As if we needed reminders of why not: "Speaker Pelosi"

from JoeUser Forums
Read those words again, "Speaker Pelosi"

Those are the words that the Democrats want all of us to be saying in the fall. As you see in headlines at Drudge, or in a hundred other blog sites and news sites, that is what the Democrats are working themselves to achieve. A take over in the house, and from there, well, the sky is the limit.

Is this what the country really needs? Is this what idiots like the resident Bush bashin' troll here at JU would want to stick this country with? (No need to answer there, as that is most certainly what that clown would like to see, damn the torpedos that would be launched by the Dems and the mis-management of all things politic that would come out of a Democratically controlled house if they should win it back in the fall, anything that would derail Bush would be great for the country, or so we are repeatedly told by some).

Wake up people. I'll be one of the many (including BakerStreet's recent article here) that would say that there are places where I'm disappointed with the Bush administration, and with the clowns in the Congress, but I'd also say that what we have currently is many times better than the thought of a Democrat run house or Senate. Never mind another Democrat at 1600 Penn. Ave.

Speaker Pelosi? I certainly hope not.

Try Waco and Ruby Ridge, Sodiaho.


With palms together,

Thank you for this reference. I was appalled at these actions. Yet, somehow I don't see the comparison. Maybe I'm sort of dumb, but weren't the prisoners in Iraq without weapons and bound? My country doesn't torture, or at least that's what I believed. Waco and Ruby Ridge could have been resolved peacefully or I would hope, on the other hand these were armed citizens refusing lawful orders from their government. Tough call. But not the same at all.

Be well.

When attempts to debate result in replies such as, "You DUMBASS," such attempts quickly lose their appeal.


Oh I dont deny there is that. A lot of it as well. But there is also a lot of good debate. If you read kingbee and StevenDedalus, you would see it. And most of the conservatives as well. Where you get that is on COl Gene and Myrrander. Even Moderateman, while passionate, is for the most part respectful. Where we do stray from the reservation is the drive by troll.

But for the regulars, there is for the most part rational discourse. With noted exceptions.

You are comparing an autorized act of the government with an unauthorized one. Were not the perpertrators punished at Abu Graib? Were they at Waco? Ruby Ridge? You seek to do double penalties, and forgive those not penalized. Do you not see the hypocrasy in that? I think you need to get your palms together more, and with an open mind.

If you'd read more carefully, you'd know I do.

Ok, rub it in! DAIWA IS RIGHT!

And correct as well. Sorry, reading too many things at the same time.

Lots of points doesn't give Gene an extra microgram of credibility... make that any credibility... but if points give him pleasure and somehow validate his self-worth, let him wallow in his delusions all he wants.


You can look at it that way if you like Daiwa, but personally, if it seems that Gene is after points, then I'm gonna do everything possible to make each one he gets take a herculean effort. Seriously, I'm not about to let him validate his worthless trolling by letting his points keep accumulating. It takes almost no effort to tag those worthless cut and paste jobs of his for the trolling clips they are. I'd rather see him in a permanent deficit and without any hope of ever seeing his site show up in the top of the JoeUser sites, or see any of his articles ever show up as featured.

Perhaps if he'd write something that wasn't just a blatant smear job, I might not feel that way, but as is, his thoughts are nothing but rehashing of other left wing nut job rants that he claims "proof" his points. From my point of view, he couldn't "proof" his way out of the first week of a high school Geometry class, but that's just my $0.02

First of all, it was drmiler who put these events together. I was relying to that. There was a culture at that prison and throughout the chain of command that made it possible for torture to occur. Many people on the right defended the torture and continue to do so. I do not see what the government did at Waco or at Ruby Ridge as something in need of punishment in the same sense as torturers. While abhorant and unskillful, it was legal. I do not understand your comment about 'double penalties' and hypocracy.

Be well.
