Little arguments like that are the "ace in the hole" types of things you keep after you let some liberal blabber on and on about how the war on terror isn't in iraq, it's in the hills of afghanistan and pakistan. Let them just keep on going and going, and then point out that they are a unilateral, nation building, regime changing, pre-emtpive, "intelligence" believing clone of the "Bush Doctrine". And then watch them sit there.
fucking wake up, democrats. Pick a platform that makes sense, and isn't just opposite of everything bush does. invading pakistan, attacking pakistan, regime changing pakistan (which is something Biden said last night) is riduculous. If you're for that, then by definition you are required to be for doing the same to Iran, for sending american soldiers, with bullets, into Sudan and Darfur, and killing bad people. And that makes you a republican and a Bush Doctrine lover. How's that feel?

You want to oppose the war in Iraq, because it was based on faulty intelligence and unilateral action, and without the support of the UN (which is a false claim), or our major allies.....but you want to invade pakistan and kill osama bin laden if he's there and we have "actionable intelligence". That = idiot. Democrats.
You want to reduce dependency on foreign oil, but you don't want to drill off shore. You want to produce more alternative energy, but you don't want to put windfarms on the sea state shorelines (see massacusetts for the best, most ridiculous example). You want to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, and you push for ethanol in cars.....so instead of a fossil fuel, you have a bio-fuel, and the ridiculously large amount of ineffeciency and carbon footprint it takes to produce it. That = idiot. Democrats.
You want to sit down with clowns like Ahminidindidjhejhajead (or change the subject and instead imagine for a second you'll sit down with the "true theocratic leaders" of Iran, something Biden and Obama both said in the debates).....right, because the conversation at the table is going to go any different than it's gone in the last 30 years of "diplomacy"? They want to kill jews. We say killing jews is wrong. That's it. Anything else to talk about? that = idiot. Democrats.
You want to be the party of compassion and caring, of unity and world respect. You want to bring back the prestige and respect america had/has in the world. You want people to think of america as a friend and ally. but you want to do exactly what causes us to be looked at like pieces of shit in Iraq. you want to "pull out", just as we pulled out on the South Vietnamese. Just as we half assed it and pulled out in Somalia. Just as we refuse to go in and do a damn thing about Rwanda, Darfur, Sudan, Congo, Sierra Leonne, or Liberia. You want to invade pakistan, and put american soldiers on the ground in lebanon, AGAIN, but you don't want to do the same for similar situations around the world. It's because we sold out the afghani's in the 80's that they hate us, then and now. It's because we abandonded the Iraqi opposition to Saddam in the 1st Gulf War that the people don't trust us, and are reluctant to follow us. It's because we abandonded the fight in Vietnam because we didn't like the way it looked on TV and because "war is bad" and "peace is love" that rogues and despots and dictators like ahmininajjeajajd feel, and say out loud that we are paper tigers, incapable of fighting a war, and using that to empower themselves, oppress their people, and maintain authority.
so how about, just this one time, we do some shit right. We kill fucking terrorists, whereever they are, no matter what. We refuse to leave Iraq, we build schools and hospitals and airports and military bases, we give them infrastructure and stability, and hell, let's put them in fucking NATO while we're at it. That's what FRIENDS and COMPASSION does. We nut it up and drop in 100,000 soldiers into Afghanistan, mandate the tribes give up power, women aren't treated like slaves, roads and schools are built, people have power, and food, and water, and make their country a better place. Then, we drop into Sudan, Darfur, and every other worthless african dictatorship, and we do the same.
Then....when we're done with that, we can see if Kim Jung Il (who is likely dead), or Ahminidahajaja are still running their mouths. Because at that point, the word on the street will be that we are to be taken seriously, that we are not paper tigers, that we truly want the world to be a better place, and that we have the means and will to do it.
Because people don't believe that is why fuck faces like ahmanianajhadjejad even exist. Weakness and apathy. So don't blame bush for having the nutsack to say "I don't give a fuck what my approval rating is. What we are doing is right by history, and I could give a fuck less what you think about it in your myspace blog". That's called being a president.

Re: Vp Debate!
I don't oppose nuclear power.
I don't want to invade Pakistan but I support incursions based on actionable intelligence.
Sure let's drill. Like it matters.
We need allies and friends. That sometimes requires compromises. It's called diplomacy.
Here's what I'm going to do. Vote.
Nuff said.

That's for pansy legislators to bicker and moan about so they can look good for their small constiuents.....but real issues like war, and economics, and energy, and taxes, and foreign policy......the democrats play politics, while the republicans, in power, play "real". Real choices, in the real world.
of course, the democrats were out of power in congress until recently, and have had 8 years out of the oval office....so in FAIRNESS, "playing politics" is about all you can do.
But you can pick issues that you are actually RIGHT on, and not simply issues that stupid fuckign college kids can easily understand, i.e. "war is bad". Jesus fucking christ.

That said, I can truthfully see us going country to country and cleaning up the entire middle east, and probably Africa, over the next 100 or 150 years. And at that point, we still won't have stopped terrorism, but the world will be a bit of a better place. Though, as it seems to go, a better place built on the blood of millions of American lives.
As for Trigger... Go, vote. It's honestly not going to make a bit of difference who's in office; we're not going to pull out of Iraq until it's settled down. No one's stupid enough to pull them all out and basically destroy what we've spent the past 7 years building. You do that, and all those soldiers who've died over there died for nothing, because Iraq will go back to the way it was, and the only difference is that they'll hate us more. On the other hand, if it DOES make a difference, and Obama pulls them all out... Then we would have elected someone less fit to run this country than we could have possibly imagined (we, of course, meaning the 25% of the population that bothers to vote).

the typical "it looks good on my protest poster" response. two or three words. Like "End the War". And somehow that satisfies you as an argument.
What war? End it how? When? Where? And then what?
