I'm sorry, do you have any references that the surge did or did not work?  

Answer 5

I did not realize we were at war with the Iraqi government again. Maybe you should look at who were fighting before you run your mouth off.  

Answer 6

You missed it.  So did I.  GOP says we just have to take their word for it.  After all, it was the right thing to do to go to war finally wasn't it?

Some folks in St. Paul missed the message too.

the  surge is like putting a band aid on a broken arm  

Answer 9

no, the surge did not help us win the war

Answer 10

well #1 McCain did not order the surge

#2 Using a fire extinguisher on a fire you started is a good idea, Good Judgment would have been to vote not to start the fire

Answer 11

McWar is delusional... my friends.

There is not military "victory" to be had in Iraq.

Just a diplomatic compromise between all parties.

Answer 12

Republicans and Dems wanted to go to war in Iraq.  It was a poor choice.

Republican were for the surge.  That has turned out to be a good idea.

The sun is setting on the Iraq war and we can all thank Republicans for the troop surge that is allowing this war to end.

Of course, don't expect the Dems to admit they were wrong (twice).
