I saw the puppet strings!

[Laurie!]

Did anybody see the BS speech that Iraq's interim PM Allawi gave to Congress today? Talk about political stunts! http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif That guy's only purpose was to stand up there with rose coloured glasses and make it seem like Bush was the greatest man to have ever lived. He made it seem like everything is going great in Iraq and that elections will definitely happen. He failed to mention that it's only about 4 months until they're supposed to happen and people aren't registered and there aren't even any candidates other than him...he was hand picked by the Bush administration too. http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

Any of you want an all expenses paid vacation for you and your family to Iraq? I'll pay for it if you believe the crap Allawi said today.

[R.B]

I believe him .....but...........I am not a skeptic. I believe in freedom and liberty ...it is dear and cherished to people like him and me.

So you believe that everyday life in Iraq is greatly improved and all these beheadings, kidnappings, car bombings and targeted military strikes that kill civilians are just media fabrications?

LOL, yeah Allawi loves freedom and liberty so much he abandoned his fellow Iraqi citizens for several years and moved from Iraq. Now, he's back and knows what's best for them. http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif Now, I understand why his speech today is good for Bush's campaign, but how is it good for his campaign back home? If regular Iraqis see that speech, they'll be wondering what the heck that guy is smoking!! Everything is wonderful in Iraq. http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

If you believe him, take me up on my offer...take your wife and kids over to Iraq for a vacation tomorrow. Venture out into the streets and go to a restaurant and to the market. Have a grand old time on me.

[R.B]

15 of 19 provinces in Iraq are planning the election ................four are having trouble. And .............you know that freedom is gonna be a struggle when people like you work against it.

I feel sorry for you.

Just my opinion.

I love your idea, Laurie.

By all means, you freedom loving patriot, R.B. - please, take you and your blessed family to Iraq for a nice vacation. You can celebrate all the newfound freedoms with ringing in your ears from shooting off AK-47s. I hear Iraqis have a second amendment too. You should feel right at home.

While there, please send us an update of your fabulous trip. Since I'm sure streaming video of you in a nice orange jumpsuit will follow, be sure to wave to us.

The elections are supposed to be only 4 months away. I sure as hell hope that they're at least planning them. http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif Other than Allawi, who else are they planning to be on the ballot? Allawi said that they could have elections tomorrow, that's how pathetic his speech was. Don't you think there should be candidates right now that the majority of people support and shouldn't they have a few months to actually campaign properly?

I am not working against freedom...on the contrary...you have to be willing to acknowledge mistakes in order to correct them. If Bush keeps trying to sell his "everything's going according to plan" crap, he's the one working against progress! He's willing to sabotage success in Iraq to get himself elected for a second term. That's why he's got U.S. troops surrounding places like Baghdad and Falluja, not willing to send them in until after the election. http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

Allawi is a joke and Bush's puppet and his people know it. Until you allow Iraqis to choose somebody for themselves, they'll never see freedom in sight.

You didn't take me up on my offer...you said that only 4 provinces are having trouble...will you take your wife and kids to the other 15 provinces on me? I didn't think so. http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif

[R.B]

Right........*L*

[Laurie!]

So, I guess you don't want an all expenses paid trip for you and your family to those alleged safe 15 provinces in Iraq then? I guess you don't believe that the media is lying about the negative events outnumbering the positive then huh? I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is...why won't you?

You also didn't tell me any names of the political candidates that are going to be campaigning for the elections that could be held tomorrow in Iraq if they had to be. FoxNews must be showing footage of Iraqis who will be on the ballots...who are they?

OOoh, RB, I bet you'd look cute in orange...
