In reply to the discussion: McCain Slams Obama: We Should Have Stayed In Iraq [View all]Proud Liberal Dem
(24,412 posts)My question(s) for McCain, et. al about all of this:
1. Would Iraq be in such a big mess now if we hadn't invaded/occupied Iraq 2003-2011? Was getting rid of a bloody yet isolated/contained stable and secular dictatorship (which had no WMDs) worth all of the money and American (and Iraqi) lives spent in getting rid of Saddam and his psychotic sons?
2. Is he, et. al suggesting that we should have ignored Iraq's refusal to negotiate a new SOFA and their request that we remove all of our troops in defiance of their democratically elected government that we spent lots of money and lives to set up and defend? I thought that they were all about promoting freedom and democracy (I know that they're not but they say they are, so, hey let's hold them to that).
I bet that they can't answer any of these questions honestly
