and let's not forget what happened to tricky dick...deja vu...
I have problems with Bush's politics on the Iraq War, though I am with Bush on not pulling out of Iraq too early.
His rhetoretic of "we fight terrorists abroad, so we do not have to fight them here". I have two problems with that statement, don't say that to our friends in England or Spain and he boast that he foiled at least 10 plots in America (which means they are here already and planning or he is making up stories to make America feel safe). BTW, when are we going to strengthen our borders and cargo?
He does not want to pullout (I agree somewhat) and does not want a timetable (I agree somewhat). No one plans to fail, just they fail to plan (sums up the Bush Administration, IMHO). I think they should have benchmarks that we should achieve before reducing the troops. He used to boast about the Iraqi security being over 100,000+ and growing according to his rhetoretic, yet we only withdrawn a couple 10,000 troops since the beginning of the war.
Just my two cents.
Yes that is the one. The VA is affiliated with Bellvue and NYU. Many doctors rotate between the 3. It has been a good network that helps Veterans get the best care available. but the VA is founded by government.Quote:

Oh man, he shredded shrubya on the speach monkeyboy gave earlier today. I particularly like how he pointed out the difference between insurgency and terrorism for the repugs who don't know the difference.
I'm waiting for the Bush Family Evil Empire to launch some "swift-boat-vet" style lies against John Murtha, just as they did with John Kerry.
personally, I hope to hell they don't. Not only was Murtha a fellow Marine(similar MOS infact), he never spoke out against the war while his fellows were still over there fighting it- and he deserves better. I really hate how politics tear apart veteran kinship in that way. And don't take that as a slap at Kerry. I refuse to pick sides in that little quarrel, just saying I think a little more highly of Murtha as a person than I do Kerry.Quote:

I can see where he is comming from, but I don't think this compares to Vietnam in the slightest. We're talking 50,000 casualties versus 2,000 here. And not too shock you guys too much, initial estimates in the service were more than 2000 losses in the first year. I'm not going to debate or support Bush's motives, but the majority of Iraqis are much better off now, and they will tell that to you themselves. And anyone who has heard any of the testimony/accusations against Saddam has to realize the world is a better place without that maniac in charge of anything.
Besides, pulling out now only guarntees that those 2,000 died for nothing. Maybe the long run will prove that to be anyway, I don't now. But pulling out now would be just plain dumb.
just my $0.02
Johm Murtha has gone senile.
