an old subject for question.....

[callmeslick]

Probably folks would go along with it...maybe, even me.
However, this thought haunts....It coulda and maybe shoulda been done by air?
Why put more folks at risk?

potential collateral damage adding to the already common impression of the US as a bunch of assholes within the Middle East.

[callmeslick]

They might try....they haven't so far....other contracts exist for future sales to others.

um, see Venezuela's long-term deals, for starters, and Mexico's.

Pretty much that's your excuse to do nothing. Nothing begets Nothing. What I have proposed costs comparatively nothing and could resolve many problems now and in the future.

So, for the record..."You propose, do nothing" ?

what is your proposal, and how does it resolve ANY problems?

[Pudfark]

"What is your proposal?"
I've already presented it.

What's yours?
So far, it's been nothing.

[callmeslick]

proposal for what? The thread is/was about Iraq, you somehow blabbered something about an oil pipeline which would accomplish nothing(has been proven by experts to be the case). What are you blabbering about now? What proposal did you put forth? I see nothing, but the usual stupid use of language.

[Pudfark]

I see you avoiding...again.
You obviously have nothing to contribute hear/here.
We'll mark ya down fer an "abstain", which in yer case would be the gravy on yer T-shirt.

[callmeslick]

care to post your question in English?

[Pudfark]

I believe your lack of comprehension is the leading cause of your persistent prevarication and confusion.
Certainly, others believe it too.

Have a nice day...

I see, you had no point. You had no question. At least you aren't going to have the balls to come on here and call for a repeat of past stupidity. As I wrote elsewhere:"...and now the experts come out of the TV woodworks: Bremer, Kristol, Cheney.....forgawdsakes, Dick Freaking Cheney? He wants to help the nation figure out what to do in Iraq? Dick Cheney? He should be publicly flogged for getting us involved whatsoever, and the rest of that neocon crowd should be hung from DC lampposts by the testicles. Do these clowns understand that we're still dealing with the fact they made the DUMBEST decision in US foreign policy history??"

That includes Hillary too.
