Has anyone heard what the postive things are they are happening in Iraq....

[butterfly77]

Does anyone who have a family member or friend who has been over there who has spoken of any of them. When I hear the republiCONS say that its not that bad and that there are a lot of good things happening over there I perk up my ears for the list...the most I have heard is that they are giving children candy and that they have built schools or hospitals. What good are the schools if they are blown up or the hospitals if all of the doctors are leaving and people are being murdered in the waiting rooms.

1. The Iraqis we have killed can't enjoy those new schools

and hospitals.

[Beelzebud]

2. I've heard about lots of schools being built.

Does each Iraqi child get his or her own school house?

6. I heard that insurgents had infiltrated the schools also ...

and killed, I guess they are counting on us forgetting what has gone on in the past...

3. No. There a ZERO positive things happening in Iraq right now.

Repukes live in the state called Denial.

9. That's because they listen to ...

proganda spouted by Slannity...

12. Slannity, Anthrax Counter, Gush Limpballs and and and

dam, the list if fucking endless. :puke:

4. we have made a ton of progress rebuilding schools and hospitals, restoring water and electricity

problem is, we are the reason the schools and hospitals were destroyed in the first place. And we are the reason there were problems with the water, and no electricity.

So, the only real "good news" is that we are starting to fix what we broke.

7. The money is being wasted...

I saw them showing some schools in the past, but they haven't been back to show us how good it is going...

[karlrschneider]

11. There is less water and power than before the invasion.

...

5. Conservatives should vacation in Baghdad if its so fucking nice

Easy for cowardly chickenhawks who get their facts from right wing hate radio to blather on about how good things are. Things were much better for Iraqis under Hussein vs the brilliant compassion they now receive from republican "leadership."

[butterfly77]

8. They do, in the green zone...

and then they come back and tell us it is all good. Don't they realize that the Iraqis can see that they have electricity and water.

10. I hear there's a bitchin' US embassy.

Hopefully it has helicopter pads on the roof.
