Sadr Fan of Democrats Cowardice
Leave Iraq, Sadr tells "Antichrist" Bush
BAGHDAD (Reuters)
The powerful Iraqi cleric and militia leader Moqtada al-Sadr called President George W. Bush the Antichrist on Saturday and urged him to heed calls by the opposition Democrats to withdraw from the chaos of Iraq.
In fresh violence on Saturday, 14 people were killed and 39 others were wounded in a suicide car bombing in the holy Shi'ite city of Kerbala south of Baghdad, a hospital said. A Reuters witness said he saw tens of casualties.
Sadr, whose ministers quit Shi'ite Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's government this month, renewed his demand for a U.S. pullout a day after Bush pledged to veto legislation that would require U.S. troops to begin leaving Iraq by October 1.
Calling Bush "the greatest evil," Sadr said in a letter read out by a Sadrist MP in parliament that an eventual U.S. pullout would be a "victory for the Iraqi people."
"Here are the Democrats demanding that you withdraw at least with a timetable and you are stubborn against them," said Sadr, whose Mehdi Army militia fought two uprisings against U.S. forces in 2004.
"You are like the one-eyed Antichrist. You look with one eye and refuse to look with the other," he told Bush.
Maliki, under pressure from his Washington supporters to pass key power-sharing agreements to reconcile Iraq's warring communities, met a Democrat-led Congressional delegation in Baghdad on Saturday.
A statement from Maliki's office quoted him as telling the delegation that his government is committed "to building its armed forces and taking over the security portfolio all over Iraq in the quickest time."
Bush has refused to set any timetable for a withdrawal, calling it a "surrender date." More than 3,300 U.S. troops have been killed in the increasingly unpopular war since the invasion in 2003.
Defying the veto threat, the Democratic-controlled Congress this week approved a $124 billion war spending measure that would require U.S. combat troops to leave by March 31, 2008.
They have promised to send the bill to the White House on Tuesday, the fourth anniversary of Bush declaring aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln: "Major combat operations in Iraq have ended" after Saddam Hussein was ousted in 2003. The aircraft carrier was decorated with a large "Mission Accomplished" banner.
Wild Thing's comment........
But, this stuff is PRICELESS for the conservative movement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Imagine TV and video ads and You Tube movements using conservative film and video buffs inundating and saturating the airwaves with: ""This is what the enemies of America are saying," and, "this is what the Democrats are saying..............is there any difference?"" type of stuff.
I would just love that to happen. heh heh

How can Bush be the antichrist? His name doesn't add up to 666 (0r 18). There's a couple of dummycraps running who do.
Al Sadr is just a bully moron who has no idea what is going on. He thinks his crap don't stink.

Lynn, didn't radical Baptists, Methodists and Catholics fly AA 11, UF 175, and AA 77 into the WTC and Pentagon? The Reid Retreators are TRAITORS and the 31 Red States of America know this...'Surrender' is not in our vocabulary!

Oh how I wish Sadr had been taken out when the opportunity was there. I know he probably would have been replaced by a another like-minded Shiite mullah, but Sadr should always have been considered as legitimate a target as Bin Laden.

I have felt for a very long time that there is no difference in what the media, the Dems and our enemies say. Well, for sure Bush has stirred up a bunch of al-Sadrs with his veto, I admit that I didn't think he'd sign the veto but have a last minute compromise. It's time for a beer and some more 'Gabby' at the insurgency. Y'all have a nice day.

An enemy of the US and democracy endorses Democrats and their ideas. If this doesn't open eyes to what the Dems stand for, nothing will.

Breaking News: It has been announced that, due to a scheduling conflict, Michael Moore will be unable to attend the 2008 Democratic National Convention. To fill in for him, they have decided to "pick" Moqtada al-Sadr...

Darth, "'Surrender' is not in our vocabulary"..........Amen to that.

Tom I think so too and that would have been such a nice take out to get rid of Sadr.

Jack, big smile, me too I was sort of holding my breath hoping I would not be disappointed.

razOr it should I agree. Dems have their head in the sand when it comes to truth but maybe this will open some of their eyes.
