"We are in a war against terrorists, to have a blame meeting isn't, in my opinion, constructive"

Republicans argued that Bremer and the CPA staff did the best they could under the circumstances and accused Democrats of trying to score political points over the increasingly unpopular Iraq war.

"We are in a war against terrorists, to have a blame meeting isn't, in my opinion, constructive," said Rep. Dan Burton, an Indiana Republican.

1. After 12 years of unchecked and total domination, the Pugs do not
remember the idea of cooperation or humility.

2. If they really want to "move forward" and start from here, rather
than demand an accounting for past misdeeds, then WHY IN THE HELL did they hang Saddam?!

4. Solution to Iraq problem: Dig hole. Bury head. Sing "God Bless America".
Keeps that pesky reality from interfering with beautiful thoughts and patriotic know-nothingism.

5. Well, this "reality" of which you speak
has a "well-known liberal bias." ;) (According to Dr. Stephen T. Colbert, anyway.) Still, it's pretty disgusting and infuriating that people act this way. :banghead:

6. You'd think every American would be up-in-arms about this,
especially those who are supposedly knowledgeable about what's been going on.
Instead, they make excuses for the purpose of absolving all involved. I just don't get it.
I want to know what happened to all that money, dammit!

7. A citizen has to wonder where they get the bxlls to say the things
they say. A citizens has to wonder to what degree they are criminally insane and missing brains to think logically.

9. But we desperately need the 'Blame Meeting" as you Criminal Repukes so put it.
to insure that we drive a stake into the heart of you!r corrupt party once and for all, and you can't be a threat to our country ever again!

By the way, how did that "it's in the past" thingy work out for you during Clinton's term? - not so eager to "let it rest" were you, or how 'bout those plans of yours to dig it all up again and slam Hillary with it?

just wondering...

11. Yep, reminds me of Jon Stewart post-Katrina
"If you don't want to play the blame game, it's probably because YOU ARE TO BLAME!"
