All the deaths in Iraq since we invaded can be blamed on Bush, as will the bloodbath after we leave. Civil wars ALWAYS tend to be boodbaths, but are unavoidable once begun and must run their course. We don't have to have OUR troops in the middle.

Saddam looks just SO much better in hindsight. THERE was a man who had "solved the problem of Iraq". Who KNEW he was controlling such a potential hell-hole of violence, and doing it with such apparent ease!

>>" They have an interesting sense of morality at the NYT, that's all I can say. Do deaths not count if they can be blamed on Bush? "<<

Well let's see now...If the troops are pulled out of Iraq, who will have been the "The Great Decider" of that decision? Well my gosh, it will have been the NY Times editorial writers.

Who else could it be? Certainly not the Great Decider. None of the Great Decider's decisions have a "sense of morality" unless they are dealing with stem cells or commutations. Everyone knows that the other decisions of the Great Decider are just "resolute" so the "genocide" that is occurring right now in Iraq must be due to the "interesting morality sense" of the NY Times editorial writers.

Yup, that makes sense...from now on any deaths in Iraq not counted will be blamed on the the New York Times editorial writers.

Nadine ...what do you expect.....a growing section of the american public feel lied to and betrayed.......dont blame the press or the editorial.... they often only reflect popular opinion.

The real problem cant be healed with ever more spin.......

There is not the will to support continue losses in a fight that seems endless .

We basicly blew it.
