Good gravy!! "Success is not no violence" ???? "Acceptable levels of violence"???
What in holy hell is he talking about today? Have his speech writers all resigned and he is writing these lines himself? (En crayola?) Success is not no violence! Success is a COMFORTABLE level of violence! :crazy:


'But slowly but surely, the truth will be known. Either we'll succeed, or we won't succeed. And the definition of success as I described is sectarian violence down. Success is not, no violence. There are parts of our own country that have got a certain level of violence to it. But success is a level of violence where the people feel comfortable about living their daily lives. And that's what we're trying to achieve.'

2. It is difficult to believe that this Silverspoon Sociopath

6. Hey come on now. He was a legend on campus...
He had the job as social chairman in charge of ordering kegs, arbitrator of cool, and keeping the party going. That was of course when he was not busy with his duties as rush chairman at the frat-house.

Seriously though; how many MBA's have you worked with that are too stupid even know when to come out of the rain? There's tons of them...

5. What makes this guy tick?
I'd really like to know. What the fuck motivates his insane stubbornness about this miserable piece of real estate 8,000 miles away from mainland America? Does greed alone cause this kind of behavior? Can he be declared insane, hopefully and removed from office? And what the good God Almighty makes the idiot republicans continue to support this morally bereft would be dictator? Do they want to live under the thumb of the one party state?

7. But, but ... that could leave Iraq living with as much violence as in ...
Virginia! ;-)

Yeah, in reality, success is not avoiding a civil war, it's in keeping the war civil. ;-)

What a load of C.R.A.P. (Crazy Republican Argumentative Pap)!
