Rove-Why We Can't Leave Iraq - Tyrants Would Laugh At Us!

[kpete]

Presidential adviser Karl Rove said Saturday that the Bush administration will not pull American troops out of Iraq until victory is achieved, despite the growing number of Democrats urging a withdrawal.

Abandoning Iraq now would signal to U.S. allies that America can't be trusted, Rove said during a Republican fundraiser at Bowling Green State University in Ohio.

"Tyrants in the Middle East would laugh at our failed resolve," he said. "To retreat before victory would be a reckless act."

1. So he thinks invading an innocent country

has earned our trust?

Good heavens, they are really reaching with this nonsense.

Hey KKKarl, how about DIPLOMACY instead of military force? Maybe that will earn some trust.

2. Uh, Karl......

We're laughing at you anyway...

3. More proof that his reputation as a genius is not true. n/t

11. Since he was speaking at a Republican fundraiser, he might

have his message just right. This kind of logic would appeal to them and make them give up the big bucks in an attempt to keep Republicans in charge. "Look what would happen if those Democrats had their way and we pulled our troops out of Iraq. Tyrants would laugh at us. Can't let that happen."

4. ahem.... Karl...

A. They've BEEN laughing at us for years, ever since we were dumb enough to elect that incompetent buffoon you work for; and

B. WE'RE the tyrants, now.

sadly,

5. Which tyrants? The ones in the Pentagon?

Or the ones on Foggy Bottom?

6. This is a perfect illustration

of how the ability to plot political maneuvers is not necessarily the ability to plot military maneuvers. The guy has no military experience and probably has never listened to a military strategist. R*ve should NEVER be allowed to talk about anything outside the politics of domestic issues. But then--if they let him talk, he creates more fodder for us.

7. So Rove is willing to let the fanatics' sense of humor control us?

That's so, so whupp ass-lite.

9. Rove, Rove, Rove....

...no one is laughing at us. Peace-loving people the world over shed tears of grief because of us, not laughter.

10. I guess the dickhead doesn't know people are already laughing at us.

[Nutmegger]

12. Why would they laugh at us

when we're finished destroying every single hostile country???

[Bigmack]

13. It's worse than "tyrants laughing at us"....

After this goatfuck, it's "Tyrants now know we can only field one small army and our weapons can be defeated by irregular troops".

We showed tyrants we can be easily fooled into bankrupting ourselves fighting the wrong war, too.

14. why is this pasty white ass, no military experience,

non-elected piece of shit even speaking of the situation in Iraq? this little teet sucking moran wants to support our troops? drag him off and drop his pasty pale butt in southern Iraq. good luck MF!

15. Memo to Karl: Milosovic's cell is vacant and needs a tenant.

Laugh at that.

[Disturbed]

16. "until victory is achieved"

What exactly does this asshole define as victory?

US Troops and Mercs will remain in Iraq for at least 3 more years unless the Sh'ites decide otherwise.

17. Rove remembering his tormented boyhood, no doubt

The way he handles power is the way of somebody who is used to feeling stepped on and bullied. He has the perfect resentment of the bullied boy, now seeking his revenge on the world that laughed at him. Through proxies, of course.
