I thought it was. I love the night life. I love the booty. Guess that was just me. Hopelessly straight, in a PC world.

Sitting back and throwing rocks again, Jochen?? Waiting for "bad" things to happen so you can gloat over American(particularly Conservative American) failures? Do you ever see a positive outcome or is your negativist attitude just part and parcel of being a Leftist/Socialist Liberal??

The biggest loser of the '92 Election was the American People. Through public apathy and a quirk(Perot) Clinton won an election, and the rest is embarrasing history.

Who knows, but my guess is that President Bush will crush whatever Liberal-weanie candidate the Democrats(who will use their usual Race-Baiting, Class Warfare, All-Conservatives-are-Nazis tactics) throw into the next election.

BTW, Jochen, how's that crow taste??

Extreme liberalism died,in this country, the second that first plane slammed into that first tower. It is a Golly-geen shame it took something that horrible to wake this country up. But we have woke up.

I know! They are still making nosies. But they are being eye balled, by anybody that has the capacity to think.

Hell. Heroldo is moving to Fox News. How weird is that?

Even liberals are beginning to wonder why clinton did nothing, when bin laden was offered to him by the Sudanese. Or when Americans were killed aboard the U.S.S. Cole, in Somalia, at the African embassy.
The first time the WTC was attacked, clinton could have done exactly what President Bush has done. All clinton lacked was any leadership ability. And of course he would have been forced to borrow his balls back from hillary.

Exactly which critical overseas bases would we have operated from during this time frame? It's like saying we should just go out and acheive world peace tomorrow -- great idea until you start looking at the details.

As I stated in another post, the decline of "human intelligence" predates the Reagan years. Nor was there any particularly pressure for more action related to these events, even from mainstream Republicans. There were practical impediments to firmer action before Sept. 11 that have since disappeared. It wasn't an issue in the last election and wouldn't be now without the events of Sept. 11. Nor was Bush moving in Middle Eastern affairs with any firmness before that date.

And he is still focused on SDI, which is not in the best interest of the military or the American people. Strategic studies have shown that any SDI system below 100 percent effectiveness does little to influence the agressor, or make the defenders job wany easier. But our massive retailatory capability -- MAD -- does as it has for 50 years. Washington is Washington, that's why I would have voted for McCain if he had made it past the primaries. I disagreed with many of his policies, but at least he gave an indication that he wanted to cut the corporate cash out of politics.

As noted in the strategic analyst site, our CV strength is faily weak when applied for such an operation. Another 10 carriers or so and perhaps we can generate an effective sortie rate.

They are bonceing rocks over there. What we have was adequate. Of course, that is hind site.

My main point is that it is the leadership of Bush and his administration that has formed the alliance. About the only place anyone would follow clinton, is into a nudie bar. And then, only if there was no cover charge.

I think Bush has done a fine job, make that an excellent job at adapting to and handling a very difficult task. I just think his job has been a lot easier to do given the scope of the WTC attack. By the same token, I think Clinton was an effective international politician and he seemed able to get enemies (N. Ireland, Middle East) to the table, though, without continuous effort the gains have withered away in the past year or so. The belated bombing campaign in Yugoslavia (sp?) got solid results in the face of political opposition at home. A bit late, perhaps, but I have to lay the blame at Europe's feet for that.

I don't think either party, or any politician, lives up to the “ideal” they project to their supporters. To be a successful politician of any stripe you have to be a politician first, which means a willingness to expediently compromise ideals and play with the truth as needed – you can’t make it all the way otherwise. Mr. Smith didn't really make it to Washington in the 1940s, and he sure the hell can't today.

If you got rid of every politician who had a BJ from an aggressive young admirer, or put his or her political interest above the common good in all but the direst of situations, Washington would become a ghost town

Hell, look at the latest economic stimulus package, a lot more "gimmee" than patriotism there by both parties, and with our budget surplus a thing of the past it’s a bit scary.

It’s like professional wrestling -- both parties need an “evil” to rally their supporters on election day. In the end, the myth is better than the reality. I believe middle class Republicans are about as well served by their party as the inner city poor are served by the Democrats -- which is not very much at all. And I trust them all about as far as I can throw them.

What a bunch of brainless Rush LimBites!

That said, I am one of the MAJORITY of Americans to vote for the other guy AND I'm sure we are better off with Bush. I am happy with the job Dubya has done. I was thinking about GWB the other day when it hit me.........He is freakin Truman in a Republican blue suit. No nonsense. Straight from the hip. Calls em as he sees em. Maybe just what this counrty needs about now. Glad he's my President.

Now why don't all you Limbites who have been trying unsuccessfully for 8 years of the most prosperous economy in our country's history to hang a rats tail on Clinton give it up.

(flicks the bait to avoid that stump........)

Dowding you just put out the party line, dont ya comrade.....

I was talking to this awful little communist socialist vegetarian non car driving USA hating leftist "peace protestor" squeak (she put up the sign " AMERICA MADE THE FIRST STRIKE, NOT OSAMA BIN LADEN") at my school. And she just rattled that same line, "but didnt we support bin laden in afghanistan against the soviets".... WHO GIVES A diddly if we supported him when we were allies, just because somebody who used to be your friend turns on you and tries to kill you doesnt change the fact that that THEY TRIED to KILL you and that you have to deal with them now. Does it corade? What whoopee difference does it make if we helped him when we were on the same side? Now we are not on the same thanks to his betray of us! If anything we should be even more pissed about it!

Honestly Dowding is there some "I hate the USA" newsletter that all you bastards get because every single one of your degenerate kind ive talked to recently has the same diddlying lines over and over again.

Pathetic................

Why should i expect the Government to "serve" me at all? I'm for paying my share of taxes to provide for the common defense and to help little old ladies and hungry children, but i mainly want the Government to leave me the f*** alone.

The rest of the population can get off it's bellybutton and support themselves. Enough of this "We're the Government, we're here to help you" BS. The Democrats cynically promise their minions a free lunch while stealing money from society's producers.

At least the Republicans want to curb Federal spending, reduce taxes, and keep a strong military. The idiot Liberal Democrats were AGAINST every piece of weaponry used in Iraq, Kosovo, and now Afghanistan and were willing to fund every stupid Social Program that some Socialist dreamt up. Tell me who is poorly "served" by their political party again. Don't put MY party in the same boat as those Welfare State Liberal Democrat morons.........
