So if a tanker truck loaded with toxic waste crashes into your yard

[cboy4]

and house, spilling its contents everywhere....making an enormous mess that could take decades to completely clean up...who should be responsible for the clean-up?

The company which owns the 18-wheeler or the innocent property owner?

Of course, it should be the company.

**Why do I bring this up?

Because I hear all of these Republicans go on and on about how the Iraqis should be doing more to secure their country so we can leave. And they're really angry and sarcastic about it!

Excuse me but the last time I checked, it wasn't the Iraqis who crashed the 18-wheeler loaded with toxic waste.

It was the United States.

Yes, the Iraqis (even though this whole mess with the war wasn't their fault) need to work together to secure their country.

But I'm so fricken sick and tired of listening to these smug politicians (who voted for the war) sigh and make faces and go on and on about how the lazy Iraqi people need to be doing more. :wtf:

Believe me, I want our troops home yesterday.....but, It's not the Iraqi's fault that we put them in this situation of having to start from scratch to take charge. x(

1. Excellent analogy.

We broke it. It's our job to fix it or pay for it. And we should be conscience that we broke it, and make every effort to stop breaking it some more!

10. Yea, well I think that option is off the table for the Iraqis.

Know what I'm sayin?

14. Metaphorically speaking, yes it is.

I was simply responding to your literal question. The Iraqis have no recourse whatsoever.

12. Funny how repukes say people are lazy when it was the repukes

fault to begin with.

You can use that analogy with just about anything they say that they don't want to take the blame for.
