No timetables for leaving Iraq, declares our George W. Bush! The terrorists would dine out on a timetable! This is why we do not have a timetable for leaving Iraq, even though the Iraqi government wants one (although they have elections too and may be PANDERING to bums who will be killed upon withdrawal[!]). Today, however, “The United States and Iraq have agreed to set a ‘general time horizon’ for the ‘further reduction of U.S. combat forces in Iraq.’” Ooh, this is the ticket. It’s sort of like saying “nothing will change at all, and this crap should temporarily appease both of our stupid constituencies,” but with a different set and sequence of words. [NYT]

WTF… if you say everything(at least once)does that mean you have some sort of legit position.
Well, I’m satisfied.
Its one of those timeshare tricks.
Time horizon? I was watching George Carlin’s last HBO special and he said our lives are all about avoiding bullshit. But there it is, right in front of me.
It’s not really bovine waste when you use different words.
[re=39706]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Do we get a free boat?
…and if you act now, you get a free super shammy with your withdrawal timetable!
Reacharounds for all! Yay!
I am the product of a botched withdrawal. You absolutely must set a time limit. “Time horizons” end poorly.
‘Time horizon’ for resumption of golf starting in 3…2…1…
[re=39706]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Time Horizon at Orlando, designed with Key West flair, is surrounded by the thrills of the world’s favorite vacation destinations. Spacious two-bedroom, two-bath villas have full kitchens, separate living and dining areas, screened balcony, and washer/dryer.
[re=39719]tunamelt[/re]: Is it the ShamWOW!?!?!?!?!?!
[re=39727]Vewol Mevemont[/re]: LMAO… in that case wouldn’t your commander-in-chief prefer to be there for 100 years?
Hm, maybe it’s like an ‘event horizon’, only not. Kind of a ‘non-event horizon’.
[re=39739]TGY[/re]: No, event horizon is correct. Except we forget that we’re looking at if from the wrong side, that is, the inside of the ::AHEM:: black hole, and thus we will never be able to escape. Yay!
[re=39717]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: [re=39733]More_bitterer[/re]:
Be careful, it’s actually an all expenses-paid three day trip to Guantanamo.
No boat, but definitely a washer (for waterboarding) and at least you get free Health care.
Does this mean we’re winning?
[re=39744]InsidiousTuna[/re]: We were winning before we even started.
im so glad that the surge worked…now our troops can finally withdraw to Afghanistan…
[re=39745]tunamelt[/re]: [re=39744]InsidiousTuna[/re]: If we don’t quit we can’t lose!
[re=39747]V572625694[/re]: The magic of science!
[re=39747]V572625694[/re]: Yes! Instead of “Mission Accomplished” it should have been “ENDLESS VICTORY!”
If you ever take a picture of the setting sun sinking into the horizon, you have to set your camera lens ti “infinity.”
George is looking at this horizon – the one set to infinity.
You know, he’s a lot smarter that I gave him credit for.
[re=39751]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: Enduring Freedom –> Endless Victory –> Everlasting Salvation?
[re=39756]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: Jesus Saves! (and frequently makes back-ups?)
George W Bush suffers from Temporal Horizigo, a specific type of dizziness, and a major symptom of a balance disorder. It is the sensation of the body as stationary, dull and numb with respect to the surrounding circumstances, which are spinning out of control and swaying all of the other people in sight.
Temporal horizigo can cause nausea, delusions, and, in severe cases, it may give rise to difficulties with golfing and talking.
M. Night Shyamalan is working on a movie about this condition.
[re=39760]tunamelt[/re]: The Holy Spirit is basically one giant flashdrive
[re=39740]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: We are in the grip of a foreign policy so massively dense that even logic cannot escape its gravitic pull. Matter, energy, time, space, reason, sanity–all those terms are meaningless inside Dubya’s black hole.
McCain: Cuntry First.
[re=39769]madirishman[/re]: Is there any hope of Obama radiation slowly evaporating us out?
George Bush: Appeasement monkey
Mission accomplished.
Yay?
“You don’t want to know where this hand has been”
[re=39775]NotUrEvryDayWEzl[/re]: The Hillary Corollary says no, but the McCain Theorem shows promise–focus all the hot air in Washington into a single point, and blast our way out of Dubya’s black hole. Personally, I think the Beltway Echo Chamber would simply reflect the energy back to its source. Research is on-going.
I’m pretty sure he stole the name, or the idea, from Stephen Hawking. The President’s a big reader, you know.
A Time Horizon is what you see through your Window of Opportunity, before someone spreads Fuzzy Logic over your World of Pane.
By the way, George W. Bush is such a DEFEATOCRAT WHO IS ALSO A TERRORIST!!!!!!
Didn’t Newell already post this? Oh, wait…shit…six more months, just around the corner, last throes…Glorious Neverending Victory!
“Possible Undefined Withdrawal”: Laura fell for that one, too. Result: twins.
Like “eventually,” “at some point” or “whenever I get around to it.” Yeah, but the dishes are still in the damned sink.
[re=39854]Delicious[/re]: Yeh! Friday is repeat day! That means 23 EXTRA weeks of Georgeypoo. Thank Gawd.
This week on Time Horizon! Colonel Kronos, Ensign Jimmy and Ruffy arrive in Washington DC in 1881. Will they be able to prevent the assassination of President Garfield?
The Time Horizon . . . it shows you. . . things.
General Time Horizon, now and forevermore to be known as GTH. Done.
well, well, well.
Hopeys time line for withdrawl has just been approved by Maliki.
Not that he is endorsing a candidate or anything.
Time’s Horizon of the Year will feature a photo of Hillary mounting and pinning a flag on the surface of Obama’s black hole.
psyche! we wiil just go on extended daylight savings time horizon, forever.
Occupation Interruptus: GWB’s Southern Baptist equivalent of birth control.
Pull out before you can be named as the daddy, rather than your driver al-Maliki.
But I say this in a good way.
“but with a different set and sequence of words.”
Iran talk no. Fire good.
