CNN seriously asked "Is the U.S. to blame for the situation in Iraq?"
Edited on Mon Mar-08-04 02:06 AM by glarius
Unbelievable!....I see more and more of this shit on TV.....Martin Savidge is saying, "Iraqis are quick to point a finger of blame at the United States, but not at each other" for the present problems...For God's sake the United States invaded Iraq!....Now the Bush apologists are whining because the Iraqis aren't grateful for their liberation!...Earlier tonight I saw Dennis Miller scolding the Iraqis for not being grateful that America brought them the chance for democracy...I repeat....UNBELIEVABLE!
edit---I mean what is it with these people? Do they comprehend NOTHING?

3. Yesterday, CNBC Said "Outsoucing Creates Jobs"
I kid you not. Some corporate hag said exactly that.

Doublespeak is alive and growing.

6. Since when
has the buck stopped with Bush. Truman must be rolling over in his grave that such cowards succeed him.

7. Plus,
...it's easy to blame the victims. Iraqis have been victimizes by their own government for decades. The Americans and most European powers added to that victimization in the 80s with their financial support of Hussein. They continued to be victimized after Gulf War I only to be victimized yet again by Gulf War II and the ensuing terrorism that is now taking hold. Do CNN and Dennis Miller define "thank you" the same way I do? If and when Iraq becomes a democratic nation without the constant fear of terrorism, then they might say thank you. Until then, forget about it, punks!
