An Endless War where the "goal line" changes according to how the partisan winds are blowing.
If you read what I post, then how do you get your translation out of "I do not now nor have I believed since 1991 that removing Saddam Hussein from power was the strategically correct move?" You can search if you want, but you will not find a post by me that contradicts that stance.
And while you're being so smart, DO tell me EXACTLY what my "blind support for this war" entails. Feel free to fill me in on all the details of what my stance is on it.
Bush hasn't stopped the war so I will bitch until he does.
Bitching and making false accusations are two different things.
Your amateur psychoanalysis of me and my views is amusing. Wrong, but still amusing.
I don't have to psychoanalyze anything. You put the shit right out here for everyone to read on a daily basis. Not the slightest guesswork required.
And your deflective insult does not address the statement I made at all.
How many times have we seen you and your amigos do exactly the same thing when one of those "you don't know what kind of successes we have had over here" articles shows up in some local media? Pot meet kettle.
Prove it. The evidence that supports my statment is your posting the link. Now find one I have posted that meets your little criteria above.
I would ask you the very same thing.
Why? I have yet to state one.
What exactly is the mission again? Weapons of mass destruction? Removing Saddam? Nuclear weapons? What is the mission TODAY, Gunny?
The mission today is the same as it has been since Day One. Remove Saddam from power and install a democratic government and remian until it can stand on its own.
Your attempts to say it's anything else are just that ... mere attempts.
Nice strawman.
Poor deflection.
Don't quit your day job, whatever it is, because your new profession as Amateur Psychoanalysist isn't cutting it.
This war was a cluster fuck from the beginning and when every stated "goal" was missed, new "goals" became the objective. This is a the classic bait-and-switch. Sorry you fell for it. I refused to play the game from the outset because I refused to accept the parameters of the game knowing full well there was no reasonable outcome to benefit either ourselves or the Iraqis.
Your claim that if you quit before you are done you are a loser doesn't apply if the game is rigged against you before it even begins. If you follow a rigged game to it's disasterous conclusion, you are an idiot.
The goals haven't changed ... only your revolving accusations. You appear to have quite the fertile imagination. The goal of supporting a democratically elected Iraqi government until it can support itself is easily attainable. If you'd get out of lockstep formation and remove the blinders, it's pretty easy to see.
And you can save your brainwashing predictions of doom for someone willing to buy the nonsense.
