"Our troops are getting killed for nothing and republicans are playing games"

Then why did only 3 vote for pulling the troops out?

great thread

CNN had a poll tonight. Over 90% of the people who voted wanted US to pull out of Iraq.
Really, WTF are we going to accomplish over there? It's a lost cause.

Because the Republican proposal was to pull them out "tomorrow".. The vote would have been different if it has been "pull them out over 6-9 months" as the Democrats have been talking about.... What's more interesting is that the Republicans put forward this proposal... but then none of them voted for it... it was just a stunt so they could use it in ads and the media down the road to continue to brainwash the intellectually challenged.

Kingy baby, post some more. You make me feel superior. And that has to be good.

The guy's an idiot but as an idiot he's still allowed freedom of speech.

KING TELL US ABOUT YOUR 12 REASONS WHY THE US WILL SUCCED OR WERE RIGHT TO INVADE.

You guys might as well play D&D. For all you know, everything that has been said on the matter is a lie.

Buy into life, not the fucking news.

Anyone who doesn't understand this but feels the need to open thier fucking mouth needs to kill them self expeditiously.

Dumb people need to stay the hell out of politics.

The GOP plays polotics with human lives, thats what this is about. They always have and they always will.

What dems have been making headlines with talk of an immediate withdrawal? Why are you posting lies?

oooooooo, yeh that was soooooooo tricky...

cha, like anyone would vote for that directly....

kneegrow please, that was just a lame attempt at throwing some hanging rope out there, a political stunt...

sounds like the Dem's said go fish

50 votes.

NO ONE CARESS

Who cares lol.

All they were trying to do was discredit John Murtha. This is a man who has been one of the great patriots of our time, and they knew when he came out and said lets get out, that they are in trouble. Murtha is a very conservative dem, and also a supporter of the military.

Once again, the republicans, instead of listening to the ideas of a smart and very brave man (2 purple hearts and a bronze star) chose to pull a political stunt. Murtha was asking for a phase withdraw in about 6 months.

Murtha has been visiting the army hospital every week and talking to the troops who have lost limbs and such. When was the last time one of the current administration has been to the hospital. Unless there are cameras, very few times.

Maybe that's because Murtha is a decorated veteran, and the Pres is a draft dodger, and the vp is a 5 time deferment. Who would you believe?

:1orglaugh

Thats the ticket. March into a place, fuck up the joint then move on to the next project. They can't pull out now, how will they whoop on Iran next without a quick-launch point?

Funny coming from someone using that word as a name.

I'm not a foreigner, I'm a fuckin American.

Everybody knows the vote thing was a political trick, and means nothing.

Unfortunately, I don't think we should just pull out, as attractive as the idea is.

We fucked up their country good and severe, and we owe them more help and protection that we've given them.

What we do need to do is impeach Bush.

Hippies will always be hippies.
