Poll question: Iraq Civil War: How Soon Before RW/Bushco Sez...
Edited on Mon Nov-27-06 03:52 PM by stopbush
"We've been calling it a civil war for some time...well before the election, in fact."

You know they'll adopt the latest media line and say that they're the ones who have been saying it since
"well before the election."

The question is, when?

They = any administration person or RW talking head/pundit.

1. Saying what since before the election? What's "it"?

2. Fixed it. "It" was in the header but it got clipped when I posted the poll.
The question now appears in the text box.

3. Very soon, but it will come from Tony SnowJob,
and he'll call it something like "a domestic insurrection" so he can weasel around the fact that they specifically said it wasn't a civil war, but that it was something sort of like one. :puke:

6. They CAN'T - it means the IWR is inoperable and there is no MISSION for a civil war.
That is why it was crucial for Democrats to state unequivocally that Iraq was in civil war when it first became known a few months after Iraq's Dec 2005 elections.

7. Barry McCaffrey on Hardball today: "I've been calling it a low-grade civil war
for the last 18 months."

There's your whore.
