ORIGINAL: Sanity 1) He was elected on promises to his base of withdrawing our troops from Iraq, 2) he was fighting to keep them there 3) but Iraq refused and demanded they be withdrawn, 4) so now he absurdly boasts of this "success" 5) And his sycophants are blissfully unaware even after its pointed out to them 6) I dont know if its funny or sad 6) For you it is sad, the incomprehension, the world is swirling around you and you are hysterical because you are incapable of relevant, correct, or cogent thought. 1) All US Forces are mandated to withdraw from Iraqi territory by 31 December 2011 under the terms of a bilateral agreement signed in 2008. 2) He was negotiating to keep 3-5000 advisors there, to maintain a presence in the area (it has use in terms of some covert actions) and if there is a williwaw in Afghanistan. To hang the word fighting on that effort (wasn't very vigourous, no top guys in and out of there, handled with military negotiators...sort of like asking the Nazi leaders to broker a peace between Americans and Russians). 3) Iraq didn't refuse the idea of thos 3-5000 troops, they refused the idea of giving them blanket immunity from their laws. (As I said, you guys fucked this up and your going to be looking at some hard line governments there and some BIG DIRTY DIRTY GAMBOO with Kurds and civilly with muslims. Won't be surprised they go a little Iranian over there). 4) No 'absurd' nothin. Mission accomplished, your boy said it, they are comin home. 5) syncophants aren't blissfully unaware, teabaggers are fuckin' embarrassed and look like the fucking idiots they are. So the 'embarrassment' is manufactured as a red herring to detract from the abject failures and wholesale inept of your parties body politik. So, to recap: War on terror: 1) Somali terrorists sieze american vessels, dead to a man. (Obama) 2) Osama bin Laden (terrorist) dead. (Obama) 3) Mohammar Khaddaffi (terrorist) dead. (Obama) 4) Other various and sundry terrorists dead. (Obama) 5) Leave Iraq and the blood and treasure we've spilled. (Obama) Republicans: 0) ..... Did I count that right guys? Not sure, it was a complex calculation for one team side.
