Senator Kerry isn't the first person to use the word "quagmire," nor is Iraq the first war to ever have the term applied to it. Your post is typical of the scandal hungry masses who want to read venom against America into everything the left says. Iraq IS a quagmire. It is the Bush administration which has allowed much of the populated areas to become insurgent controlled "no-go" zones. That's not leftist propaganda. That's from the Pent
Can we stop putting this garbage out? Vietnam is over. Let's leave Bush and Kerry alone for what happened in the 70's.
Annan says US action "Illegal?" What he Meant to Say was "Unprofitable." by Michael Roberts "Jesus Stays Crunchy" It seemed so simple. Iraq had oil. They needed food. US led sanctions were hurting the economy of Iraq, and innocent people were starving. The United Nations, that gentle, peace-promoting organization had a plan – allow Iraq to sell their black gold for food. Kofi Annan said, “I think I can do business with Iraq.” The Fo
Saddam is not immortal, he would have died sooner or later. *laugh* We've been saying the same thing about Castro for decades. I'm beginning to think Ponce De Leon should have been looking for that fountain of youth in Cuba, not Florida.
I'm agreeing with the right so much tonight, I'm beginning to feel like the Green Party's Zell Miller. Nationalreview.com is reporting that at least one CBS executive wants Rather to resign.
"Well, in essence, it, first of all, acknowledged that we made mistakes. We had a bad night. Everybody has a bad night now and again. When we have one, sometimes it's a really bad one, and this was a really bad one." --Dan Rather, Larry King Live 2001 He's talking about the 2000 election. "Let me pause and say that a car bomb has exploded outside the State Department in Washington." "We've been saying straight thro
I was in the majority except for who I'm going to vote for and who I thought was telling the truth -- I put that I think both men are telling the truth.
Here's a poll you can take asking if Dan Rather should resign. http://www.newsmax.com/rather/ Link
*laugh* Make the Supremes take a vow of poverty...or live in the same house (anybody see "a mighty wind?")
yeah, this from the guy who wanted to bang a prostitute's 10 year old daughter...
Sure, 3 for 3 it is *grin* Bugger the UN, Kofi Annan, Dan Rather, and Texans for Truth.
Yup, as I said on another thread DAN RATHER should RESIGN.
*laughs again* Damn, me and drmiler are two for two today. I'm telling you, we need the Multi-Partisan Council of Pissed Off Folks, we can start it here on Joe User. president for one six year term, and I wouldn't be against extending the terms for senators and representatives, 10 years and 4 years perhaps, but everybody gets one term and then gets tossed... you ladies and gentlemen want to leave the Supreme Court alone?
Hey, AND I fully agree that a big reason France didn't want the US in Iraq was because they were making fat cash off the oil for food deal. This is a corrupt system -- and when the system gets too corrupt, you erase it and start over. It's going to be up to the powers of the West along with the emerging powers of the East (and Russia, who straddles both) to come up with something new. This current corrupt joke of an organisation is beyond ho
US / Mexico Border. Agred, ShoZan, I think this is a red-hot issue that neither candidate wants to touch. The Canadian border as well, but the US/Mexico border is the biggest weakness we have. I'm not anti-immigration, but I work for a school in an area of Arkansas that has a lot of poultry processing
He pensado siempre "si Alemania y Francia pueden ser amigos, cualquiera puedo ser amigos."
Heh. I'd vote for McCain. He sold his soul this year to be the nominee in 2008 in my opinion.
Hmmmm...you might have something there, ShoZan. And term limits for Congress, too.
Bush has several stock answers. "9/11" "I'm a compassionate conservative" and "flip flop" are the top three. No Saddam wasn't good. But neither is King Fahd or Kim Jong IL. Don't give me that crap. Hell, if taking out evil dictators was such a big deal for Bush, he should have just invaded Cuba. It's a lot closer.
Independent commission Sure, I don't think jettisoning the system is the answer if it can be fixed (and I think it can). I don't think 3rd party votes are wasted, either. The Greens made the Dems notice them back in 2000 -- and the Dems NEEDED that kick in that pants. Actually, they need a B
I thought this would be a big attention getter. Hmm. Hope your ocal facility isn't on this list. Mine is.
Wow. This is the first issue that me and Drmiler have agreed on. *laugh* See, I told you I was going with the GOP on this one.
So the news on NPR today was that Rather has admitted that they "can't verify the authenticity" of the documents used. He said CBS has made a "mistake." Shouldn't they have researched the athenticity of these documents better? Of course they should have. I don't like George Bush. But I don't give a flip what he did or didn't do in 1972 in the Guard. And to impugn the office of the President by publicising unverified documents -- well ther
Another point of criticism is that the electoral vote distribution is not proportional to the popular vote distribution because of the automatic two votes per state provision. If you contrast the number of electoral votes per person in California and Alaska, this point is clear. And yeah, sure, lying about a blow job fits MY definition of "high crimes and misdemeanors." As for your second paragraph, I'm not sure what that has to do with anyt
