CBS News: IRAQ NEARING "COMPLETE COLLAPSE"

[Bluebear]

0830EST television news.

Mission accomplished, you idiot?

[woodsprite]

1. Collapsing it over there, so he can collapse it over here. n/t

[lonestarnot]

16. Collapsed is easier to carry. hmmmf.

[pampango]

2. Damn MSM. When will they get the message right:(

:sarcasm:

[Gman]

3. But what about the schools they painted?

Drive by media at work!

[gasperc]

8. drive-by paint job

soldiers would hold spray cans out the window as they drove past the schools,
it was for efficiency, they could paint more schools that way

[Botany]

4. No water, no power, no jobs, civil war, flight of the educated,

and people talk about a collapse?



Only one thing to do .... START A WAR WITH IRAN ......... it is their fault.

[radfringe]

5. they shouldn't be reporting that

it sends the wrong message, it emboldens americans to scream for impeachment

[Bluebear]

7. Plus, we have built numerous hospitals & schools over there.

Oops, no we haven't.

[gasperc]

6. no ya think

well so much for emboldening the enemy

[ima_sinnic]

9. see how they're always showing only the negative side?

what about the GOOD news? how come we never hear that?

[KharmaTrain]

10. Aw C'mon...That's "Librul Media" Again...

Where's all that good news...we know it's happening there...or so the wingnuts keep saying so. All we need are another 40,000 troops and everything will be sweetness and light. This is just "fear mongering" from the "Communist Broadcast System" :sarcasm:

Has anyone else been hearing about the looming battle for Kirkuk? If fighting breaks out there...between Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis, this civil war will go into hyper-drive...and all booshie can think about is bombing Iran.

11. You think?

You think it was any accident that we started losing helicopters at a fast pace as soon as the "surge" was announced?

George Bush just raised $10, the insurgents re-raised $100. And they have the cards.

[Bluebear]

13. Correction, George Bush just raised $265 billion

As if just throwing money that this nation's great-granchildren will still be paying off will solve things.

[sendero]

17. My amounts were metaphorical..

... it doesn't matter how much money George raises, he is trumped.

[killbotfactory]

12. That will demoralize our troops!

Shoot the messenger, quick!

[no_hypocrisy]

14. The meaning of "Mission Accomplished" depends upon what you have

signified by the "mission". These days, I'm thinking that it means to destabilize the nation of Iraq by creating perpetual chaos, then move onto another country and do the same thing. While chaos isn't necessarily the best friend for free enterprise, it has benefit for monopolies and exploitation of raw materials, that is, oil. Iran would be the third country so far, and then there's always Syria, and maybe turn on our "friends" in Saudi Arabia, even Jordan. You just don't create Empire overnight . . .

[malaise]

15. As Biden said a few minutes ago

the only mission he has accomplished is more terrorists in Iraq. Fugg Bush.
