@Shellandshilo1956 You misunderstood me. I’m not approving of this. I’m 100% against it. I want this idiot president to get our troops out of Iraq and Syria, not increase them and commit them to those countries forever. I’ve told you that before, so I’m surprised that you missed my meaning.
Maybe you should have responded with this post first, instead of the other. When you said this, I thought you were against Biden's foreign policy in Iraq.
My reaction: Strike Fucking One!!
And THIS, folks, is why substance over style fucking matters.
But then you said this,
Maybe Biden, who is who statesmanlike and sensible, can talk Australia into helping out in Iraq.
Come on, Australia! Send your boys!
Which sounds to me, that you wanted Australian troops to become a part of the NATO contingent. Then you defended your
I don't give a fuck, John. That was 18 fucking years ago.
You ready send your boys to Iraq?
But Biden is "stately" and "sensible", according to people here.
Come on, pussies! Send your kids to that shithole! Man up!
Then join up! NATO and Biden need you.
This doesn't sound like you are against Biden's policies.
However, to be fair, you DID say,
Yeah, we started it. And Trump was reducing our presence there.
And now this dipshit wants to get back in deeper ... for fucking ever!
What the fuck is he thinking???????
So I apologize if I got mixed messages from your posts. Even though Biden has not sent one soldier to Iraq, you speak as though he has. Your views to exploit everything that the Democrats do wrong, and to downplay and spin everything that they get right, seems obvious to me. You are also opposed to most progressive ideas(except Tulsi's), and to most democratic policies(which do not include bringing all the troops home). You are a Fiscal conservative, and are against these endless wars in general. But, you don't mind blowing the budget to keep funding this so-called war on terrorism.
If Biden does increase the number of troops in Iraq, it would not be surprising to me. He and Kamala are just pawns to power. They are more interested in protecting the interests of corporate America, the MIC, Wall Street, their own image, and the interests of their private donors, than in the interests of the country. They were corporate bitches before they were elected, and are still corporate bitches now. Did anyone really think that Biden would stop these endless and costly foreign wars? Just look at his 8 year record as Vice President under Obama. What has changed?
The real fear should be that Biden is 78yo. He is not going to last 4 years. This means Pamala will be President. She is ALL about image and appearances. And, nothing about vision and substance. She is an even worse egotist than Trump. At least Trump didn't sleep his way to success. She will just go along to get along. The President's job is to set the agenda for policy. He doesn't make policy. So far, his agenda has all been about revoking all of Trump policies(like Trump with Obama), and about this hyped pandemic.
As I've said before, There have only been 3 near-Progressive US presidents so far(Roosevelt, Taft, and Wilson). We are in dire need of another now!! So far we are just electing actors, playing the role of President. Tulsi was the only person of substance that did not need to act to be presidential. And, her policies were just as progressives as these presidents.
