Chart of rising gas prices

JD The Jazz Doctor · Grand Poobah

this is a war with no end in site, no victory, no established calm to let our democracy take hold of the hearts of the people and to take hold of the oil we went to war for. smile

I've said it before, I'll say it again, and I'll probably say it for the next forty years.

The war was over and we were victorious a month after it started.

Where we're failing is in sticking around and trying to fix what we broke. As far as I'm concerned we can act like any other country would and pull out at any time. Our job was done when Saddam was knocked from power.

Let me repeat. WE WON THE WAR IN IRAQ!

I'm with you JD. Let's pull out now and let it fall into chaos. It's not our problem. We did what we went to do.

Looking at that chart just kills me. To think we were paying $1.10 for gas only seven years ago!

How could it. We're still there being shot at every day.

My point is, we COULD have left years ago. Most countries would have. Actually, most countries would have seized the land and claimed it as their own. We're the only country that feels the need to prop an enemy back up on it's feet before we leave.
