Props To Obama On Iraq

Props to U.S. President Barack Obama for his decision to bring home the remaining U.S. troops stationed in Iraq by Christmas.
“After nearly nine years, America’s war in Iraq will be over,” Obama said. “The coming months will be a season of homecomings. Our troops in Iraq will definitely be home for the holidays.”

Lindsey Graham: Let’s Invade Pakistan

We wrote earlier this month about U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham’s slavish devotion to America’s “military-industrial complex,” criticizing him for sounding “alarmist rhetoric whenever someone dares to question the colossal price tag associated with our various foreign engagements.”

WE GOT BIN LADEN’S DRIVER … YIPPEE

FITSNews – August 7, 2008 – The latest installment of America’s thoroughly-unimpressive war on terror is the conviction of Osama bin Laden’s driver, some guy whose name we can’t pronounce who probably had about as much to do with the 9/11 terrorist attacks as any of thousands of people [...]
