“Barack and Hillary have made their intentions clear regarding Iraq and the war on terror. They would retreat and declare defeat,” said Romney.

Just to verify: Mitt Romney's statement implies that there are still people who think Iraq had something to do with 9/11.

Not too far a stretch coming from a guy who got 'Obama' and 'Osama' confused.


I saw a man-on-the-street interview on one of the networks' evening news programs right before the South Carolina primary. The man expressed some concern because Obama and Osama sound alike.

To this man, and others like him who get these two unrelated people confused, I say this: figure it out and don't be a fucking imbecile.

Yes, we are clearly on course to become the cheese-eating surrender monkeys of this century.

Given that in Sept 2006 65% of Republicans still believed there was a link, it seems pretty reasonable to assume a sizable portion of them still do. It's also pretty reasonable to assume that regardless of what Saddam-era Iraq had to do with terrorism, Iraq as we've fucked it up is and will continue to be a marvelous breeding ground for terrorists if left in the state it's in. I think that's more the GOP's and Romney's point regarding Iraq and its relation to the war on terror these days.
