The Iraq Study Group suggests that the president engage in dialogue with Iran and Syria. If Bush doesn't drop his ridiculous preconditions (i.e. Iran must end its nuclear energy program first) then his ego will cause our country to not take the right course of action.
The Iraq Study Group agrees with democrats about once again using the diplomatic method.
Republicans thought democrats were crazy, and they didn't listen. Oh well, they had to find out they were wrong at some point.

Yes, I know the Iraq Study Group did say many other recommendations, but becoming diplomatic with Iran and Syria is one thing they came to a consensus on.

Who ever said I was talking about cut and run? I am talking about engaging in dialogue with Iran and Syria...

Of course we were. "Stay the course" sure didn't work , now did it? Or whatever other lies spewed from his Bushs' mouth. We need someone without an self absorbed agenda to fix this fiasco!

No, it just means the "democrats" and the Iraq study group agree. It doesn't mean either are right or wrong.
And not all democrats advocate diplomatic ties with Iraq or Syria., and some republicans do advocate it, so that premise is non-existent as well.
By the way, who would you send to Iran/syria? Neville "Peace is at hand" Chamberlain?

remember: Iran's nuclear program is under the auspices of an energy program. They're trying for nukes, and the President is right to demand they drop the programs as part of diplomatic negotiations and the democrats voted to go to war for this reason
whether or not he had nukes is kinda an afterthought dontcha think...do you think? does anybody ever remember history or is that why it always repeats itself during war because nobody stopped to think about the consequences....look at katrina!!!

Be very careful when almost everyone knows something is right.
Remember almost everyone knew:
The world is flat.
The earth is the center of the universe.
There will never be a need for man to fly and it can't be done anyway.
There will never be a need for a personal computer.
If you sail far enough west from Europe you will either fall off the edge or come to India.
I could go on and on for a couple hours with this list. So when ALL those Democrats KNOW they are right. How can I help but be skeptical? And you my friend should be careful you don't get TOO cocky.

The real thing you have to look at here is that not just the US will be fighting Iran, but alot of other big powers. (The ones will nuclear power mostly, besides Russia and China) And this wont be an occupation if it happens, it wont be like Iraq. It will be more WWII style warfare where you bomb the hell out of everything in the country and leave nothing. MANY less US casualties, more Iranian, but thats their fault.

Still looking for a question...
Iran's nuclear program is under the auspices of an energy program. They're trying for nukes, and the President is right to demand they drop the programs as part of diplomatic negotiations. There's more than one way to do diplomacy.

Right and thats just your opinion thats one of many about the whole Iraq Study Group. Republicans probably still think they were right to do what they did. I think they are all idiots Iraqs government doesnt give a rats @ss about anything the U.S gov't has to say they will continue to do what they do and thats final.

Did you look who was on the study group, geez. Why didn't the democrats at least place some military personnel on the panel, who actually knows what is going on in Irag.

Yeah they weren't agreeing Democrats.
They were agreeing with the progressives along the lines of
Moveon.org
Commondreams.org
CounterPunch.org
WhatTheHellAmIDoingHere.com
Who have been rallying against the war since 2002.
The Democrats have tried to distance themselves from these forward thinking people.

At least, they were less incorrect than the Republicans were. We need help and cooperation to save the world, guns should be a last resort. I have trouble calling the Democrats correct just because of a report and recommendation.
