Joe Biden: The Iraq Surge Was a Failure

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 04/08/2008
Nardo, First off, the rest of the world also agreed with us that Iraq had WMD and therefore posed a threat. Yes, the US & UK intel analysis was wrong on that. However, Germany, France and Russia also came to the same conclusion that Iraq had reconstitut … (see comment)

"...protect human health from the occurrence of drastic climatic changes due to global warming that has been swiftly damaging the environment across the globe?" What? Who writes this crap? "Drastic climate changes?" Really? This is news? Climate has … (see comment)

Starless, We're fighting an insurgency in Iraq. Such things take time to grind through. Usually, it takes at least a decade of full-on counter-insurgency operations to do the job. That's at a minimum. The US has only been in Iraq for five years and ha … (see comment)

"Failure?" According to whom? By what standard? Define "failure" as pertains to Iraq. No, don't use the DNC talking points or the pap that spews from the candidate's mouths. Define "failure" in nice and objective terms. US casualties are down, Iraqi … (see comment)

Tang, That's "hawk" as in relatively so. And relatively so in terms of today's Democrat party. If you want a Democrat "hawk" who was kickin' it old school, then compare "Plagiarizing Joe" to "Give 'Em Hell Harry" and you'll see Biden ain't much of a haw … (see comment)

JD, As per standing UN Resolutions, the US had that UN's authorization to use force against Iraq if the US found Iraq to be in "real and material breach" of the terms of the Cease Fire Agreement which brought a close to the Gulf War of '91. Thus, even by … (see comment)

Obama: I'd Hire Gore

Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 04/04/2008
Obama is pandering. And he's screwed up. Al Gore is a man of the past. Sure, he might look appropriate at a Democrat campaign rally when he's amongst a buncha folk up on stage. But as a sign of the future to fit in with Obama and his "Change" message? … (see comment)

Justice, For a minute - just a minute, honest, that's all it'll take, really - pull your nose outta Gore's ass and look around. Listen to yourself. Al Gore didn't give a god-damn about the environment throughout his political career. His family has ear … (see comment)

One analysis that I've heard is that the reason Al has gotten so public in pushing his Global Warming spew is to _against_ Hillary. He can't stand her, or so says the analysis. So, by pushing his AGW lies he keeps himself in the public eye and thus rema … (see comment)

Yeah that's Michael Crichton as in Doctor Michael Crichton, graduate of Harvard Medical School. While I wouldn't look to him to conduct nano-molecular assembly efforts, I would say though that the guy's got a better grasp of scientific facts than Al Gore … (see comment)

Yeah, except that Carbon Dioxide has nothing to do with global warming - man caused or otherwise. You see, when they examined the paleoclimate records they found that CO2 has been a lot higher when it was colder, a lot lower when it was hotter and everyw … (see comment)

Pedropt, Nope, sorry boyo, there's no consensus on "man caused " global warming: http://www.populartechnology.net/2007/10/no-consen ... And the IPCC isn't all that great either: http://www.canadianvalues.ca/issues.aspx?aid=267 … (see comment)

Petro, Okay, try these: "No, actually, there has been cooling, if you take 1998 as your point of reference. If you take 2002 as your point of reference, then temperatures have plateaued. This is certainly not what you'd expect if carbon dioxide is drivin … (see comment)

You want more global warming? Okay, just wait around another fifty, sixty years or so. By then the coming _cooling_ cycle will have about run its course and we'll be back to a warming cycle. In the meantime, be sure to save up all the "man caused globa … (see comment)

"Suppress" scientists? Really? Like who, per say? Oh, right, the "suppressed" Dr. Hansen. Right... he's the guy who's been ranting for decades now that climatological doom is upon us. Back in the 70's it was gonna be Global FREEZING! But now he's sw … (see comment)

Strongo, No, Gore is a loser. A hypocritical, lying, ineffective, sanctimonious loser. He knows that if he sticks even so much as a toe tip back into political waters that all the popularity and ass-kissing he currently enjoys will be gone in a heartbea … (see comment)

Cad, Have you read something other than DailyKos of late? You know, something with _facts_ to it and not just the party line? Yeah, something like that. Let's see now, NASA satellite measurements show no global warming since 1998. According to the cli … (see comment)

Foo, Especially for the special people like Reverend Al. Yeah, so he can lecture us all on what eco-sinners we all are whilst he lives larger than a hundred average folk combined. Yeah, let's have more of that! (see comment)
