Shea, And isn't that a comforting thought?  A <strong>senile</strong> man with his finger on the bomb.  shudder Jay, Probably not since the language they speak depends on which country they are in.  The people in the Czech Republic and Slovakia speak different languages. Serge, I'd be happy to be entertainment free instead of voting for McCain. Jan,

Shea,

Serge,

You could make shows with your politicians starring based just on their ignorance. Well, probably you do... yes you must have. What can I say... you've got Bush, now if you want some more entertainment just vote for this McCain guy. LOL! You could make shows with your politicians starring based just on their ignorance.

That sure doesn't sound like a resounding vote of approval for the surge.  BTW, the Iraqi government want the United States to start pulling out of Iraq.  While Obama he's been in Iraq he's talked to Al-Maliki and <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25774091/" rel="nofollow">Al-Maliki</a> seems to share Obama's view on pulling out US troops.  Really, LoP, try to read/listen to someone other than FOX/Limbaugh/Malkin sometime.  Then you might stop writing stupid sentences like "Obama agrees with the troop surge so much now, he himself is visiting Iraq."  You also might not include a link that reiterates the implication that Iraq was behind 9/11.  17 of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia.  None were from Iraq.
