How much proof of a failure of a plotted course needs to exist? How many people does it take,American citizens who know the truth about corporate agendas,palm-greasing,and alterior motivations,to alert those in power that their plans are laid bare,are known?Isn't it high time to end the masquerade and to finally "fess up" to monumental mistakes that are killing thousands of people on both sides of "the fence"? "Enough is enough" may be cliche,but it is superlatively appropriate for an action that should have never been initiated to begin with by the Bush Administration.An action built upon lies becomes the bigger and more monstrous lie when our troop's and Iraqi lives are sacrificed in favour of the extreme effort to keep those lives in place.What would our founding fathers think,I wonder? ********** [115035:100607] L.H., Louisville, KY Reject the Petraeus Report. If the general is not guilty of betrayal, then he should have told the truth of our involvement in Iraq and not gloss over Bush's failure there. Wearing a general's uniform does not make Petraeus a patriot and chocolate syrup cannot make this horse manure of a criminally misleading report candy. ********** [203651:093007] A.C., Seal Beach, CA I can't respectfully comment on this lying military A. If he was in Vietnam with me when I fought there, he might have accidently gotten "fragged". Of course they screened him and several others but he was the one they knew would follow their line of lies. ********** [155443:092907] a.m., Sterling Heights, MI We keep throwing money at this "middle east" situation and it only continues to get worse. We have caused more deaths in the middle east than Saddam could have in the next 40 years of his life. The terrorists of 9/11 (all but 1) came from Saudi Arabia. 50% of the suicide bombers going into Iraq are Saudi Arabians. Why didn't we go to war with Saudi Arabia- they were the instigators of 9/11 and continue terrorist attacks. But the Saudi's are friends of the Bush family. Heck, Bush even sold them 20 billion dollars in weapons (which will probably be used against us). Now that we've armed and trained the Iraq army- we will be responsible for every future atrocity they cause- whether we're still occupying Iraq or not....Has anyone thought about this? What could all the money we've been spending in the middle east have done for us at home? We could have funded social security for decades to come. We could have funded a health care plan for the poor. We could have improved the quality of education for u.s. citizens. We could have ousted the more than 20 million ILLEGAL ALIENS (not illegal immigrants- immigration is legal, people jumping the border is illegal)_When will our politicians grow a set and say "enough is enough". How many more lives lost? How much more money wasted? When will you finally stop the madness? ********** [025121:092607] m.h., Inkster, MI It is not that I am anti-war by nature. I just oppose this war because it is too costly--in lives(US and foreign), in fiscal cost and our National reputation. We are deminishing our national security and the chances of Mid eastern peace at great cost to our selves. It is not logical that this war continue much longer. ********** [232144:092507] R.H., Bakersfield, CA vote = Yes That you for doing this! ********** [093536:092507] R.H., Bakersfield, CA That you for doing this! ********** [055725:092507] b.b., Somerville, MA i will not vote until our troops are out of Iraq, out of Iran and the military adventures have stopped ********** [131513:092407] k.g., Tucson, AZ thank you! ********** [125528:092407] J.B., Columbus, OH Congress-Why are you so afraid of Moveon.Org? You peoply are not Americans-Your either a Republican or a Democrat, there are no more Americans in Congress. You people make me sick to my stomach. ********** [071435:092407] T.L., Atlanta, GA Stop the foolishness already! ********** [043220:092407] C.V., Mount Holly, NJ Too bad for Petraeus: as honorable as he may be, the war was based on false premises hiding the real purpose - oil. Therefore all actions after the invasion by US are fruit of a poisoned tree. We 'll never own Iraq, though we did break it. As to the ends justifying the means, where are the "war brides?" A wicked war generates no lasting bond between cultures such as marriage! ********** [041958:092407] j.a., Bronx, NY I DONT BELIEVE THE CASE GEN BETRAYUS JUST MADE TO CONG. BOUT SURGE AND KEEPING OUR TROOPS IN FAILED PHONEY MISSION IRAQ. I ALSO DEMAND a.NEW INVESTG. INTO THE 911 DECEPTION. THERE IS A MOUNTAIN OF EVID. TO PROVE WE HAVE BEEN LIED TO ABOUT WHO OUR REAL ENEMY IS. AND WHO REALLY KILLED ALL OF OUR FELLOW AMERICANS. SEE TERROR STORM ON YOU TUBE.... ********** [041737:092407] R.S., Boise, ID If you let them get away with this, they will think they can nuke Iran. It has to stop NOW. ********** [041721:092407] L.S., New York, NY It is so sad that the American people keep getting fooled by this Admenestration. But it is more disconserting that the American people's representatives go along with the Pres. They must know better.It is not important that I list all the lies the Adm has told ,we all know what they are. If the Democrats do