Bush's latest definition of "success" in Iraq: "Success is not, no violence. There are parts of our own country that have got a certain level of violence to it. But success is a level of violence where the people feel comfortable about living their daily lives. And that’s what we’re trying to achieve."

I'm puzzled as to why you're puzzled.

how many people killed by car bombs in your neighborhood each day would allow you to feel comfortable.

Bullets are just as effective as bombs.

Why is killing using one method more terrible then killing by other methods?

Plus, lots of bombs have gone off in Israel. That country is considered stable.

Do drive by shootings count as violence, how about nuts that blow away 32 college kids and professors?

It is a weak definition, LOL, no I would not like to have car bombs in any American city!

Charlie

Then I hereby define the acceptable level of violence as that which it's at right now.

War is over, we won! yay! We can go home and stop blowing all our money on that little country.

Declare victory, bring all the troops home tomorrow, have a little parade and sweep this damn debacle under the rug.

This is all that's going to happen anyway, since there is no way of reasonably measuring victory all that will happen is that at some point in time we will deem it "acceptable" and declare victory and come home. The other side will also declare victory (no one can measure it, everyone can claim it)... but there is nothing that can be done about it.

and this has what to do with iraq and 100 gi's killed in april

Bush could declare that 2 + 2 = 4 and Rick would call him on it.

Of course, I'm not suggesting that Bush actually knows this fact, only that Rick would find fault.

As for the subject at hand, everything is relative.

Especially incest.

another bull**** non answer from the right.

The acceptable level of violence in Iraq should be defined as the point when I can get foreign oil workers into the country with a level of expected safety equal to that in Nigeria.

We are not even close yet but at least we have made significant progress on the Petroleum Law and we should now be able to get the petroleum sharing agreements in place.

We needed to send 100,000 more troops immediately but did it "on the cheap" once again.

why is it you are the only one that can say **** here without being banned?

I dunno!?

**** = banned?

G.W.O.S.

All hail
