I believe his name was Klink.... Colonel Klink. He was bald and easily fooled too, just like you-know-who.

strk said he'd vote for a plant or the GOP POTUS

speaks volumes of his outlook on politics

STRK seems a bit miffed. Really upset with BUSH and isn't afraid to tell you how wrong you are for likeing him.

Imagine STRK when he gets old if he's this bitter at a young age.

They fought for the Red Army. I came from the USSR in 1981. You can contend their socialistic status if you want. It's all the same to me. Soviet Russia was the epitome of oppressive, especially to a Jewish family. If knowing oppression personally is a criterium for appreciating the US, you can say I'm fairly well versed.

What, exactly, do you suggest I research further?

If it's Kerry's war record, I do believe it would be beating a dead horse. As I've said before, his status as a veteran does not make him a good politican. At least not to me.

Back to the original point, no disrespect to your granduncles but the Russian army might not give decorations like the US army.  The US army didnt even give out medals to enlisted until after the civil war iirc.

I suggest you research the estate tax and how it works and the two tax cuts under Bush*.  Follow the money.  Think about who these policies are going to assist - the ones who need it least.

Someone said that the true measure of society is how it treats its most helpless.  In the US as in the rest of the world the majority of the people that fit that description are poor children.  So why should children go to bed hungry while rich guys like Bush* get 30k tax break?

Speaks volumes about our current president imo.  By the way, I used to be a republican.

Pigs are on ranches..Farms..I even seen a few in suburbia as pets. Oh and though he is from big money..Don't mean he doesnt relate to folks. Kerry carries himself as that type that would be looking down his nose at you while he takes your contibution.

There isn't a ton of Cowboys in Texas either....As I said I'm not sure where your from..BUT I live here...and I know...there are a TON of HATS and No Cattle types here. I don't even own a truck no more dad gone it..I went out and bought me one of the fan-dangled regular old FOo Foo Cars called a Corvette. ANd I even wear Boots when Driving it..Can you imagine that?

We do sell Boots with Spikes on em for playing Golf though. Helps with that Cow Pasture Pool so's ya dont slip on none of that there Horse Crap or Bull Sh**. (Spits Backy Juice) By Gods we even has a regular Car Lot here in Texas. No Wagons allowed fer traded though. Only Horses with gooood teeth allowed on da lot. (spits more backy juice)

SMoke and Mirrors you say?  Yer what we call in South Texas    LOCO:rofl

Well Im from Virginia and we raise a lot of hogs in Virginia
(ever heard of smithfield, or old va ham?), in fact I grew up on a farm that had hogs and cattle.  Anyway, I have never ever heard a hog farm called a hog ranch or a pig ranch.

After carefully reading the posts all I can say is ...HUH?

Is it to late to start a write in campaign for Alfred E. Neuman?

"What, me worry?"

Were any of you guys around during Vietnam? Hell, Walter Freakin' Cronkite said the War was a lost cause and we should pull out. A vet protesting more poeple being sent off to die in a hopeless battle is not only doing what needs to be done, he is doing his patriotic duty. I suppose you guys think we should have kept pouring more boys in there to be killed. What a bunch of Keyboard Heroes you are.

There are people today that feel the same about the Afganistan war and the Iraq war. There are people that felt that way about WW1 and WW2.

There is a pretty good argument that if the US armed forces had been freed from political interference they could have militarily defeated the North in 1967.

The problem then was the US was actually fighting the Russians and the Chinese and they did not want to esculate the war to include attacks on the supply ships and trains etc as it may have spiraled out of control.

However the cold war was being fought in Vietnam and the countries that became communiest during that time are still some of the worst basket cases in Asia today. Vietnam was not all bad nor was it fought properly. I would have been against the way the war was being fought (why not friggen bomb the hell out of the Ho Chi Min trail in Laos or Cambodia and anywhere else supply was coming from). It was wrong to put soldiers lives in danger for political cowardice. If you are going to fight a war then fight it to win. If not get out. For that reason I could identify with some of the arguments against the war.

CaptPork, You and I may disagree politically, but I'm glad you were able to immigrate here and I'm proud of my country for allowing this immigration. <> to you and your family, and a belated welcome.
