What do you think of Obama deploying 1,500 more troops to Iraq? Or his drone strikes? Seems like you don't give a fuck about military action in Iraq now that a liberal is in office. Liberal war=good. Conservative war=bad. You fucking hypocrite.

Actually, I'm for it. The whole thing where we care-enough-only-to-bomb really makes us look like a bunch of cowards. It's beneath the dignity of our nation and quite possibly our species. At least with some boots on the ground we're risking something... y'know what I mean? Makes it look like we actually care.

I've always felt that the best wayfor us to reliably determine the political future of Iraq was to simply move 30 or 40 million Americans there... 1500 is a start.
You could make it 1501.

So you actually support the addition of troops? Why aren't YOU over there fighting? Or putting up signs about that? You used to be anti-war, now you're pro-war. You claim bombing campaigns are cowardly (I somewhat agree, but they can be strategically beneficially if employed intelligently), but you don't say a peep about them in your signs. Why do you like war so much now that there's a liberal in office?

Correction: I'm for the addition of 40 or 50 million civilians, not troops. Having trouble figuring out how I'm now "Pro-war", but I don't spend as much time thinking about me as you do. Thanks for the update!

You said you were for Obama sending in 1,500 more troops.

Freewayblogger said...

Yeah, as a start. Then another couple of tens of millions of people like you. You know, the ones who care.

I can't believe you went from posting anti-war signs years ago to supporting Obama's wars. Unbelievable.

I don't believe it either. I guess that makes two of us.
