Poll: Sending troops to Iraq a mistake By Susan Page, USA TODAY WASHINGTON — Most Americans now say that sending U.S. troops to Iraq was a mistake, a USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup Poll finds. For the first time, a majority also says that the war there has made the nation *less* safe from terrorism. The survey taken Monday through Wednesday shows a turnaround in views toward the war in less than a month. Continued violence in Iraq and questions about the war's justification apparently are eroding support even as the U.S. moves to turn over sovereignty to an interim Iraqi government next week. (Related: Complete poll results) It is the first time since Vietnam that a majority of Americans has called a major deployment of U.S. forces a mistake. When the war in Iraq began last year, the public by three-to-one said sending troops wasn't a mistake. Just three weeks ago, 58% still held that view. Now, *54%* say it was a mistake. That's the beauty in being a Monday-morning quarterback. Hindsight is always 20/20. Are people too stupid to see that it's not Iraqis we're fighting? Are they too stupid to realize that hard-core Islamic fundamentalists are trying to take over each country one-by-one, obtain nuclear weapons, control the oil in the Middle East, and then crush us economically and militarily? The influx of al Qaeda is a response of desperation. They know that permanent US bases smack-dab in the Middle East would be a direct threat to their plan of converting the World to Islam...or killing those who resisted. |

So now it's The Domino Theory all over again ... can't you morons ever learn? The most dangerous "hard core fundamentalists" on the planet are in and around the White House. Rick |

Rick I guess Rick has proven that the answer to my "are-they-(liberals)-too-stupid" questions...is *yes*. BTW--The Domino Theory (as it applied to Vietnam) was the work of Democrats...Eisenhower and Johnson...and was based upon another Democrat's (Wilson's) idea of "keeping the World safe for Democracy". The difference now? *We* were attacked in *our* country. Get it? |

Thanks for proving my point ... you morons simply cannot exist outside the framework of a "party" or some other deity on which to ride through your miserable existence. Are you incapable of looking at a policy or position on its own merits, or lack thereof, or do you have some unbending need to follow the party line regardless of reality or reason? The concept of the debunked domino theory is the BS you parroted and that is what I slammed you for. I could care less who or what previously used the theory as an excuse for political misadventures, it really doesn't matter. The point may be a bit too fine for those of you who are scared ****less of any position you haven't had fed to you on Rush Limbo but not all of us who despise the cretin in the White House, his policies, and his handlers, are "liberals" or any other codeword you guys depend upon so badly in order to recognize your herd members.

I don't recall any Commies blowing up buildings in NY. I also don't recall ever seeing the Communists trying to take over real estate that played a vital role in the viability of our economy. |

Here you are calling liberals stupid and you fail to realize that Eisenhower was a Republican. BTW among of the chief proponents of The Domino Theory, and in particular applying it to Southeast Asia, are two Democrats (deeply under cover, or perhaps 'in the closet' would be an appropriate phrase) named Henry Kissinger and Richard Nixon. You may have heard of them. Good work in discrediting the neoconservative right, Comrade Nobby! DSK |
