Thank God!
The U.S. combat troops are leaving Iraq... thank you for delivering on the promise President Barack Obama!
The last of the United States combat troops are heading home after nearly seven and a half years occupying the nation of Iraq that was spearheaded by the neo-cons of the Bush-Cheney Administration.
Remember?
"The smoking gun in the form of a mushroom cloud," Bush said in October of 2002 while the drums were being banged to get Americans behind the "war on terror."
That exaggeration was echoed by then Vice President Dick Cheney and also by Condaleeza Rice, another hardcore neo-con insider of the Bush administration.
Finally, these people can get on with their lives after the repeated hard tours of duty they have performed.
Thank you troops...
and Thank God!
Yes, thank God these troops are coming home! I'm sure it was no easy feat, but he Obama administration pulled it off--like you said, as promised! Now let's just hope they don't end up deployed in Afghanistan. We need to get out of there as well.
ReplyDeletebtw...awesome job on your blog, Jim. I've been missing out, but I will return in the middle of the night and catch up! Great job on your NFL Previews. Now don't forget the Rams, or is it even worth mentioning!? I hope so.
It really has been too long.
ReplyDeleteJust the other day I saw a picture of W with some soldiers, that was captioned, "Former President Bush visits the troops."
Only thing was the picture was taken at the DFW airport where these soldiers just happened to be at the same time as W.
Hypocrit in office.
Hypocrit out.
