Lindsay Graham stupid statement

[dancingme]

From TPM Cafe (TalkingPointsMemo.com)

Lindsay Graham: "If we were doing so bad in Iraq, why do soldiers return time and time again?"

Yes, Lindsay Graham just said that. I've never heard anything so log-stupid in my adult-life.

And right after that, he added:

"What we're seeing in Iraq is the most successful counterinsurgency in the history of the world."
He's speaking on the Senate floor right now.

Vietnam...

2. Well, gosh...consider the source

Is he capable of anything else?

3. That one made baby Jesus cry

He seems to be in a contest with all the other fine Republic Senators for the Doltie Award, the prize for the stupidest statement ever uttered on the floor of that august institution.

This one might just do it for him. Go, Lindsay. Go away.

5. It's either willful ignorance or

political cover for Bush to slime his way after office with V-I Day Again...

6. ...five rugs for five bucks...

It should be carved on his tombstone.

7. oh geez, everytime I see or hear Lindsay

I scream at the TV and say shut up. Geez, don't these jerks get it yet, how many more have to die and get wounded for lies.

9. They ALL return home, it is how they are flown home that is a problem

In other words, if they are flying back in a flag draped coffin or in business class. Show me some political progress with the Iraqi Parliment and then we will talk about the surge working.

10. Iraq is a resort, like Hawaii

or Bermuda. That's why they return again and again! :evilgrin:
