QUESTION: Prime Minister Allawi told Congress today that democracy was taking hold in Iraq and that the terrorists there were on the defensive. Is he living in the same fantasy land as the president?
I am stuned, deets please.
Hint: the reporter was bashing Kerry, not Bush.
The more the LIEbs come out the MORE America sees who and WHAT they really are.
2 Americas? Hell no! One America and one France II.
Im so sick of all of this...I wish we could go to sleep and wake up Election day sometimes....Im so tired of the Liberal MSM making this campaign so close...it shouldnt be...REAL AMERICANS should be standing up in droves for our President...its simply astonishing that they arent....there must be something in Liberals genes that make them that crazy...
Exactly.
Are you serious? This was an actual question asked by a reporter? It's like they gave Kerry his answer within the question...
This almost reads like a parody of a biased media. Damn.
Two days of taking questions from the press and either I missed it or I haven't heard one person from the press ask the Traitor to respond to allegations from the Swift Boat vets????
Yeah, that's how I read it, too.
I'd be curious to know who the reporter was. It reads like it may have been a sarcastic comment directed against Kerry.
I think the prime minister is, obviously, contradicting his own statement of a few days ago, where he said the terrorists are pouring into the country. The prime minister and the president are here, obviously, to put their best face on the policy. But the fact is that the CIA estimates, the reporting, the ground operations and the troops all tell a different story.
Yesterday I read the report of a deputy director of the Provisional Coalition Authority. He's now returned to the United States. And his report was really pretty devastating. He wrote that we are losing the peace. He wrote that we are not getting the reconstruction aid out, that only 5 percent of the money has been spent. He wrote of the levels of unemployment and of the difficulties of people who are earning money throwing grenades at American soldiers. Then he told Congress there were 95,000. He didn't tell the truth to the Congress. There were 5,000 -- 5,000. That's a disgrace. It's a disgrace that the secretary of defense doesn't tell the truth to the American people. And it's a disgrace that this president doesn't hold anybody in his administration accountable for failure. These are not small miscalculations. These are miscalculations which are costing lives, costing America's reputation in the world. These are miscalculations of judgment. And that's what we hire a president for, is to exercise the right judgment. I think this president has exercised the wrong judgment from day one, and that's why we need a change.
Please explain, perhaps I'm slow.
I agree
Unbelievable. And they don't think they are biased. Unbelievable.
What was the answer??
Whatever. Certainly not appropriate in any case IMHO.
I read it, but didn't hear it. Are you sure? I could easily see it the other way.
Agreed. A follow up question: "Please name all of the world leaders you believe are living in a Fantasy World, similar to that of President Bush."
