LOL!
I think she should take her wife and go visit Saudi Arabia for a few months. Then when she comes back (or should I say "if") she can explain on The View the difference between Islam and Christianity.
Excellent Idea!! Yes. I would love to see this as well.
This is the focal point of the democrat attack. They try to lump both wars together, and they provide no alternative solution to the current war on terror.
First things first. These two wars were fought for separate reasons. Afghanistan was obviously a Taliban/terrorist war.
In IRAQ: The removal of Saddam Hussein from power, was actually a continuation of the previous conflict. Agreements signed as the troops and aircraft decimated one of the worlds largest armies in the field, provided an end to the conflict, and preserved Saddam in power, but there were some strings attached.
After a short pause, and the coalition troops withdrew, Saddam was again thumbing his nose at the world, and violating the very agreements that kept him in power. After a dozen plus years, when he kicked out the weapons inspectors the world at large was right to assume the worst possible news about WMD's... because they were now blind. If he didn't have them before, nothing could stop him from making them.
The last straw had been broken. Still, they tried an economic embargo... and then added the oil for food program which Saddam exploited and then let his people starve.
Naturally, CNN was there to show, weekly and sometimes daily, pictures of suffering Iraqi's, claiming the US embargo was cruel.
In some ways, the CNN articles may have hastened the day of war.
So the stick didn't work, the carrot didn't work, and the only thing that remained was to bring about the conclusion of the previous war.. which is the removal of Saddam.
That part is done. We are only there now to protect the new government until the day it can protect its own people from catastrophy.
It is very important to get this right and explain it correctly. Afghanistan was a completely different war, and Iraq had US Congressional and U.N. mandates before it was begun. To sit around and nitpick at this point is mindless idiocy. We are there, the war is over now. Insurgency is a problem the Iraqis can handle themselves, one day. The time for explaining the war was over years ago. All this "I don't understand the war" is a bunch of fakery, anyway. They do understand... its just that they are 'fringe people' and they desperatly need "Billary" or Kerry to win in '08 so they can marry their clone. So... they gotta do what they gotta do.
Rosie O'Donnell is an overweight one-time comic actress who became a crashing bore once she decided that everyone had to know about her lesbianism.
Thank you my brother. It was only half tongue in cheek. I HAVE heard of her - but w/o TeeVee was not sure of the detail
"YUCK! maybe her partner, the last part, I mean!
Okay, wrong spelling, but it's still funny.
Think about this!! Rape Rosie? I DON'T THINK SO!
"Sorry. Who is Rosie?"
She was actually known as "Miss Nice" when she had her Rosie Show. Pure lipstick on a pig.
The demonrats created an educational system so bad that most people can't think critically
In response to recents events, and because she's a loudmouth lez, I propose we refer to her as FRootie.
