Pissypants: "WE'LL GET OUT OF IRAQ WHEN THE GENERALS SAY IT'S TIME"
Edited on Tue Apr-18-06 12:21 PM by Proud2BAmurkin
RePUKES are saying the generals who say Iraq is a disaster are hurting "civilian control of the military."

What do they call it when Little Lord Pissypants dodges the question by saying we'll get out when the generals say the mission is accomplished?

But Mr. Bush was emphatic in stating that the decision on troop levels will be made by American commanders and "not by artificial timetables set by politicians in Washington," reports CBS News correspondent Mark Knoller.

3. But only SOME of the generals, you know the dangerous mutineers
lacking patriotism and hating their troops.

2. Translation:
You (the Generals) think you can do better? Fine, it's your baby now. *wiping of hands*

4. They sure did support the civilian control of the military when Clinton
was in the oval office.

6. Bush is the ultimate general.
He really is a loser. He takes no responsibility for any of this shit. He's the one ultimately responsible. No general is. And this shouldn't be left on another president.

7. Another translation: "We'll get out of Iraq when I tell my generals
to say it's time."