not persue these outlaws they will not get my vote. ********** [041001:092407] c.c., Cleveland, OH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ALL OF YOU.......STOP GIVING BUSH MONEY FOR IRAQ WHEN WE HAVE SO MANY IN POVERTY AND LIVING ON THE STREETS OF DOWNTOWN CLEVELAND. I MYSELF AM ON SSI AND AM EXPECTED TO LIVE ON $623/mo PLUS $10 (YES TEN DOLLARS) OF FOOD STAMPS A MONTH. I AM A WHITE FEMALE, 60 YEARS OF AGE WITH A PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDER WHICH PREVENTS ME FROM WORKING. I AM DIVORCED WITH ONE GROWN CHILD. I AM NOT "MILKING THE SYSTEM", I AM TRYING TO SURVIVE HERE". MY HAT IS OFF TO MR. VOINOVICH. ********** [040306:092407] D.G., Olympia, WA It's time for the lies to stop. Cut off funding for the unnecessary occupation of Iraq. There are no REAL terrorists, just Bush's boogeyman. BRING OUR CHILDREN HOME. Support our troops the right way. ********** [040252:092407] B.H., Port Townsend, WA ENOUIGH! ********** [040239:092407] H.C., Aurora, CO Those of you in congress have allowed the WH to show distain for the American people, our constitution, our treasury, our infrastructure and, most of all, the death of American troops and Iraqi civilians (including women and children). You have abrogated your constitutional authority and allowed unprincipled, immoral, unethical thugs to take over our country to do with as they please. How do you sleep at night? ********** [040144:092407] R.B., North Adams, MA It is about time for all REAL AMERICANS to get us out of Iraq.Don't let the hawks talk you into keeping us in this disaster...Keep our troops alive and safe, bring them home..If you allow the President to con you again, none of you deserve to be in office..Do you have the guts to say No..I wonder. Are you a politician or pro America ********** [040115:092407] D.W., Chandler, AZ Please end the mess in Iraq NOW. It is another Vietnam with no purpose. Lets please have no more legs and arms blown off of our sons, daughters, husbands, wives, fathers, sisters, etc., and no more body bags - from the U.S. or the Iraqis! ********** [040108:092407] c.w., Peaks Island, ME With all due respect, General Petraeus's testimony could have been predicted, if not pre-scripted. He is a military man put in place to reflect the position of the administration. To date, despite some expected improvements, given the increase in personnel on the ground, this war continues to be a disaster and a danger to our troops, our citizens, the Iraqi people, and the rest of the world. The only responsible and intelligent position for our congress to take is to cut the funding for anything but redeployment home, as quickly and efficiently as possible. I don't think any informed person believes that greater chaos would result, when the whole country is in chaos already. John Bolton told the truth when he said that we intend to have Iraq as the center of our presence in the mideast. Clearly the present strategy acieves that goal at huge cost to our country, our troops and the rest of the world, particularly the Iraqi people. I urge you to use your power to cut all funding that isn't aimed at getting us out of this deadly mess. ********** [040036:092407] E.H., Fort Worth, TX We need to discontinue throwing money and bodies of American soldiers at this endless war! We got into this mess based on lies from the Administrations and we are still there on the same foundation of lies and mis-informations. We need out--on a staged withdrawal over a year or two max. ********** [040011:092407] D.K., Madison, WI Wait another six months...wait another six months...wait another six months. How many years of the OIL (Operation Iraqi Liberation) war has it been? Lies to get into war. Lies to keep the mess we've made from blowing up in the face of the perpetrators, all the while letting our duty-bound young soldiers suffer and die, letting our not-so-clearly-duty-bound National Guard suffer and die, weakening our country militarily, financially and morally, and devastating Iraq. We are all being played, and played, and played. How much more are you going to take? ********** [035925:092407] G.M., Montebello, CA sounds like Colin Powell all over again, same lies and rhetoric.......let'not be fooled again, there is not progress in Iraqi, nor will there ever be, matter will only continue to get worse, look back on Vietname, history repeating itself again. there is not thing to show for improve or progess in Iraqi, no continuous running water, bad swerage, no electricity other then a few hours a day, no employment, health care, sundown curfew,, no open continous public education, unstable government, massive bombings, killings,,,,,, sectarian battles and division, $500billion tax payers monies spend and for what is there to show for it, other then WAR PROFITS for Haliburton , K.B. Root , Bechel and other of Bushes and Cheney's cronies.... the most heartbreaking think is over 3700 of our younger soilders killed and over 30,000 thousand more wounded , maned and lives disrupted..... PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS FARCE WAR........ PULL OUT TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME......... ********** Go Back
