VP Dick Cheney said in a speech on Friday that "If they [Democrats] are competent to fight this war, then I ought to be singing on American Idol." No offense Mr. Cheney but I hope to God that you are not American Idol. The message that he is trying to get across is that Democrats are incompetent, but at the same time, the Bush administration isn't taking any dissent on the Iraq war with any consideration. When someone speaks against the war, they accuse them of being unpatriotic. When they push for reform, the administration accuses them of shunning the troops.
But the war so far has been a failure. The tactics must change. Iraq is on the slope for full scale civil war. The current war must change. If we keep just going the same way that we have we will not succeed in the ways that America and the world are expecting. The president refuses to even take any constructive criticism. The war plan is not and has never been the only way of accomplishing the goal of freedom. We must consider other ways to achieve success.

What are your other ways of achieving success?
You sound like a poorly programmed robot. Which university's product are you?
There are a few ways that we could start to change. And if you cannot refrain from personal insults please do not post. Thanks.
