Hey, liberals. The shoe is on the other foot now.

Where is your mock outrage over civilian deaths, now that Obama is in charge? Bunch of damned hypocrites.

One police official estimated at least 90 people were killed, and that 40 of them were civilians, including some who were receiving fuel being distributed by militants at the crossing. He spoke on condition of anonymity because of sensitivity over the issue of civilian deaths in the Afghan conflict.

NATO airstrike in Afghanistan kills up to 90

wasn't it Stalin who once remarked that one death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic?

and "kill" is such a harsh word, maybe re-education should be tried first. After all, Obama's buddy, Bill Ayers, liked the idea of re-education camps for people who disagreed should the Weather Underground succeed in affecting revolutionary change in America.

So the overall theme of this thread is outrage over the killing of civilians in Afghanistan...yet in the same breath the OP suggests killing liberal civilians....

Seems a little hypocritical...which according to the OP is a characteristic of being a liberal...

Oh no!! We're going in circles here!!

No, the overall theme is, liberals are a bunch of damned hypocrites.

How am I the hypocrite? I never screamed about the civilian deaths when Bush was in office.

Funny thing, the liberals have suddenly become silent about civilian deaths. Unless of course, you happen to mention their's.

So you're telling me that Obama pushed a button and said bomb them? First off this strike was called in by Germans if you had read the article and it was NATO that called in our planes. Do you really want to get into civilian casualty numbers from when Bush was in charge? Over 100,000 Iraqi civilians have been killed in this war, Sadam killed 148. You tell me who's the murderer. There would be over 150,000 more people on this earth had George Bush not started his war. I mean this has to be one of the worst arguments I've ever heard.

NATO, hotshot! That's us too. BTW, the Germans called it in. American planes laid the bombs down.

The liberals all but had Bush as the second gunman on the grassy knoll. They blamed him personally for every death in Iraq.

Civilian casualties are the price of war. Lib or Conservative be damned. That **** happens regardless of who is in power. Moot thread.

May be that most of the media is of the liberal bent. No shock there.

I'll preface my comment by saying Saddam needed to be delt with, but we did in fact invade a country neither attacked us nor posed a a significant threat.

How many deaths (American included) would there be in Iraq had Bush himself (without congressional declaration of war) decided not to invade? If primary blame is to be leveled on one person, Bush would indeed be the leading candidate.

OHHHZZZ NOOO!!!! The media is leaned left! Get over it. Its that way and always will be. He should be blamed for every death in Iraq it was his war. Ask anyone in the Bush administration around that time like Colin Powell they will tell you that right after 9/11 Bush was looking to make a connection with Iraq and he was going to keep digging stuff up credible or not until he got enough for a war declaration. He manipulated congress with 9/11 fear tactics and got us in a war that no other president would have gotten us involved in so yes he should be blamed for people who die at the hands of a war he started. By the way I am not a Liberal but I do believe in common sense (i.e. not this BS war) and I'm liberal on a few issues but the vast majority of issues I'm conservative on. I'm not going to believe in something just because a certain party does.

Are you seriously saying that Sadam was only responsible for 148 deaths?

This is a lame arguement. The Dems voted for war. They were outraged just like everyone else - so long as it suited their political goals. As the war lost favor with the public, fewer and fewer Dems would admit that they were on the band wagon too.

Remember when we gassed the Kurds? OH wait, that was Saddam.

Hundreds of thousands of other Iraqi citizens simply disappeared under Saddams regime.

I believe the current Secretary of State would be one of those.

Obama has been POTUS for nine months. Using your skewed reasoning, he is personally responsible for any continued fatalities in the war in Afghanistan. He has only escalated the number of troops, not reduced them.
