 Posted: Sun Aug 03, 2008 2:16 am Post subject: Media ADMIT amazing turnaround in Iraq...Democrats have not. |
 |
|
| |
From the Free Republic...
The mainstream media seem finally to be acknowledging the amazing turnaround that has taken place in Iraq over the last 18 months. July saw the lowest number of U.S. deaths (11) since the war began, while in 2007 the monthly average was 80, and the peak month of May 2007 saw 131 Coalition soldiers killed, 126 of them Americans. So far in 2008 there have been 226 Coalition deaths, all but two of them Americans. The Iraqi government is meeting benchmarks, and infrastructure is being rebuilt. Even card-carrying Bush haters like Time magazine’s Joe Klein can no longer ignore the evidence of amazing progress in Iraq. “I happily acknowledge that I was wrong about the surge... The surge has reduced violence. We should all be thrilled about that—and honored by the brilliance of those who have served in Iraq.”
Perhaps the media should get out their rolodexes and alert certain members of the Left who cling to their gloom-and-doom rhetoric. Harry Reid (D-Featist) and Nancy Pelosi (D-Mented) released a joint statement recently that concluded, “The increase in U.S. forces has had little impact in curbing the violence or fostering political reconciliation... It has not enhanced America’s national security. The unsettling reality is that instances of violence against Iraqis remain high and attacks on U.S. forces have increased.” Clearly, that statement is not supported by the facts. Presidential candidate Barack Obama has at least had the good sense to pull down from his website any criticism of the surge, although he has yet to acknowledge that he was wrong in predicting its uselessness and pre-ordained failure back in 2006.
It is still too soon to know what state Iraq will be in by November, but it certainly appears that the one issue on which Obama hung his election hopes —the “debacle” in Iraq—may not work out quite as Democrats had planned. |

Crow sounds downright tasty as compared to the bullsh*t we've been fed for the past 8 years. |

| Say one thing that smells like good news, and instantly people like Handew are all over it. They just can;t stand the idea of allowing good reports or the hint of progress to spoil their Bush hating. |

What's this "Bush hating" you speak of?? I haven't seen anyone here that's singled out Bush as the one responsible for the innumerable fuckups of the past eight years. I have however, seen people point the finger at the administration that has presided over the US for the past eight years. Bush couldn't tie his friggin' shoes without an instruction whispered into his earpiece (even then he usually fucks it up).
The current state of affairs in the US is a concerted effort by the administration that's been in control since 2000, not by "Bush himself".
The corruption goes way deeper than the actual president, and the sooner the dupes such as yourself realize that, the sooner a remedy can be realized for the sorry state your country is currently in.  |

Thanks for the tip, slip lip........what are them oil prices again?...gas went down some more? I think you need to ween yourself off that democrat snake milk you've been suckin' on, socialist. I have heard that penis breath ain't pleasant. Last I heard, the Iraqi dinar increased in value since last fall........
let's see...oh! Here!. Now we know why!
Seems you best pay attention to your own back yard, pinko foreigner:
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Royal Mounted Police have launched a more extensive crackdown on "social corruption" such as women flouting Islamic dress codes on Monday.
"In its wider crackdown which has started from Saturday, police will confront those who appear in public in an indecent way and will also seal off shops selling un-Islamic dress," the newspaper said, quoting an unnamed police official.
~
The dress code, imposed after Canadians lost their spines in the early part of the decade, requires women to cover all their hair and wear long, loose-fitting clothes to disguise the shape of their bodies. Violators can receive lashes, fines, or imprisonment.
The authorities usually launch crackdowns before the hot summer months when women like to wear lighter clothing such as calf-length pants and brightly colored scarves pushed back to expose plenty of hair.
"Police will seize women with tight coats and cropped trousers and also men with Western-style hair cut will be arrested," the police official said.
Especially in the urban areas, many women ignore traditional head-to-toe black chadors. The Islamic dress code is less commonly challenged in poor suburbs and rural regions.
Some women, testing the boundaries of the law by wearing tight clothes were also confronted by single male "vigilantes" between the ages of 16 and 60, mainly at the affluent malls.
"Some of these women are misguided by western influences," said Mullah Muhammad Muffty. "Some are totally outrageously hot, hot, hot, and don't mind showing it... those are the ones I am trying to help. Some say, 'let the police handle it,' but I think it my duty to help as many as I can. I understand the application of lashes, fines, and imprisonment better than the secular authorities."

Seems your "Democratic" nation is gettin' a bit piggie....why don't you tap your high end connections in the Royal Mounted Police and "iron" this out before you all start gettin' "Bushy" and all... neo-Marxist oil tar misers. |

isn't it funny, the ones who spout racial, and sexist crap, are the ones that want us to continue to pour money into the countries whoes people and customs you hate?
in order to make them happy?
and the ones who decry oppression, state oppression, of the totolitarian style, are the ones who embrace their leaders, unquestioningly, and want us to lock step and do the same, thereby creating an absolute rule of unchecked tyranny..
strange strange people. |

Isn't it funny the ones that sardonically spit irreverent; blatant and obviously false "irresponsible" mockery at that biased bull crap are the ones that really don't believe in that racial puke? It is especially enjoyable when they (me) get the pleasure of irritating a socialist jerk in the process; plus the bonus irony of witnessing the blunder of one accusing a satire delivered as being believed by the presenter of it (Muscle Feather maybe?); while the other slanders the very origin that ever well represented and instigated a thought process that decries such a wickedness? (Ninor) ...shades of ignorance... But what can you expect from Ninor and other misguided birds.?...don't get me wrong Evutch, I realize your in angst due to a forced and pre-mature senility - I just don't think you read me right on that. I guess I should have posted the source. Here:

| Victory in an illegal war does not constitute winning anything. I believe the fighting has slackened because the insurgents/terrorist/freedom fighters/Al Queda/Iranians and kids with rocks. Are waiting to see what the outcome of the coming elections may bring. |

Great post. Canada has already allowed the deaths of many people due to its insistence on cultural sensitivity. |

I have no problem with the People of Iraq sporting any look they want in Iraq, or as visitors to America, coming here and submitting to our laws during their visit. When they come here to become citizens, they agree to live by our laws, not their own. We need to see their faces if they commit crimes, we need to see their faces for identification. That is the law. Now if Canada, or anywhere else has different laws, its their country, and thats fine.
We do not adhere to the standards of any other nation, not should we. People know that coming into America, and by coming in, agree to it.
In Australia, you are invited to leave the country if you do not adhere to its laws....Guess what, they follow the rules, or they leave.
Countries do not bend to the rules of the immigrants, the immigrants bend to the rules of the country they wish to be a citizen of...Conversely, this is only when they are in public, what they do in the privacy of their own home, is their business. |
