Poll question: Can't we just "RETRACT" this fucking War? Call it a mistake?
Edited on Mon May-16-05 06:44 PM by FrenchieCat
Why not? Everyone else is retracting stuff.

Since the war was based on lies, we should be able to retract it...just like Newsweek does with its stories.

Our Intelligence agencies were a "bad" source. They even changed their minds about how great their intelligence was.

I say, let's just "retract" it and call it a day.

What say yee?

3. Retracting the War is like retracting the election. They both happened.
We have to deal (never let Bush forget the war was 1) for the wrong reasons 2) planned abysmally .. and move on.

4. let's use the John McCain escape hatch
just "not agree" we're at war at all, and "not agree" 1600+ troops have died, and that's that. No war, no death.

6. Oh NO....Not Bloody Sunday McCain!
McCain said that last Sunday.

This Sunday, I thought he said it wasn't a deliberate war.....we just got it wrong....whatever the Fuck that means!

7. Must have been that Maverick John McCain.
well, we'll just have to see what he says next Sunday.

Whatever he mumbles, you can be sure....it will be breaking news. Although it may get retracted on monday.

9. Or at the Hague.....
Who ever wins the coin toss.

Sorry, let me retract that!
That's so unpatriotic...mentioning the Hague and all!

But I would like to see it!

10. I love that photo! First time I saw I did a double take
and then got the biggest grin.

I'd like to retract the last 4 plus years.
