Looks like you've put too much faith in reporters. We have a job to do. Just shut up and let us do it the way we see fit. We know the rule, and we know our jobs. You don't.

Ok, the title of the thread is from the news story showing how gangs are spreading in the military. Fear mongering and gullibility on the other hand is like when the administration uses "gut feelings", alert-levels based on nothing, and misinformation about WMDs to scare the public into supporting bullshit.

Ok, if 70% want to withdraw I'm behind them doing what they see fit. Now shut up about it just cause you're in the minority.
We should let the soldiers do their job, instead of keeping them in Iraq.

Why would you cut the important part off?
"especially not posed as a trade-off with other concerns?".

I wasn't asking about "other concerns." I was asking for a number.
Since you asked though---What important public "concerns" should a candidate in '08 arrange in priority when running for the office of President of the US? Please list them, in your opinion, 10 being the most critical.
Why haven't you addressed the fact that the majority whip has been interviewed in the media and has stated that good news reported from Iraq is bad news for the democrat party?

Wanna bet, had some fool asked 1000 trops in Monte Casino if they wanted to withdraw, nealry 100% would have said yes.
Same with Iwo Jima.
What about Normandy? The Battle of the Bulge? Guadalcanal?
That's why you don't take polls in a theater of war.
Our men volunteered-with an incredible amout volunteering post 9/11 & an even more incredible number after the fall of Baghdad.
Stay out of their way (same goes for Pelosi, Reed, Murtha & yes, Bush)

No Gonz
you had to mention battles that the troops actually
would have shot AT YOU if you suggested they run away!
If you went to Iraq and tried to convince the boots on the ground that they aren't up to the task,
that they are no match for the little men in dirty night shirts
I'd think you'd have a tough time?

Link?
"U.S. Troops in Iraq: 72% Say End War in 2006"
Le Moyne College/Zogby Poll shows just one in five troops want to heed Bush call to stay “as long as they are needed”

We're a little late. It's time you support the troops.
I'm sure you'll just keep making up crap instead tho'.

So what is the point of you posting this?
You do know that:
A: Said "members of Iraq's parliament" would all soon be dead if American troops left?
B: The Iraqi 'gubermint' has about as much power as a housefly?
and
C: Even in the HIGHLY unlikely event one of your silly-assed candidates
makes it in to the Blanca House the troops ain't leaving Iraq?
I breathlessly await the appropriate cogent response that we've all so become accustomed too from you!

Learn to follow the discussion.
Survey shows just 3% of Americans approve of how Congress is handling the war in Iraq; 24% say the same for the President
Did someone mention Zogby?

B-b-but I thought that the threat of terrorism was akin to fear mongering.

You wish.
Wrong, the Council passes federal laws, oversees the executive, ratifies treaties, and approves nominations of specified officials. It elects the president of the republic, who selects a prime minister from the majority coalition in the Council.
Wrong again.
Two of your points were wishful speculation and one was and outright lie.
Of course we're accustomed to you posting this kind of crap. Maybe you want to try being cogent for once?

By that, you mean ignore when you make up meaningless crap that has no basis in reality?
Yes, the great majority of the US wants us out of Iraq and for them Congress isn't doing enough to get us out. For the other idiots they are doing too much.
Did you have an actual related point?
