Maybe after Tuesday's Election, the Republicans can admit making 2800 + fatal mistakes in Iraq ?

Ha, and admit the emporer has no clothes? I'll be waiting to see what happens, hopefully the Dems will kick some ass!

I think we are voting for Do No Harm.  Once the Republicans loose power it will be harder for them to foul things up.  We will still have to fix the messes we have.

The arrogant republicans have learned a lesson from this election.

No if it is good it is the Republicans doing, if it is bad it is Clinton and the Democrats fault.

As the failures of the Bush Administration become common knowledge and Republicans are leaving their support behind for the President like rats leaving a sinking ship, these service men and women now feel safe to tell the real story of what's happening over there in Iraq.  I've been seeing them on news programs for a couple of weeks now.  They ARE the front lines, the ones who really know what's happening over there.  I haven't read your answers yet, but it wouldn't surprise me to find some Republicans who will accuse them of being disgruntled misfits, it would fit their party line to accuse them of that, rather than face the truth.\n\n~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\nOkay, so far I've seen "shady agendas" and someone else calling them "liberals."  Close enough for government work.

there is a funny thing that we've been hearing "this week" from the corporate media...(I think the two brain surgeons above me heard it too.. their tales are wagging ) "It's going to be a close race"? . two weeks ago in our United States Of Amnesia .. it was going to be a Democrat land slide with as much as a 30 point advantage in some places.. within 7 days and no real appreciable Republican "victory" except for Mr. Kerry's ill received pun... they are all of a sudden "going to keep the house" (Bob Novak) "Looks Like they're even going to pick up several seats this time around" (S. Hannity) and this one is the best "The Democrats have botched things so badly in the past several years that Democrat incumbants should be happy to keep their jobs" (Bill O'really ?)\n.. so yes the fix is in .. and the gears of the evil Sith Lords are once again turning, oiled by tax payers dollars and the blood of innocence, spilled on far away desert sands....

I"m not a Republican, but I can tell you that they won't be pleased.  Basically, this just goes to show you that the three or four years we've been in Iraq have done exactly what the Dems thought it would...establish a new government opposed to American interference in that government while also increasing anti-American sentiment across the globe.  This amnesty for those who kill Americans will be a big kick in the arse for the Republican Party.

Come on...We both know it wasn't ever even meant to be a joke.  You are far too smart to believe otherwise.\n\nBut to answer your question,  The GOP should capitalize on Kerry's inability to admit when he makes an err.

Hopefully they wont.  On election day many will be too busy getting stoned, sleeping in, or they just wont know what day it is.  They will be too too busy saying stupid stuff like "Bush Sucks Dude" or they wont know how to punch their chad all the way through if they vote.  Then, of course, they will say the republicans cheated.

If there is sanity left in this country, republicans will be out after Tuesday.

He stumbled over his words, and he's apologized for it. But some people like beating a dead horse, because they think it makes them look smart. Or that attacking a Democrat for a slip of the tongue against soldiers will make people forget that Republicans have consistently voted against raising troop wages, have cut funding for veterans hospitals, and can't even make sure that the troops have adequate armor, not to mention continually extending soldier's tours of duty and keeping them in a dangerous war that is going nowhere.

Republicans...be sorry????\n\nNot until the end of days.

Did Alex B GED just claim that the GOP "solved a genocide" in Iraq in his post? I think the phrase is "created a genocide". Iraq officials now claim 150,000 Iraqis have been killed by insurgents. Gosh, the Iraqis must be SO thankful we are there!

had we known that the "supposed inteligence" collected and presented was BS, No.\nAsk the Republicans and the Democrats in both houses whom Voted Yes, overwelmingly. \nNow, they would tell you the same thing, (if they are not busy playing "footsies" with each other One More Time).

Look, the Bush people already know they screwed the pooch in Iraq, so their only hope is to run down the clock and handoff to what will inevitably be a Democratic president. That president will have no choice but to extricate him/herself from the steaming pile of dung left in Baghdad.\n\nThen, the GOP will re-write history (in their usual, creepy Orwellian way) and it will forever be re-told as the Dems losing Iraq, thus insuring that Repubs keep possession of the (American) flag.\n\nI am just cynical or what?

The problem with your suggestion is that democrats can't win elections with it; and they are solely focused on the negative simply to win their November elections.  Positive thinking would only hurt their cause and morale of Iraqis and even our troops is not of their interest - winning is....pretty sad isn't it.

I don't think it will be the end quite yet. With Republican control, there will have to be unrefutable evidence of the "name your issue" that has crossed the Bush Administration's path to get them to actually do something about it. There is mounting evidence against him in several areas, but not black and white outstanding evidence; at least not good enough for them as of yet. It is only a matter of time, but if the Democrats wrestle control in November, the risk of this happening will increase; however, they will have to be careful and do that only with credence, or they will be accused of just wanting to get back at Bush. When that day happens, I will be ecstatic.
