I read it. It flew in the face of everything Adams warned us of in 1821. But hell that was just the son of one of the Framers. What could he know about the intended role of these United States in world affairs when compared to the wisdom of Bush? Freedom for the Iraqis? Sounds quite similar to enlisting our banner under the banner of 'foreign independence'. Also note Bush used the 9/11-Iraq ties excuse in that speech which have for the most part been discounted by now. Well except for
true believers like yourself...
Tell us Coop. Every good military strategy, actually any strategy, should have certain goals outlined to meet so one can claim a project is finished. What are your watermarks? Your test points? If these points aren't met on a regular basis, do you change your views? Or does that just happen when the 'wrong' party comes to power?
Also note Bush used the 9/11-Iraq ties excuse in that speech which have for the most part been discounted by now.If by "discounted" you mean "reinforced" then for once I am in agreement with FR's resident armchair general pessimist.
What a complete disgrace you are...
