Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

In my day, never was longer.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

The willow is too close to the house.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

I really should read my own blog.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

The lights are all blinking red.

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

You are here: Home / Foreign Affairs / Military / Coalition of the Still Willing

    John,

    I would suggest this link for a more accurate picture of the coalition. Note:

    In the future this is it:

    Albania ~120[April 2005]
    Czech Republic 10
    Australia ~1,400 (+450)
    United Kingdom ~10,500 (?)

    Countries which had troops in or supported operations in Iraq at one point but have pulled out since: Nicaragua (Feb. 2004); Spain (late-Apr. 2004); Dominican Republic (early-May 2004); Honduras (late-May 2004); Philippines (~Jul. 19, 2004); Thailand (late-Aug. 2004); New Zealand (late Sep. 2004); Tonga (mid-Dec. 2004) Hungary (end Dec. 2004); Portugal (mid-Feb. 2005); Moldova (Feb. 2005)

    Countries planning to withdraw from Iraq: Poland (starting Jan.05 and completed by end.05(?)); the Netherlands (Mar. 05); Bulgaria (end of 2005, depending on circumstances); Ukraine (entire contingent, in stages until mid-October 2005), Italy (Sept. 2005)

    Countries which have reduced or are planning to reduce their troop commitment: Ukraine (-200 during Fall04 rotation); Moldova (reduced contingent to 12 around mid-2004); Norway (reduced from ~150 to 10 late-Jun.04, early Jul.04); Bulgaria (-50, Dec.04); Poland (-700, Feb.05).

    Sure wish that departed, eBay-bought Coalition of the Bribed would move into Germany and Kosovo to relieve our forces of the onerous, quagmire of occupation that they’ve endured for somewhere between 7 and 60 years.

    Maybe they could do the nation-building right.

    Cordially…

    No kidding, although you’ve got to keep an eye on Europe. Centuries of war in their blood, you know.
