Reportedly Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi was booed by AIPAC during
her speech there when she said the US needs to get out of Iraq. This
Israeli lobby wants us to stay in Iraq whether the vast majority of
Americans want us out or not, and they do. They want us in Iran
whether that makes any sense or is legal or not, and it doesn't and
isn't. They want more US military spending, less spending on our own
poor and needy people, Social Security privatized and cut back, no
help to America's 780,000 homeless people including 300,000 veterans,
etc., etc. They really don't care about the United States of America
or our people. All they care about is the Israelis and the rich Jewish
Americans who support them. And they completely control the Republican
Party and the Bush administration. John McCain, Rudy Giuliani or Newt
Gingrich would continue to carry out the Bush administration's
policies to the letter, which have been coming right from Jerusalem
for the past six years. Far from being patriotic these Republican and
Neocon policies from AIPAC are treasonous to the United States of
America, our people and Constitution. See http://www.rense.com/general76/aipc.htm

That's because they know that Bush was right when Saddam attacked us
on 9/11 wioth his WMD's. Only delusional lefties who hate Bush are
against the war.

Most people when polled state that they want Bush around for another 8
years.

One sure sign of insanity is the denial of reality.

http://www.pollingreport.com/iraq.htm

Newsweek poll - 28 percent want "stay the course"
USA Today - 28 percent want "stay the course"

I'm not sure that 28 percent constitutes a "vast majority".

The problem with Republicans is not just that they are all so
dishonest and immoral, evidently they can't do first grade math
either.

how the sample is selected. I have seen polls taken
the same week on the same subject with vastly
different results.

Nevertheless, anything polled for Newsweek/DCPost,
is sure to be weighted heavily to the to the left.

not to mention they use of cluster bomblets, mines, and phosphorous

Let me see if I understand. Israel has 200 nukes and could

The John Birch Society calls McCain's Baghdad Market Visit "a
disgustingly sick joke."

"...they had been made unwilling victims of a disgustingly sick joke."
-- John F. McManus, President of The John Birch Society.

Merchants Challenge McCain's Cheery Assessment of Conditions in
Baghdad
By John F. McManus
Published: 2007-04-04 15:42
ARTICLE SYNOPSIS:

Senator John McCain led several other members of Congress on a
fact-finding trip to Baghdad. After touring the central market place,
he and the others issued upbeat reports about the great progress our
troops are making. The next day, the area's merchants angrily told
reporters that McCain's description of the situation was totally
inaccurate.

Follow this link to the source article: "McCain Wrong On Iraq
Security, Merchants Say"

COMMENTARY:

It happened to be April 1st when the Arizona contender for the GOP
presidential nomination donned a Kevlar vest and went for a walk
around Baghdad's central market. There were plenty of U.S. reporters
and photographers documenting the event. And when McCain offered his
rosy assessment about the "encouraging signs" he claimed to see on
April Fool's Day, his remarks were dutifully sent throughout
America.

One day after McCain's remarks reached the merchants whose market
place has been a regular target of suicide bombers, several complained
bitterly. Shopkeeper Jassim Faiyad told reporters that the senator's
entourage was accompanied by an extra detail of more than 100 soldiers
in armored vehicles, attack helicopters circling overhead, military
personnel directing traffic away from the area, and sharpshooters
aiming weapons from rooftops. He said, "They paralyzed the market when
they came. This was only for the media."

The Shorja market place has been attacked so often - more than six
times in the past year - that numerous merchants have closed their
businesses, and customers who still dare to frequent the area have
been forced to alter their normal shopping habits. Rug merchant Aboud
Sharif Kadhoury, whose shop suffered damage in a February bombing, and
who incurred shrapnel wounds himself, said of the visitors, "They
asked about our conditions, and we told them the situation was bad."

Ali Youssef used to sell glassware from a sidewalk stand near Mr.
Kadhoury's shop. He eagerly countermanded what McCain reported,
"Everybody complained to them. This area is very dangerous. They
cannot secure it." He lost everything in the February attack.

McCain and the congressmen who accompanied him dared to paint a
remarkably different picture. Indiana Congressman Mike Pence told
reporters, "The most deeply moving thing for me was to mix and mingle
unfettered." He obviously didn't feel "fettered" by the Kevlar body
armor he wore at the time.

Another merchant named Abu Samer assessed the event and McCain's
commented, "He is just using this visit for publicity." Offering a
further opinion of McCain's motives, he added, "They just take a photo
of him at our market and they will just show it in the United States.
He will win in America and we will have nothing."

None of the Baghdad merchants knew that in America, April 1st is
the day when Americans play jokes on each other. Had any been aware of
that traditional practice, they might have figured out that they had
been made unwilling victims of a disgustingly sick joke.

Workers from McCain's 'safe' Baghdad market murdered

Twenty-one Shia market workers were bound and shot dead north of
Iraq's capital. The victims came from the same Baghdad market visited
the previous day by Sen. John McCain, who said that the American
security plan in the capital was starting to show signs of progress.
McCain took a heavily guarded tour of Baghdad's oldest market,
purportedly to prove that point. Vendors denied the market was safe.
It is not clear if the murdered vendors actually met McCain during the
jaunt he took with Sen. Lindsey Graham and Reps. Mike Pence and Rick
Renzi.

That depends how the questions were phrased and
the manner in which they are asked. Then there is
how the sample is selected. I have seen polls taken
the same week on the same subject with vastly
different results.
Nevertheless, anything polled for Newsweek/DCPost,
is sure to be weighted heavily to the to the left.
I think he's spreding more leftist lies We don't need polls to tell that
everyone loves Bush and supports the liberation of Iraq. Most are willing to
come home in body bags or with limbs blown off, that's why patriotic enlistment
is at an all time high.

Bush is the greatest president America's ever had, the most popular too.

Liberals are liars when they say otherwise.

The trouble with Liberals is that they love Bush. Same with Canadians.

That new one they have up there is said to be like the rest of them, a gutless
cock sucking socialist who has handed out $Billions to those Frenchies.

The only real conservatives are Americans. Canadians should be our slaves.

They didn't help us in Iraq in the beginning and they won't help us now.


Maybe after Iraq we'll invade and take what's rightfully ours, the oil.
