Okay. That shouldn't raise eyebrows when I order my Fender. (Solid Body Fender & a Semi Hollow Body Ric makes sense)
Now I kind of favor the red 'Fireglo' color Ric. Is that good by you?

;-)

Can’t be. President Miserable Failure Obama declared the war over. His kind of liberal insisted that the terrorist attacks were happening because of US presence in their “muslim” nation.

Obama lied, people died.

I’m just glad no more American troops died. We can’t afford Eternal Occupation anyway. Taxbongo adhering to Bush’s exit date and getting our troops the hell out of that 3rd world hellhole is the only thing the stupid Kenyan Marxist has gotten right. A blind Kenyan finds an acorn every now and then, I guess.

Right. We leave and the violence starts. We go back in and more Americans die and America goes even more broke.

I have a better idea — let’s drill for our own oil, and shut down our borders until these ignorant sub humans finish each other off. That way, everybody wins.

*********

Exactly. It was a stupid idea to think a bunch of 3rd World Flintstonians would want a 1st world stable country in the first place.

NO MORE STUPID NATION BUILDING.

File this under:

It doesn’t fit the narrative, and might embarrass the Messiah!

A “free” Iraq will fall to the Izzie bro-hood murdering thugs. Iraq will be a total mess shortly with people dying. Add that too the chosen one’s resume.

As much as I want to blame Obama, it was George W Bush who signed the agreement that all US forces would be withdrawn this month.

The moment that Bush signed off on the agreement for that exit date, the radicals started planning on tearing Iraq apart when we finally left.

That helicopter took off with about fifty people left on the roof, waiting for it to return and rescue them. It never came back.

I don't know what is "false" about a regime, crumbling before your eyes. The top gubmint officials are already arresting each other.

C'mon. This ain't a video game.

No, we're done with Iraq. Just like we were done with VietNam. Color us gone, and we won't be coming back. Iraq is F*ed.
