably Bush.

        Not to Monday morning quarterback, but Iraq was a colossal waste of lives, capital, and OUR resources for the foreseeable future.

            So Ted Kennedy and Cindy Sheehan were right?

              Ultimately, they may be? Cindy was no doubt traumatized by the loss of her son. If they were looking for an anti-recruiting tool in the Pentagon...they couldn't have done much better than the Iraq war.

              The real question, have the sacrifices made by our nation's youth, armed with our tax dollars, won the diplomatic victories envisioned by the Bush administration? We were told it was a liberation, not an occupation, in 2003. What is it today?

                  IIRC the neo-cons overruled the Intel people to plunge ahead.

                    Correct. UN Weapons Inspectors said it was all rubbish.

                    Toby Keith told us it was cool...so?
