Who would have overthrown what government? We overthrew the Taliban. Have people forgotten that we're currently fighting two separate wars here? __________________________________________________ I remember over a year ago reading how the internal overthrow of Saudi Arabia was very close to happening. I think this two front war probably bought more time for the current government. __________________________________________________ >Sure we created more terrorists, but it was just a matter of time for >them to come on the scene for the giant jihad against the great > satan's homeland. Better to stop them in their tracks over there. Strange as it seems, you create more enemies when you kill someone's children than when you don't. They don't hate us because we are the great satan, they hate us for the same reason we hate Al Qaeda. __________________________________________________ No civilized person gets a charge watching children die, but it happens. Remember Al Qaeda attacking us around the world and finally in New York? That's the reason we are at war with them. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I think a lot people at one time thought about it, but would not seek help because of their job. I can just imagine the quick response a pilot would get from Oklahoma City after admitting he/she visited a psychiatrist or required professional counseling since their last FAA flight physical. You would be kissing your career goodbye in a lot of vocations to include the military. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Good for you. You deserve it. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I disagree with your assumtion that this was inevitable. The previous 10 years had shown that it was possible to "manage" the Iraq problem without substantial loss of American lives or treasure. Remember that it was NOT Iraq that attacked us on September 11, 2001, but citizens of Saudi Arabia under the ultimate command of another citizen of Saudi Arabia in Afganistan. I completely agree that it is time for us to get out, but then again, I still don't see the reason we went in to begin with. "We" didn't want Saddam out; GWB did. "We" wanted to get the terrorists. Unfortunately, we've only created more. If we had not gone into Iraq, these Saudi citizens would be doing the same thing in Afganistan only more than they are doing today. If we had not gone into Afganistan there was a possibility they would have overthrown their own government and be using their total resources for a bigger 9/11 style attack on our country. Sure we created more terrorists, but it was just a matter of time for them to come on the scene for the giant jihad against the great satan's homeland. Better to stop them in their tracks over there. As for Vietnam: they never attacked our homeland like these people. My 2cents..... Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Quote The fact is, America has turned into a bleeding heart breeding ground. The outward stupidity of the masses about american history is what will eventually destroy us................. I like your whole thread with the above in particular. My wife just spent a whole year trying to bring kids up to state and federal standards. It was all math and no history. Some had little English skills and many had incompetent parents. They have no idea why they are Americans. American culture is in danger of being lost. Some will tell you it's already gone. I haven't given up yet. Just wonder if the local kids know why they are shooting off fireworks and it's very dry. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Well....yes.....it is. Yes, but for how much longer? We are such a young nation not necessarily learning from our mistakes

What a dink, modifying my words. Simple things - simple minds Not hardly kid. It was not intentional. Just what do you mean by dink? For some of us it's like gook or other hate words.EDITED TO: ADD BTW don't go back to school. It sounds like some liberal commie pinko got your soul the first time. You need to develop some good work ethics and prepare for a dismal future. Kid? I could be a grandfather, berley, but still a gramp and I'm a kid..... It was not intentional. Uh, ok. You modified my words and posted them as mine - be man enough to admit it......... Don't flatter yourself comrade. All you get is my name, rank, and serial number. Just what do you mean by dink? I'm thinking of how many ways that can be taken. For some of us it's like gook or other hate words. Wouldn't that be, "Chink?" Quit weakly attempting to make yourself a victim - you know what I meant......... No, I don't know what you meant. Dink is a term to describe my adversary 6 months out of college with a BA in Sociology (Ironic, ain't it?) Would North Vietnamese or Viet Cong ring a bell. Victim my ass, I was too busy trying to kill these poor people to be a victim. I got hit the first tour, but I was never a victim. Unfortunately some described the whole Vietnamese population as dinks. BTW don't go back to school. It sounds like some liberal commie pinko got your soul the first time. Instead of aimless rhetoric, why not discuss what makes an American conservative and what makes a, "liberal commie pinko" and the merits of each. I'm sure you are inable......... Would you really listen? Let your fingers search with the keys. How about Ronald Reagan and Hillary in 2008 websites? You need to develop some good work ethics and prepare for a dismal future. Why, I'm working on my second degree and I'm entering a very lucrative field - life will be great.......... Does this mean some kind of government give-away entitlement positon? 2008 is coming up quick. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I agree with Muenkel. You put into the system all those years and now you get to collect. Have no second thoughts. It's yours. Keep the faith and get well. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

Quote It used to be a great place before our elite communist party-style congress turned inward away from the people. Now they only care about their own mega retirement and health care. Filling their war chests with money from corporate America keeps these assholes going. They love to see dissent and unrest among us poor slobs so they can carry on business as usual (I bet they love Speakers Corner). Trouble is, short of a revolution, how do we take this place back?

I dug this out of some work jokes: THANK YOU FOR NOT SMOKING Cigarette smoke is the residue of your pleasure. It contaminates the air and pollutes my hair and clothes, not to mention my lungs. THIS TAKES PLACE WITHOUT MY CONSENT I have a pleasure also; I like a beer now and again. The residue from my pleasure is urine. Would you be annoyed if I stood on a chair and pissed on your head and clothes without your consent? Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I agree. Sadly, American culture is turning into a third world outhouse. Most of the kids never heard of Iwo Jima or Normandy, and they lack a father figure. This is the end result. Yep, it is gonna cost us. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I've always been fond of "people"

I don't think you are crazy. I once got orders for Fort Polk and just extended for another 6 mos in a different war. You are a professional and the money is good. Why not? Be careful. Wish I could be there with you. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

I think you are right. When my granddaughter swings, I hang upside down and watch. She gets a charge out of this. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

With this many troops short of a real draft, you are bound to have a few bad people that bring discredit upon the military. We had a Lieutenant in Vietnam let his platoon turn into a killing mob, but this was not the norm. This did not happen everyday like the liberals would have you believe. Today, most of our men and women serve honorably. They want to do a good job, and understandably, they want to get home safe.They resent the few who are a disgrace.

there are pranks, like what you described w/ the principle... lol, that was good, but then there's shit like what these folks did... that falls far outside the realm of simple pranks. If it happened to you, I doubt you'd see it the way you do. Sinker, I agree with you 100%. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.

It's like running out of gas in the middle of a thunderstorm at night and killing yourself and your passengers: your wife can always find a lawyer to sue Piper or Cessna.

Friend? He needs a friend in a white jacket, along with a straight jacket and serious medication. (laying off the crack-pipe would probably help, too) I agree. This guy needs to be locked up. He is very lucky he was not shot or run over. I would hope the police do get a copy of the tape. Do your part for global warming: ban beans and hold all popcorn farts.
