And I’m sure the 50,000 Canadians who died in the war appreciate your sense of humor.

Say, is that Woodstock in the corner? What’s he doing in the army?

And the private looks like Beetle Bailey.

scotty, you missed it - you’e the joke here.

The Sad Sack was created by Sgt. George Baker, who was KIA in Italy.

I think he made his debut in either Stars and Stripes or Yank.

In regards to that infantile joke you posted,( par for the course ) Canada joined the war long before the US did….and go look up the Dieppe Raid on Wiki.

If you can pull yourself away from spouting hatred long enough

OBAMBI again

The last time we took the advice of the generals to send more and more troops…it was called Vietnam.

is that what they mean when they say an “Army of One’?

Obama is a butcher, a silky killer far more deadly and threatening to peace than the Taliban, Al Quaida,Iran and the murderous Israelis put together.How many more dead Iraqi,Afghani and Pakistani women and children will it take to slake the American president’s thirst for blood? How many millions does the US have to murder before she will be glutted? Will anything make Americans feel safe and secure?

Doesn’t a war have TWO armies? When was the last time a taliban soldier dragged you out of your house and into the street and arrested you?

scotty, google Juno Beach, Royal 22e régiment, Dieppe and Ypres so you’ll go to bed tonight a bit less dumb (figure of speech; se coucher un peu moins niaiseux).

My boyfriend has a cousin in Afghanistan right now, fighting the war your “war president” started. His grandfather was in WW2 and my grandfather was in WW1.

For a century we helped to get europe out of its messes and now we have to pick up after republicans.

Might do well to remember that Cheney and Rumsfeld sent our troops into Afghanistan, and Iraq, without the equipment, or manpower, they needed to do the job in wars that Bush shouldn’t have started. The generals who knew what to do were ignored, now we’re paying the price, and it isn’t easy to pick up the pieces so badly scattered by the previous morons in charge.

Too bad we can’t trust either side for the truth…

HQ, let’s be sure to remember that we were in Afghanistan before we were in Iraq. George W. Bush sent us there. We’ve been there ever since. Obama did not get us in there. He wanted to divert resources to Afghanistan from Iraq because that’s where we started out in our fight against al Qaeda. If we can’t get bin Laden and al Qaeda by being in Afghanistan, we should get our troops out of there while still finding ways to help rebuild what we so effectively destroyed there.

The mission is bin Laden, not the Taliban.

Why we can’t win in Afghanistan:

^ seems to me cdward didn’t claim Bush said “The mission is bin Laden, not the Taliban”, cdward is saying it.
