If liberals had the choice between winning the war or impeaching Bush, which would they do?

Question

First off, this is obviously a what if scenario.

Scenario 1 - We win the war in Iraq (I'm not blind, it looks like we have no chance in hell, but once a again this is a what if scenario). Liberals start talking about how they were always for the war and Hillary changes her vote again. As a result the Republican party is seen stronger on defense and wins in 2008.

Scenario 2 - We lose in Iraq (which based on what we get from the media is inevitable). Bush is impeached because Liberals don't like him. The Democrats were always right and they parade in the streets. They win in 2008.

Which scenario would a liberal choose?

lltirx - You failed to pick a scenario. You picked parts from both. It is an OR question not an AND question.

One Pissed off Liberal - You failed to answer the question as well.

MI and Obama's fan - Both failed to answer the question.

lltrix and MI - You are still failing to answer the question. It is either scenario 1 or 2.

Answer 1

Scenario 2, There is no way to win this war, It is all about religion now. Until the different factions in Iraq can learn to accept their religious differences and live and let live there willl never be peace there.

Have you ever noticed how countries that repress women have difficulty getting along?

Answer 2

There isn't a war that the liberals like, except a war to force the "rich" to pay more taxes.

No matter what happens with the war they want Bush gone. It would take more time to impeach Bush than he has in office. Just look at how long it took to impeach Clinton. If the Democrats thought threw their wish they'd realize that the 2nd Bush was impeached the VP would become president. Then they'd have to work on impeaching him. While this is going on he is picking a new VP. By now the 2008 election has already come & gone.

Answer 3

Bush needs to be impeached. Once impeached we can finally be able to do something right with this war, whether it be changing our strategies or geing able to bring the troops home. Right now, Bush is playing stubborn, refuses to admit he was wrong in this and will not look at other alternatives. He just continues to send people in to die when that has been proven to not be working the past four years that we have been in Iraq. Something does need changing. Take the cotton out of your ears and listen up.

Answer 4

First of all, don't be so pessimistic about the war in Iraq. In oder to "win", all we have to do is get the Iraqi government strong enough to stand on its own. In a matter of another year, their police and army will be able to assume their full duties without our assistance. Then, the insurgency will have a much, much harder time recruiting new members because it can't use the lame excuse that they are fighting an "occupier".

Given the choice, Libs would OF COURSE rather impeach Bush. Libs don't want to win the war in Iraq, because in doing so, it proves that they are always on the wrong side of history. Liberals ridiculed Reagan's strategy with the USSR, and we all know what happened: as Margaret Thatcher noted, he "won the Cold War without firing a shot".

When we prevail in the Middle East, Liberals will be seething with anger and resentment. They will look like like irrelevant relics. They have no ideas, no strategies. To prove my point, watch The O'Reilly Factor on Fox News. O'Reilly gives these guests "The Final Word". In many cases, these Liberals can't even form a logical case for what they are advocating. All they can do is whine like some old bitty. Hence, they make fools of themselves. On national tv, they have the opportunity to state exactly what they believe and what their plans are. They routinely fail to say anything of consequence.

Answer 5

First of all, this is not a war, it is an invasion, a police action, masquerading as a war. Secondly, there never was any chance of winning, and the powers that be, never intended for it to ever end, from day one. It has always been based on nothing but lies, and that has not changed. Nor, will it ever change. So, even though your point is moot, I will have to go with scenerio 2, if those are my only choices. I am not a democrat by the way. Not all Liberals are democrat, or even follow any party lines at all. And not all democrats are liberal either! *sm*

Answer 6

A liberal would choose Scenario 2 in a heartbeat, they think that there is no chance of winning this war anyway. And besides any of them would cut off their right arm to see President Bush get impeached, and get made fun of by other liberals and the media. Scenario 2 would be the only choice for a liberal.

Answer 7

first of all lltrix winning the war is most definitely a choice we can make. And we should make.

For all those that believe this war is already a loss know nothing of history or what it takes to win a war. Wars don't always go right it doesn't mean when something goes bad you cut in run.

After operation Market Garden failed during WWII we didn't go well oh **** that didn't work lets go home.

We need to give our troops the tools and man power they need . Stop spreading this bull crap propaganda about how America is evil, Bush lied, its all for oil, etc. The liberal media and the liberals are giving the terrorist the tools to win this war.

Answer 8

Both are bad. How about, we impeach Bush and Cheney, leave Iraq to the Iraqi's to win or lose and the Dems parade in the streets over Hillary's win in 2008?

Billy - I did answer your question. I don't like either choice you gave (which is why I said both are bad) and who in their right mind would pick one or the other of your inflammatory choices????

Answer 9

That's too easy! They'd impeach Bush! I mean look at Dan Rather who pretty much threw away 40 years of a high-powered career when he made up that AWOL stuff. I never watched him and I heard about it the same night he reported about the letters from ABC who's handwriting experts had already determined they were forgeries. CBS doesn't have handwriting experts? Then he perpetuated the lies by interviewing people who "claimed" to have known about this 40 years ago when they were obvious biased if not out-right lying. Have you ever seen such extremes but supposedly intelligent individuals to bring down a President? They didn't even do this sort of thing to Nixon! Nothing is more important to these people than to "get" the President.

Answer 10

The was is not winnable and never WAS but I would LOVE to see Bush impeached and tried for war crimes. Iraq is far beyond the powers of the US to controll events. Its up to the Iraqis to determine their own course. But seing Bush in the dock at the Hague on trial for warc rimes, after his impeachment would be a good thing.
