This Is Not A Democracy, It's A Republic........
What's the Kool-Aid in reference to? I never understood the joke.
Good post though.
Matt, have you ever heard of Jonestown?
Short story shorter... There was a crazy guy, he had a cult, he and his followers were nuts, the followers completely brainwashed. When the cult was about to be infiltrated, he and his followers drank cyanide laced Kool-Aid, and all died.
These days it is used in reference to those who blindly follow, without having a thought of their own.
"And Harry,face facts, you can spin it anyway you want, but the path we are on right now is the only path."
You lost any credibility you had left with that statement. I think about 99.9 percent of the country - including all political parties - would say you're crazy.
Yeah, the path we're on is really working. Keep believing that if you want. I know, the truth hurts, but it's time maybe you took a second to maybe consider things aren't really going as planned over there.
And, by the way, maybe Harry's idea of actually getting Bin Laden - who was responsible for 9/11 - isn't that bad of an idea to begin with. After all, the "President" stood at Ground Zero with his sleeves rolled up and his bullhorn blazing that we'd get whoever was responsible at all costs.
Just a thought.
Sometimes, when a loon calls early in the morning, he will hear his own echo and believe that he is leading another loon to the right place.
Stay out of the echoey places, Pete.
In case you haven't been paying attention, the Islamo-Facists are the enemy, OBL is just one of many heads of the hydara we are trying to sever. When the enemy runs, you track them to where they ran to - not where they came from.
Until/unless you have taken the fight to those who want to kill you, don't go off about whether or not the country is following the right path. Book learning and listening to liberal speakers will only slant your thoughts one way. Start thinking for yourself, and put the kool-aid down for a minute.
That about sums it up Cary.
"Until/unless you have taken the fight to those who want to kill you, don't go off about whether or not the country is following the right path."
Exactly. How many terrorists/insurgents were there in Iraq that wanted to kill us before we invaded? Oh, that's right, very few. It was clear that Al-Qaeda/Osama were the ones who wanted to kill us, hence 9/11. Yet we took the fight to Iraq.
"When the enemy runs, you track them to where they ran to - not where they came from."
Uh, okay. But that was our mistake first.
Pete
Your comment, "I think about 99.9 percent of the country - including all political parties - would say you're crazy," is the dumbest thing I've read in days. First, don't be redundant in your thoughts. 99.9% of the country obviously includes 'all political parties'. Secondly, most Americans still support the war in Iraq. Thirdly, the only people who don't agree that we are on the right path are the people who soak up the media's negative, anti-american rhetoric. Ask an Iraqi who has finally been able to vote in a democratic election for someone other than just Saddam if we are on the right path.
This is laughable. The libs just don't understand the stakes of TGWOT. They have their pre 9/11 mentality & they pretend like making nice with the enemy will be good enough. For example, the the Clinton admin. selling our missile technology to the Red Chinese and thinking, "See how nice they are when we just sell our secrets in exchange for political contributions." Sheesh!
"We need a new direction on national security, and leaders with policies that are tough and smart. That is what Democrats offer,"
Why is Democrat policy such a secret? All I ever hear is about how new, tough and smart their policy is. How much better it is than Republican policy but they never actually mention specifics. Their policy is no policy. Like you said Jenn, we'd be on resolution 5,641.
Pete,sometimes you just crack me up.
(dripping sarcasm.)
You:"How many terrorists/insurgents were there in Iraq that wanted to kill us before we invaded? Oh, that's right, very few."
No Pete, let's do the math. You had Saddam, and his son's and his "army". They were definately terrorists. That's what, a few thousand?
Then, you had the Palestinian suicide bombers Saddam employed to carry out his acts of hatred in Israel, killing hundreds+ innocent civilians.

In Iraq pre 9/11:
Jund Al-Islam
Shi'a political group established by dissident members of the Al-Da'wah Party in late 1969. Bloody terrorists.
Do I have to keep going. Do you actually think Iraq was a bed of roses before we went in there? You do, and that's messed up.
Does anybody know of anywhere I can get the number of al-Qaeda killed?
Over on the right hand side, you will see a "counter" of how many attacks carried out by Islamic terrorists since 9/11. Click it, and that website should have the info, or at least lead you to where you can find out.
Thanks Jenn.
I saw that whole counter of terror and why would you anyone would believe in this hype. If such terror was executed who in the right mind had financed the whole group of terror? Most of these so called hi jackers are fundamentalists and patsies of CIA payroll. I am really having a hard time understanding why would they carry out all of the act?
What about operation northwood that involved the Military Industrial Complex along with the CIA in practicing the whole scenario to carry out such abysmal? No way that 9 people can hijack these planes on their own crash it through the trade towers and let the towers collapse like pancakes. The popular mechanics article was whitewashed and no way can jet fuel can weaken steel.
Fact: Steel is usually heated up around 2000-3000 degrees around 5000 degrees it melts. Jet Fuel can never cause the basic skeletal structure to melt.
Fact: Firefighters were inside when the planes crashed and admittedly exterminated out the fires...
Fact: Silverstien who owned all three of these buildings said to pull the WTC 7 building. He admitted it that he pulled the building and the same building that stores the FBI CIA heradquarters of the stock and exchange and securities.
Fact: Marvin Bush was head of security and his last day was on that date.
I wonder how many of the left/right cheerleaders would object to these facts...
Sal Roseville Michigan thinks Bill O'Liely is a great reporter. That explains his ignorance. He would also like to decide who gets representation in court. Hang in there Sal, The ACLU will defend your sorry ass too, when you need it.
Hitman wants to kill everyone who disagrees with him. Nice.
Ok, you know what? I was going to rip all you right wing idiots on this post because. . . . well, because.
But I've changed my mind. Instead, i'll pose one question.
Is this country any better off now than it was on 9/10?
Now, now, resist that right wing knee jerk reaction and TRY to think. Is America any better off now than we were then? That means you must ask yourself these questions. Now, be honest!
Am I better off?
Am I safer?
Am I better paid?
Am I just as free?
Am I as healthy?
Are my neighbors?
Do I have access to health care I can afford?
Do my kids?
Are the schools any better?
Is college any more affordable?
Will my grandkids have the same chances I have?
BUT. . . You also have to ask, Is America better off?
Is America safer?
Is America richer?
Is America as trusted in the world as we were?
Is America still the shining beacon on the hill that other countries can aspire to?
Is America still the home of human rights?
Is American style democracy still the model for the world?
Is America taking care of all her citizens?
if you can HONESTLY answer no to any one of these questions, then George Bush and his administration has FAILED YOU.
Do you really want to support a failure?
Dear Bushhasdamnedus-happy,
Your candidate?
Their agenda?
Their plan?
What, specifically, will they do to make things better? (besides sit there and babble about how bad of a job Bush has done)
When are people gonna learn you're never gonna win an election when you do nothing but finger-pointing, name-calling,abrasive criticism and have no plan whatsoever to address issues.
Awaiting your response. See if you can provide a response without including Bush's name.
P.S.: The answer: "check out my website" is not an acceptable response.
Peace.
Was Saddam a "terrorist" when Bush's father was helping him? So I guess that makes the Bush family "terrorist sympathizers", eh?
And I think the Democrats will finally catch bin Laden but only once they find the secret location Bush and the CIA have been keeping him.
Happy impeachment!
Brad, you are mental. Saddam was used. Period. Not "helped". Big difference.
