The curse of Cameron
There seems to be a close correlation between places David Cameron has visited and councils the Tories are failing to gain: Gosport, Bolton ...

I'm glad John Doe recognises that they now have democratic elections in Iraq.

The Iraqis who are still alive can now vote (if the security situation permits it). Pity the whole entire infrastructure has collapsed and Iraqis are worse off now than at the height of the USUK sanctions. But hey, who cares about living conditions or dead relatives, they have DEMOCRACY!!!11

Oops. Bury gone...24% projected national share, Cons at 44%. Not a reflection that Conservatives are capable of doing a better job, more sick to death of a Labour government, who have lost the plot.

John, mortality surveys and opinion polls show Afghans are better off, and less of them are dying, thanks to that invasion, and you opposed it anyway. That reveals that you don't actually give a shit about Iraqis. You support the terrorism against them.

You're right John, there were no dead relatives under your favourite friendly Baatist regime was there?
Are you really this thick or merely trolling?

"John, mortality surveys and opinion polls show Afghans are better off"
You don't want to talk about Iraq anymore then? Gave up on that one? Thought so.
"and less of them are dying, thanks to that invasion, and you opposed it anyway."
Mind reading again? I didn't say I didn't support the Afgan war. I didn't say I supported it. You're setting up straw man arguments. You're exceptionally bad at debating in any kind of coherant way.
"You're right John, there were no dead relatives under your favourite friendly Baatist regime was there?"
Not as many as were caused by the USUK sanctions, the Iran/Iraq war that the Americans pushed Iraq into, and the current war. Its a lesser of two evils argument, you fucking fool.

Cameron visited Hastings, got snotted by a local and the Tories have failed to gain control of the council.

How many dead were killed by liberators and how many by insurgent terrorists?

*occupiers from an illegal war
*freedom fighters
Might doesn't make right.

So you defend terrorist attacks on civilians. What a bizarre creature you are.
