Cmon bro I proved you wrong about what you asserted and now you dont want to admit it.

So now I need to create my own thread. LOL!
You didn't prove me wrong in any way "bro", we never ended the war in Iraq because we left before we got Saddam. We're STILL fighting the war in Iraq even though Obama's claimed it was over a year ago and showed videos of troops ceremoniously leaving the country on CNN.

I think perhaps more than ever, the retardation of the political discourse by the radical right has truly shown through on this issue. The transparent hypocrisy shown by the GOP and their conservative media voice boxes is really appalling and at the same time, comical.

Backspace either you're confused or purposely forgetting what we were discussing.

YOU asserted that a no fly zone means we are at war

I gave a clear example of when we we insituted a no fly zone in Iraq between 1991-2003 and that was not described or listed as being at WAR with iraq during those periods.

You responded that we have been at war with Iraq between 1991-2003 during the no fly zone

I responded and said ok if that is the case SHOW me ONE historical reference that describes the US as being at WAR with Iraq between 1991-2003 during the no fly zone.

Instead of responding to my question (because you know you cant find a reference thats states we were at war with Iraq during the no fly zone) so you deflect and say I need to create my own thread.



Care to admit you were wrong now?

I never said that a no fly zone means we are at war, I said that we are doing in Libya is a lot more than enforcing a no fly zone. If you're going to make false statements at least quote me correctly. You then went off the deep end talking about Iraq and the Gulf war which in my opinion we never stopped fighting.

It's just another opportunity to say the same thing like a broken record. It isn't a left or a right thing, it's all the same thing. It's becoming obvious to the rest of us, why not you?

How do you know we've killed innocent civilians with them?

The "coalition" forces deny it's happened but many reports show it's true.

This whole economic mess started with the Bush regime, although Obama has done little to correct the putrid path Bush-Cheney put us on.

Obama=Bush.

Bush=Obama.

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are still being waged. We just attacked a third sovereign nation and Gitmo is still open. The Presidents change but the agenda stays the same. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Because that tends to happen when you drop bombs on a country.
