  1. Of course Islam is not the enemy, Islamofacism is. I give Bush a lot of credit for having the guts to call it what it is. Some will say that abortion clinic bombers should then be called Christianfacists, and I agree, abortion clinic bombers are Christianfacists. The big difference is that such Christianfacists are aggressively pursued and prosecuted by the authorities. Much of the Islamic world turns a blind eye to the Islamofacists because they are sympathetic to their cause or because they are afraid of retribution. To say we shouldn't declare war on Islamofacists because innocents will die is an argument in favor of pacifism as a policy. We didn't worry about the general population of Japan and Germany holding a grudge against us in WWII, why is it so different now, when the toll on the innocent civilian population is so much less? I think the Islamofacists are an enemy that must be fought with violence, do you agree? Some think non-violent methods will work, that they can be contained, I do not. The Germans and Japanese had a true change of heart at the end of the war. They realized their leader's imperialist goals had brought them to destruction. They just wanted to live peaceful lives without the vision of world conquest. Where is the Arab world's next Anwar Sadat? We need a few copies of him to show his head and speak up.

  2. Thanks for the reference to the news story. Do you think he's right? I don't. I believe he can take responsibility, no doubt. But he would be taking responsibility for failure.

  3. I understand that some think Islamofacists are the fault of the western world (it is what the Islamofacists want the western world to accept). Many do not. They want to impose their Islamic law on the rest of the world, it is their stated goal. Al Qaeda is now in Iraq, I think we should fight them wherever they are. If you think the Islamofacists can be fought against and contained by other means, then I can agree - that is a debate worth having. If you think that appeasment will work, that the Islamofacists have some limited set of demands that can be accomodated, then we are worlds apart. As I said before, I could entertain the idea that Iraq isn't capable of handling freedom and democracy - that they aren't worth liberating. That means we should have just ousted Hussein and left them to their own, perhaps to have another similar leader come to power and have to decide what to do at that time. I can see the possible logic in that, and I think that is exactly where we will be if we just pull our troops out as quickly as possible now. I do think that it was worth getting rid of Hussein, though. They have said explicitly to us - they want a world wide Islamic state and are willing to use violence to achieve that goal. If that isn't the same as the crusades, I don't know what is. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

  4. I believe there will likely be war in the middle east, and will need to be involved in it, for many, many years to come. It will likely include Iran. The Islamofacists want you to believe that their violence against all that is western is due to some specific wrongs done to them in the past, but it is not. They will not stop their crusade until they achieve their goal. Getting our troops out of Iraq will not stop the war against us. If we decide that Iraq isn't worthy of the effort to liberate them, then that is actually a conclusion I can understand. But the war against us will not stop, it will just move. In order for war against the western world to stop, there will need to be Arab leaders like Anwar Sadat that will have a true change of heart. When that happens is not something the western world can decide. The only other possibility is to let them win, have a worldwide Islamic state - that is their stated objective. The Islamofacists are the crusaders now, not us. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

  5. Do you mean McNamara or Morris? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
  6. Rules are one thing, what actually happens at a DZ are another. Punching clouds and passing very close by to them does happen at some DZs in the US. It is one of those things that enemies of a DZ can use against them - reporting it to the authorities. It involves more risk, but it sure is fun. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
  7. Are you claiming to not be guilty of that? People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
  8. Kinda like how a young John Kerry was peddling a bunch of made up bullshit to congress a few decades ago. He wanted the public to believe the stories he was peddling characterized the military in general. Same crap. I'm wish you didn't have to tolerate this sort of venom. Thank you.

  10. She's fair game, she's threatening to run for office and using that thread to try to influence a sitting leader to impeach the President, and she's been campaigning politically with great vigor for years now. Just where do you get off claiming she has some pitty shield after all the radical political accusations she's fostered and promulgated including this? Her dead son is not a political immunity shield. She's an extremely inconsistent freak-show who has exploited her son's death in furtherance of a political campaign. That's her prerogative but it's everyone else's to subject her to some well deserved scrutiny and critique. If she can't stand the heat she should get out of the kitchen, which she did, then she didn't then she....? Hurumph hurumph! Well spoken!

  11. Can you please explain how you could make a connection between "lack of political correctness" and being in favor of pardoning a convicted serial perjurer? What Fred Thompson has shown is that he is completely unqualified to be a public official of any kind whatsoever. Libby was tried, convicted and sentenced in accordance with the laws of the land. To condone pardoning Libby shows utter contempt for the USA, the Constitution, and the rule of law. To even consider voting for a douchebag like Thompson is pretty pathetic, even for righties. Perjury is a high crime against our system of law. To condone perjury in any way is completely against everything that America stands for. Have you no shame? No sense of right and wrong? The USA is in a world of hurt because the righties have been fucking things up since Reagan was elected. The war on the middle class has been wildly successful. The Republicans are very proud of their success. Are there no instances, present or past, where you thing the criminal justice system has gone awry - where a pardon is appropriate? We might disagree on which are worthy of a pardon, but surely there must be some. Bill Clinton thought there were plenty of people worthy of pardons, despite the fact they were "tried, convicted and sentenced in accordance with the laws of the land." It should be added that Bill found many people worthy of a pardon only after they contributed enough money to the right "cause/library". That is usually considered bribery. Have YOU no shame?

  12. I like the shirt. He's very appealing due to his lack of political correctness. An example is that he's not afraid to say he would give a full pardon to Libby.

  13. Your conclusion of what is the main reason for ill will and biggest obstacle is wrong. It shows your bias.

  14. Do you think that if the Israelis had not won all the wars, that there would have been a loss of territory? For some reason it is expected that Israel should not gain territory after winning multiple wars, but the same is not expected of their enemies. Israel has shown the willingness to give up such territory in the past, when the other side truly seeks peace.

  15. I'd be willing to help her out, but she has to help me out first. People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
  16. Shouldn't the side that loses a war expect to lose territory? The only way that the losers of a war should expect something different is if they have a true change of heart away from their previous ways. Japan and Germany after WWII did that, the Palestinians have not. I guess if you think the previous ways were not bad, then you would think differently.

  17. Why is the focus on carbon dioxide instead of methane? I thought methane was a much more effective greenhouse gas.

  18. I believe Ford, GM, and Chrysler were in agreement on this, but I know Honda didn't complain, and never have as they were periodically raised. I wonder if any of the foreign mfgrs did.

  19. I KNOW that a jumbo jet didn't hit the Pentagon. It was a 757, a single aisle aircraft with the same diameter as a 737.

  20. If the allegations are true, is any of it illegal, or just unethical/embarrassing? I think spyware should be illegal. What is your opinion of the company if they did everything except the snooping? Setting up a fake download site to catch users making illegal downloads sounds like a typical police type tactic.

  21. I think a campaign to heighten awareness about the need to heighten awareness to be much closer to a circle jerk.

  22. The funny thing about the opinion of Gore being charismatic is that he was definitely not thought of as charismatic during the 2000 election. He doesn't seem to have changed.

  23. Of course it is hard/costly to store much energy with batteries. One way to store energy from a windmill is to put them near hydroelectric dams, and use the excess energy from the windmill to pump water back up into the dam, so that the dam's generator can run at a greater capacity.

  24. I think Dateline should have to apologize for that lie at the beginning and end of every Dateline show.

  25. I heard a fan at one of the concerts talking about Gore's speech to the crowd, "He's so charismatic." People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am
