This is the guy who went after MoveOn.org for an ad? But evidently Mr. Boehner doesn't believe dying for the Iraqis is a big enough price to pay for Iraq. Dismemberment isn't either. Yeah, especially when it's not your life or limb that's being lost. Where do Republicans find these guys?

1. 3 things about this:
1. Besides saying that the investment is a small price to pay, Boehner states "but think our the future for our kids and their kids". Well hell Boehner, 99% of our kids and their kids are going to be cursing this administration until the day they die because they'll be struggling to pay their bills even worse than we are!!!!! Not only are prices for everyday products going to keep rising, but our kids and their kids will be paying off trillions of dollars for this lie, this sham!

2. Last night on Keith Olbermann, the worst person in the world was again, Bill O'Rielly. He said a doozy this time. Basically what he said was, it's o.k. to sacrifice another 1,000 lives (an estimate according to intelligence) in Iraq over the next year so that Petraeus can do his thing (paraphrasing here). The video is here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677/

3. Where do they find these guys? I'm guessing the sewer.

3. I haven't heard his comment yet........
I'm at work and have no access to audio....

Petraeus already said he did not know if the war is making us safer so the question is, if it is not making us safer, then why pay the price? No matter how small........

2. "Stop Al Quaeda and stablize the Middle East"
Edited on Thu Sep-13-07 11:21 AM by niceypoo
OMFG

We are doing polar opposite to that. We are recruiting for Al Quaeda and we are destablizing the middle east. I guess we can't expect much given the source; remember Boners crying, whimpering, cliche filled breakdown in front of congress this summer?? "Waaaa!, fight them there so we don't have to fight them here...waaaaa!, freedom is on the march....waaaaa!, have to stand up so we can stand down....waaaaaaa!!!"

4. Operative word: "if"
"It will be a small price to pay IF we can stabilize the region, blah, blah, blah..."

And what kind of price will it be if we DON'T do this dickhead? Therein lies the question, shit-for-brains!!

6. As long as someone else's kids are the "price" he's referring to as "small".
What a neocon prick!

7. And exactly how much of that price is Boehner paying?
This guy pisses me off almost as much as Bush and Cheney.

8. I wish his arms and legs would drop off
his brain would swell, and permanent damage would result, he wouldn't be any more stupid. And he might get a clue about empathy.
