The Republican occupation of Iraq will cost working class tax payers $2 trillion over 10 years. In Iraq now they have 2 million homeless, over half are children. Over 100,000 Iraqis are also dead.
250,000 Iraqis fled to Jordan to avoid the civil war in Iraq.

I say "Republican occupation" because Democrats tried to set a date to end the occupation and Bush and the Republicans blocked it. BTW, some need to deal with facts, Congress approved the removal of Saddam and the search for WMDs. Congress never approved the occupation of Iraq.

But Cheney said that they would greet us with flowers and candy.

Do you think the average republican war-lover can dislodge their heads from their rear ends long enough to even realize they have been lied to? Let alone comprehend the damage the Bush administration has done to not only Iraq, but to America and it's reputation? You give these cretins far too much credit. Often in error, never in doubt, that is their speed, 100% dumba$$.

Is it a Republican Occupation?
Yet Democrats claim that most of the military is Democrat?
Most Democrats in Congress authorized deploying troops to Iraq?
And, taxes are paid by All Americans, and all American based Companies. Some might even say that the Illegal Immigrant invaders are paying taxes also. so, it is not just the working class.
God bless Jordan for stepping up and accepting the Iraqi refugees.
America has more homeless, many of them Veterans of our Armed services, (shameful)
As far as dead insurgents,terrorists? Well, they are in a better place.

Oh, and what happened to that Democrat promise that they would get us out of Iraq?

Obviously it didn't cost the U.S. a cent to ignore the terror and murder perpetrated by the Islamic radicals against Americans and other innocent victims around the globe for over 25 years - well, except for that 9/11 event, and the USS Cole, and the Marines in Beirut, and the first WTC bombing, all the embassy bombings, and .........................Mmmmm - On second thought, maybe confronting these dirt bags rather than ignoring them might not be a bad deal after all.

Isn't true that the top 20 percent of the population pays 50 percent of the taxes? How does this make a war paid for exclusively by the working class?

Are you kidding? Of course we're upset at the stupid thoughtless arguments and questions like this one.

Your question avoids some other questions that are much more intelligent.

What's the cost of the "social safety net" that only impacts about 10% of the population but costs TENS of TRILLIONS of dollars. As a social worker I see three, four, and five generations of dependency caused by the confiscation of tax money from the hardworking to subsidize those who do not choose to support themselves!

Fighting the Iraqi front of the war on terror benefit 300 million people, the entire population of the US! Spread that cost out over the trillions we spend in Afghanistan and Iraq and you will see it's a relative bargain.


Ask any of the soldiers from the 27 other countries, like Italy, Poland, and Latvia why they are giving their lives for the battle for freedom in Iraq. The europeans who are with us in Iraq, not like the cowardly French or germans, are there because of the fifty years they lived without the freedom to ask stupid questions on Yahoo that you have.

Bush and the Americans are HEROES in those countriesl Those people understand freedom is worth dying and killing for. So do the Iraqis in the 14 of 16 provinces that are free of Al Queda and Hussein; they are poor but peaceful.




Where was your care about the people of Iraq dying in that country, and the aborted millions, while that was going on?

Ask the Cowardly News Network (CNN) how many hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's died under Sadham Hussein without the media doing a daily body count! Their editor revealed shortly after the fall of Hussein that they knew of the rape rooms and death camps and Sunni outrages but did not report it our of fear for their lives! Ask the UN how many billions of dollars the scammed off of the oil for food program!

Ask Khaddafi in Libya why he gave up his missles and renounced terror. Ask the Egyptians why they had to set up free elections, finally! Ask the Lebanese that we support with economics and logistics to fight the Syrians.

And why don't you ask Bill Clinton why he was developing the "Peace Dividend" and sexing up Monica Lewinski when he should have been fighting the Blind Sheik, Bin Laden, and all the other terrorists that have been plotting the war on us through terror since the 1970's

I studied under a man who escaped from the Middle East to teach political science here. He explained what the Al Queda network would eventually do to us and predicted the global war on terror we are now involved in. It's a fight to the death, tella, and we need to win it!

Too bad you don't remember what JFK said; that we would bear every burden, fight every battle, to maintain the cause of freedom throughout the world!

It really doesn't benefit anybody to be "bothered" by these facts. We americans can hide behind our flags and our huge military and loll in the comfort of our malls, hummers and mini mansions. Our politicians will continue to manipulate the masses with fear propaganda. Pride will continue to be esteemed as a virtue. We will continue to consume more and more and more until the earth can no longer support us as a nation. Freedom.... what is it....?

It does not problem me that our President is black. it quite is his going decrease back on marketing campaign delivers (certainly he's a extensive fat liar purely like Bush grew to become into!) and pooh poohing this united states of america left and perfect that bothers me. in spite of the incontrovertible fact that, he isn't owed admire as a results of fact of his job/identify. it quite is earned via movements, and so a methods, he hasn't earned mine. Did you admire Bush while he grew to become into in place of work? no longer likely. It grew to become into completely ok for the Libs in this united states of america to hate and disrespect him mutually as he grew to become into our chief, yet while the Conservatives do the very comparable element, we are a team of haters. while in actuality, it is not something better than the liberals all being a team of hypocrites.

Why did you say "working class"??? Do the rich not have to pay any of that debt?

And who exactly do you think those Iraqi's were that fled to Jordan? Was it really to avoid "civil war?" Is there a Civil War?

"Republican occupation"????

You have a very sick choice of lies.
