Leapinglizardto 0 #1 August 11, 2008 While I believe in, understand, and support, at least a basic need & obligation we have as one of the strongest & supportive free nations in the world. To sometimes intervene in outside affairs of unrest & war, in other parts of the world...Just how F * C K I N G far & thin can we stretch our already run ragged, far too many of them drained & homesick, having done much more than their fair share of 'Tours of Duty'? Bush & Cheney are jumping all over this one too! How much more should our loyal military personnel have to endure & sacrifice?High much higher can we get the death toll ?(so many of the most recent of which were unecessary)And how much higher can we get our already record breaking all time high National Defiecet, which Bush inherited as a surplus taking over office? How many more billions or trillions of dollars must we spend to needlessly sacrifice the lives of our great military personnel? Who far too often come home wounded, disabled to have to suffer as they struggle & are subject to the same old slap in the face 'Song & Dance' ?"Why, Yes you did a wonderful job, you sacrificed so very much, and certainly earned benefits, medical care, respect & recognition...but sorry NONE FOR YOU! We spent every last dime and then some, getting you all shot at, wounded or killed...So...tough cookies, get over it! Now move it along nothing to reap here. Oh but don't go too far we'll probably need to use your ass for 'foreign affairs target practice' again. M'kay?" It just ain't right..God Dammit! Once again God Bless our men & women in the military! What are your thoughts on this matter? Yay! Here we go again! It's pretty pathetic when you have to TELL people you're fucking cool Skymama «narrative»This thread will lock in 3..2..

Dumpster 0 #2 August 11, 2008 Lighten up, Francis - No where is there any mention of military action, only some tough-talk. From what wonderfully liberal CNN says in the article, Bush is letting everyone know that he strongly disapproves. If anything, NATO troops might be used, but odds are that diplomatic resources would have to be exhausted first. Take with a grain or thirty of salt. CNN is only giving you a small fraction of the real, big picture. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leapinglizardto 0 #4 August 11, 2008 Yet! With this Loose Cannon Cowboy in office for about another, 160 days give or take. God only knows what else he's capable of.Even more frightening, given the fact that, that would be a wild card stunt to continue holding office. Quote only some tough talk only some tough talk Is exactly what we heard about Iraq. From the day he took office until the day we Invaded Iraq And.... How many military personnel lives lost & how many of the WMD that the invasion was based on, did we come up with?Hint : it rhymes with: NERO !It's pretty pathetic when you have to TELL people you're fucking cool Skymama «narrative»This thread will lock in 3..2..

Dumpster 0 #5 August 11, 2008 Uh - George can't do another term - Civil unrest in the area has been going on for years - Russia doesn't like Georgia since the collpase of the USSR. Lots of ethnic unrest in the area, like the whole Bosnia thing. Get your info from more than one source. Georgia wants to join NATO. Russia doesn't like that, guess thier still a little sore about the USSR going to shit and the whole Cold War thing. There's a whole other thread here about it anyways - Take a look....http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3292486;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread Easy Does It Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
