DU This Poll: Bring 'em home?

This could be good or bad.

It's GOOD if you vote 'YES, get the Aussie SAS troops out of Iraq', because that hurts Bush's GOOD dear friend, the Australian Prime Minister, who's election plan is "Stay the Course".

It's BAD if you vote NO, because you guys just might. Our boys are only there to draw fire from US troops (And earn Australia a Free Trade Agreement with the US). The more of us that are there, the less likely your guys are gonna be shot at. If our boys come home, that's more gunfire aimed at you.

Why you guys are still there to take fire, I don't know... but that's a different rant. I know WHY they're firing at you, though. Yeah, Australia got F9/11 a month or so ago. I reckon it made a difference.

Anyway, a YES helps Mark Latham, who has called Bush "incompetent and dangerous". Michael Moore has gone on record in supporting Australia's impending regime change from ultra-conservative John Howard to fiery Mark Latham. He's promised to bring our boys home by Christmas if elected; a plan Dubya himself called disastrous. Hey, if Dubya says it...

John Howard is smitten with your conservative president, and it was Australia who launched the first strike against Iraq on your orders (look it up). Please help us depose our ultra-conservative tyrant.

Good ol' Mark Latham. Hey, anyone who'd say Dubya is "the most incompetent and dangerous President in living memory" has MY vote.

1. done. we need to get them all out of Iraq - let the Halliburtons

and bushies pay the mercenaries to do their killing, not 19 year old children who will be scarred and disillusioned for life.

Of course, they dont like to spend their money, if they can get cannon fodder for free.

4. To end this war in a fortnight all that's required is..............

.....To get all of Halliburtons board of directors and shareholders into uniform and post them down to the sharp end, either in Afghanistan or Iraq. And they could take the butchers, bakers and candlestick makers that call themselves New Labour as human shields.

I think you'll find that just like American Express that should do nicely?

3. Where?

I've gone back nine pages, and can't find any 'original'.

Is it truly too much trouble to copy and paste a weblink to the original?

Without proof backing up your claim, I am forced to treat Dupe-cryers as Freepers. If you claim John Kerry said "lesbians rock", prove it with a weblink or shut up.

(Just doing what I can to make DU a better place. Anyone can type four letters on their keyboard and post "dupe". A Freeper could, to quickly end any thread he doesn't like. Adding a weblink is just common decency, y'know?)

5. Sorry about that..

I meant that my post was a dupe not your thread. I posted something that was unrelated to what you were talking about so I erased it.
