Not only should we rebuild their cities, we should bend over backwards for them to make it better than before we invaded. That, and include a line item on everyone's payroll check that indicates how much of your check went into invading and rebuilding their country; that's the only way you shithead neo-cons will EVER learn - you don't fucking invade a country unless you have a VERY good reason with VERY good proof to back it up.

Lets start with your paycheck.

Funny, i was against the war from the very beginning. You and/or your douchebag buddies were the one who fucked this country up. If anything, find out who voted for Bush and make THEM pay for it. Anyone who voted for his re-election should pay double.

So we have gone from everybody seeing a line item to only Bush supporters. You backpedal pretty fast once your money is on the table.

If we're going to single me out, then yeah, lets compromise and fuck up the idiots that got us here in the first place (YOUR FUCKING SIDE).

We? I singled you out because you are more than happy to spend my and everybody elses money rebuilding Baghdad. Clearly when you need to pay up your tune changes and want others to pay for your idea. Lead by example and you may move me.

Hey, guess what, when you invade a country, especially on false pretenses, you have a moral obligation. You don't fucking destroy a whole country and leave it in ruins. So, yes, you assholes owe the Iraqi people.

I know you're a bunch of shameless sleazy neo-con assholes who would just bomb them and leave them to die, especially with all the terrorists who invaded the country AFTER we invaded them, but you can't escape your moral obligation after doing something so disgusting. Take some personal responsibility for once.

He thinks bombing the shit out of Iraq and not taking personal responsibility with the cleanup is fine. That's how all dirtbag neo-cons think.

That was part of the problem...should have been a "WAR TAX" for the Iraq and Afghanistan (and any other) war. Would have liked to see how much support was for the sham of a war if "we the people" had to pay directly for it instead of just borrowing more from China and the likes.

Yup, raise taxes during a war and make sure it's explicitly stated as a line item in your paycheck. See how much these fucking idiots support these types of wars now.

Like I said, lead by example and you may move me. Your paycheck can be the first to rebuild Baghdad. Then mine can be the second.

That would be fine. I think we should do this for more aspects of govt. Like bailing out the banks, auto-unions in detroit, defense, social programs, highway system, the list can go on and on.

Realistically, we will continue to make these mistakes as long as neo-cons exist. Maybe now is a good time to strip them of their citizenship and deport them.

Which personal responsibility is that? Proclaiming everybody should pay to rebuild baghdad then backpedal when it is their money on the line?

You singled me out, i was pretty generous to share the pain. But guess what, the moral responsibility rests with your shoulders.

I know you spout off stupid shit. But this really takes the cake. Who is a neo-con to you anyways? Is this something you can spot in the open?

Lets start with anyone who voted to re-elect George Bush. You'd have to be a TREMENDOUS asshole to do that.
