Welcome to why you're a hypocrite. I understand enough. Big government is saving the sacred private sector from itself. I'm just wondering if you are against that? I remember you were complaining how the government was taking too much of your earnings on investments from taxes, yet here they are saving your investments. Funny how that works, eh?

John Adams Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Way back when, Bush said it would cost about 50-60 billion to remove Saddam and install a Democratic government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Way back when, Bush said it would cost about 50-60 billion to remove Saddam and install a Democratic government. It's like Pep Boys. They always get you on the installation charges. Not to mention they always seem to find different stuff that is broken once they get in the hood. Or charge you for stuff that didn't need fixing. This whole war is really like having car trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Way back when, Bush said it would cost about 50-60 billion to remove Saddam and install a Democratic government. Cost less than that, I think. It just costs far, far more to sustain the damn thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop Hedd Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 Wait, you mean big government liberal programs don't worK? I've heard non-sequitars on several occasions from you but you just topped yourself with that one. I guess the "Surge" (sounds like a lame energy drink from the coca cola company don't it) is just working out dandy too. The conservatives are really putting all their marbles on that one even though it shows absolutely no sign of fostering any political discourse in that country.

I went down the river with him on this one once. In his opinion Iraq is a big government program like the war on poverty or something. I don't know who we bombed during the war on poverty, but you get the picture. I suppose he has a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 If only W were more like his father vis a vis Iraq. GHWB and his administration responded to an actual invasion, built a real coalition, and worked it so that we were only responsible for 10% of the cost. Moreover, GHWB and Brent Scowcroft knew when to get the hell out and not get involved with the chaos that we have seen here. By contrast, W has shown that he is no GHWB. W has been an unmitigated disaster. Even one of the few good things he has done (lowering taxes) will probably be reversed as a result of the consequences of his other policies.

Alaska Darin Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I understand enough. Big government is saving the sacred private sector from itself. Really? What are the long term ramifications of the decision? What were the symptoms that led up to the bailout? I'm just wondering if you are against that? I remember you were complaining how the government was taking too much of your earnings on investments from taxes, yet here they are saving your investments. Funny how that works, eh? Further proof that you have almost no clue what you're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I've heard non-sequitars on several occasions from you but you just topped yourself with that one. Really? Why don't you explain exactly what you mean. I guess the "Surge" (sounds like a lame energy drink from the coca cola company don't it) is just working out dandy too. Do you have a point? Or just regurgitating something in an attempt to deflect from the issue at hand? I'm gonna guess "B". The conservatives are really putting all their marbles on that one even though it shows absolutely no sign of fostering any political discourse in that country. Why should it be any different over there than it is over here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I went down the river with him on this one once. In his opinion Iraq is a big government program like the war on poverty or something. I don't know who we bombed during the war on poverty, but you get the picture. I suppose he has a point. But for some reason, even though the war on poverty was lost a long time ago, you continue to support 'surge' after 'surge' of wasted efforts rather than admitting it was a mistake and you've been defeated. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha! Yeah I guess an inane plan that sprang forth from the bowels of Billy Kristol's nutty Orwellian named Project for the New American Century group and the U of Chicago's neoconservative clan could be labeled as "big government". ...but "liberal"? Yeah I guess that's why noted "libs" like Wellstone, Feingold, Kennedy all voted against it while DLC conservative hacks like Clinton, Lieberman and Feinstein voted for it. http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll...&vote=00237 Did you see Bush's ridiculous unpaid infomercial this morning? Once again doing the "fight em there so we don't fight em here" routine. What a looser! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has nothing to do with who started it or why, Sparky. Try looking at the world through something other than your "liberal love" glasses. It's still just another "program" that you end up with when you so readily cede power to a faceless bureaucracy. One of the byproducts, if you will. I don't expect you to get it because liberals just don't understand the term "consequences". Only idealism. What a looser! Loser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
