Forever?
FTFA: All U.S. troops have to be out of Iraq by December 31, 2011

Would you prefer we pull out all troops tomorrow, and leave the country in an unstable state, trollmitter?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

POAC

Traditionally we call them "advisers" to make their presence more acceptable to political groups who don't want foreign "soldiers."

We won!

POAC: Forever?
FTFA: All U.S. troops have to be out of Iraq by December 31, 2011

Done in one.

No kidding, why is this green?

Everyone wants to leave. But if you up and go, one day I guarantee we'll need to send back troops again. Progress has, amazingly, been made. It only cost us a tidy thirteen-figure sum to do it, but the last thing you want is for Iraq to turn into another Afghanistan.

And please mods -- I'm begging you. Never greenlight another "change you can believe in" headline again. Please? Everytime I see it, a little more of my heart dries up and rots off.

Senescent Dawn: but the last thing you want is for Iraq to turn into another Afghanistan.

Um, the US is building up more forces in Afghanistan. You knew that, right?

Business as usual.

oldfarthenry: Um, the US is building up more forces in Afghanistan. You knew that, right?

I'm talking about how Afghanistan is/was politically. Ya know, lawless. There were no Al Qaeda training camps in Iraq for a reason.

And please mods -- I'm begging you. Never greenlight another "change you can believe in" headline again.

I don't like Obama and his "change" scam, but I have to admit these headlines are kind of annoying.

Meh. He made some statements about Iraq to appease the moonbats in this country. He is "in the know" now. You're going to see him change his mind on a lot of things about national security and the war on "terra" abroad. I have no problem with this, and I can't stand B. Hussein Obamao. I wouldn't use this against him, and it actually gets a +1 in his favor in my mind.

Big whoop. This is what a phased withdrawal would look like, you f*cking nimrod. You know, phased withdrawal, that thing we libtards were pushing for and many Republicans on Fark were pissing in their panties over. Although you were always too stupid to understand, nobody wanted to get all the troops out of Iraq all at once.

ZAZ: And please mods -- I'm begging you. Never greenlight another "change you can believe in" headline again.

I don't like Obama and his "change" scam, but I have to admit these headlines are kind of annoying.

/meme police

"scam?" have you seen the federal budget? it couldn't be more different than those of the previous administration. whether it's "change you can believe in" or not, it's still change.

Yes. This "change" meme is getting exceedingly boring.

Senescent Dawn: There were no Al Qaeda training camps in Iraq for a reason.

Yeah, Saddam did run a pretty tight ship.

Is there a noob mod on or something?

I'm all for pulling everyone out, but the fact is that we went over there and made a f'ing mess. Now we have to clean it up.

Diogenes: Yes. This "change" meme is getting exceedingly boring.

But you've gotta be careful... soon, complaining about the "change" meme will become boring too.

Stealing defeat from the jaws of victory!!!

Because a generation of violence is a small price to pay to prove Bush was wrong.

I'm more concerned with the tripling of the deficit and Hillary's downsizing the importance of human rights in China.

This story? Meh...not so much.

Senescent Dawn: oldfarthenry: Um, the US is building up more forces in Afghanistan. You knew that, right?

I'm talking about how Afghanistan is/was politically. Ya know, lawless. There were no Al Qaeda training camps in Iraq for a reason.

Because they called the group something else in Iraq.

So, Obama's not a secret Arab Muslim anymore?

Lundah: Would you prefer we pull out all troops tomorrow, and leave the country in an unstable state, trollmitter? the fuk alone and worry about ourselves for a change?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Domestic infrastructure. What a concept.

Diogenes: Yes. This "change" meme is getting exceedingly boring.

It was boring 2 years ago.

Submittard: Forever

FTFA: All U.S. troops have to be out of Iraq by December 31, 2011, under an agreement the Bush administration signed with the Iraqi government last year.

But no, the mods can't refuse any political headline that includes "Change you can believe in", its in their contract.

/That's right, I'm calling you out, modtard.

Diogenes: Yes. This "change" meme is getting exceedingly boring.

It's all they have. Isn't it obvious? They literally have nothing else.

As illustrated by the upcoming lame GIFS and worn out memes.

These are morans we are dealing with, keep in mind.

oldfarthenry: WE'RE JUST GOING TO MARCH OUT OF THE PLACE?
NO HELICOPTER RIDES FROM AN EMBASSY ROOF??
I WANTED A HELICOPTER RIDE!!!!
WWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!




Did someone say something about a helicopter ride?

POAC: All U.S. troops have to be out of Iraq by December 31, 2011

That is a lie. Iraq will be like Korea or Japan. We'll have people there forever. We just built a billion dollar embassy compound there. We aren't leaving.

What were they called?

DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE STILL AMERICAN SOLDIERS IN GERMANY TRUMAN farkING LIED TO US MAN

Trolly headline + Change you can believe in. Excellent formula you have there, subby.

There are still US troops in Japan, 64 years later.

We need to do this again. It'll give hollywood new ideas...

Can't wait for "Good Morning Bagdad" to come out in about 20 years...

Obama plans to bring back all the troops from Iraq by August 2010... except for the 50,000 he is leaving there forever.

Wow, Exactly the same plan as Bush & McCain's, just with Obama's name on it.

Plagiarism we can believe in.

Pulling out sucks when it feels so goooood...
Is it really that surprising that a guy who didn't know a whole lot all of a sudden changes his mind when he learns new things? To me that is Change I can Believe in

Butthurt, meet your new friend.

ZAZ: I don't like Obama and his "change" scam

No, you prefer the old, "Status Quo" scams of old.

gotcha.

someonelse: So, Obama's not a secret Arab Muslim Muslin anymore?

FTFY

I just like how people seemed to blindly believe that when Obama was elected he'd wave his magic Obama wand and the country would be awesome and all the troops would come home and unicorns would be real. It's just not how the world works.

POAC: Forever?
FTFA: All U.S. troops have to be out of Iraq by December 31, 2011


So we're just going to abandon the strategically located, billions worth of bases we built there? That's a dumb move, Obama.

/We never left Cuba,
//We never left Germany,
///We never left Japan,
////We never left Korea,
//etc.

docmattic: Diogenes: Yes. This "change" meme is getting exceedingly boring.

30 days into his administration and it has already been done to death by our freepers. Can we kill this unfunny crap with fire now, please?

Barack Obama squeezes the toothpaste tube from the middle, leaves the cap off and throws it away when it's still half-full.

3_Butt_Cheeks: Butthurt, meet your new friend.

Yes, right.

The last 3 months have been filled with copious amounts of Whaaaa! from you.

Don't kid yourself.

archichris: Stealing defeat from the jaws of victory!!!

Because a generation of violence is a small price to pay to prove Bush was wrong.

Bush is the one who signed the agreement with Iraq requiring all US troops to leave the country by the end of 2011 you nimrod.

God, you people aren't even trying to act like you're making an effort to stay informed anymore. It's nothing but talking points.

Mongo cut wood: Wow, Exactly the same plan as Bush & McCain's, just with Obama's name on it.

ok, I figure you are an idiot or attempting sarcasm.

In either case, research, investigate. Don't just parrot someone else's troll as fact.

please.

Yup, you nailed it. Moonbat tears will flow once again. No impeachment for W., Gitmo stays open as other countries stop returning phone calls when they figure out they're not going to be housing the islamic branch of the boy scouts, Iraq will continue, Afghanistan will garner more troops, the first hot-pursuit ventures of our troops into Pakistan will cause outrage, and Iran and North Korea will launch "satellites" that both fall 10 miles short of New York City. Interesting times ahead.
