Translated: we didn't listen to Powell or any general. We were idiots.

Originally Posted By Capstan I can undestand one man, like a president, being a complete blithering idiot, but how is it virtually the entire US Congress was equally blind. At the first mention of war with Iraq, I foresaw this debacle. How could they not? I wonder if the carnage taking place now, and the carnage to come, wasn't their secret goal all along. We're being led by fools.

Originally Posted By Capstan Douglas, our elected leaders didn't need generals to warn them of the futility of the war. Anyone with half a grain of common sense could have seen it. The war, even before it began, was counterproductive to our goals. It didn't require a political scientist or military strategist to understand that. It required a brain.~ Beaumandy, I don't see the difference between a terrorist's mouthpiece and a government's flunky. They're interchangable.

Perhaps if you went to the Middle East and helped dig graves for awhile, your muscles would develop, and your words would carry more weight among the knowledgeable.
