Well, it's like me sitting back in the shade with a cold drink while my neighbor buys the parts and then fixes my car in the Sun.

And your silly neighbor keeps doing it while you are saying "you can leave anytime".You know in this context that almost sounds rude.

I think he say, "you can leave anytime", because he knows it will take at lease 20 months and the fewer guys around the better the chance they'll get their asses kicked.



Then again, maybe we can pay him more, so we can leave safely. Paid Pakistan right?

BTW, let's not forget this stupid idea;

That pic reminds me of a game show they had where you were put in a booth and they shot money around in it for you to grab.As to pakistan he was offered money or he could choose to not cooperate in which case we offered they could be back to the stone age.On why AL-Maliki says we can leave,the story I have heard is they think we are embarrsing them with all this pressure and criticism over bench marks and such.Plus the story says we are trying to make them make deals with murderers(Sunnis)which they will not do they say.And it says AL-Maliki is not pleased with new US general and is mad about the walls we built and so on.And these are our friends there lol.

So, we can chose door #1, to embarass them, and make it look like they can't do it on their own, or door #2, tell them to make deals with Sunni's and put up with the General and the walls? or door #3 go to Vietnam to seek out terrorists http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1bY1j1qoLc&mode=related&search=

The vietnam choice reminds me of something funny.Bush went to Vietnam a few months ago.I remember making the joke to someone that we finally got the draft dodger to vietnam lol.But the real funny part was that while there the American press corps asked him what lessons he thought we could learn from vietnam and apply to Iraq.His answer was "Stay and finish the Job".I'm sure his hosts just loved that answer,the stupid :cussing:

 

[AFA]

He really is an ass

There's talk of taking the month of August off....Petraeus and Crocker are giving the report in September....and, regardless of months of deliberation, the hydrocarbon bill and the Baath bill haven't even been addressed by the full parliament nor can they even get out of the cabinet... Oh sure...this is going to work. :dunno:

 

[Werewolf]

I thought they were on Vacation already. What have they done in recent years? Don't think it makes any Difference...

 

[alexios]

I'm trying to figure out the subtle differences between their working, their vacationing, their auto-pilot government, or letting the U.S. do everything for them. Still haven't figured it out yet....

 

[AFA]

Seems like nobody wants the US there doesn't it?

Not even a majority the U.S. soldiers or the American people...

 

[AFA]

But, but, they're making money!

 

[Friday on my mind]

George has said he is sticking with it even if "Barney" his dog is his only supporter!

 

[AFA]

Yes, and the rest of us wait for "The Big One", (9/11 part 2), from the guy he didn't catch in Tora Bora when he had him.
