I figure, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me!"  I love my country, and I still think our government and way of like is the best. But it only works if folks pay attention and guard their freedoms. Especially, against little donutwoods who "know what's best" for us and the rest of the world.

I don't think there are enough who will stand up against the rhetoric right now to impeach. The thing to do is get out the vote. Shake people up and make them think about what's going on around them. Turn off the reality TV and assess the reality Dubya got us headed for.


You make up facts to support your argument and I'm the mindless avacado?   I wish I had gone to school in arkansas.  They obviously teach it different there.

So you are telling me the citizens of Iraq would be better off under the rule of Saddam?

I used to fly with a lot of those guys in another game.  They're a good group of guys.

Twat? Arkansas? Man, the voices in yer head must be worse than the ones in mine. If you ck the warning label on yer meds you'll see it says "Do not take when driving, operating heavy equipment, bidding on ebay, or debating".

You're right, of course. Under Saddam they worried about secret police and death squads. Now they just have to worry about their next meal and glass of water and those other things that are a concern in a totally anarchic, "survival of the fittest" environment. Which, of course, means they are incapable of handling all that Texas Tea. So we'll sell it for them (cheap, to Dubya's friends) and use the funds to pay to rebuild what we destroyed (juicy contracts for more of Dubya's friends). You'd think the little brown fuggers would show more appreciation!

dude, you're making some good points but your bitterness is clouding your vision a bit I think.

While I agree that the administration isn't all they pretend to be.. hell which politician is?...  I think that the times have changed.. It'd be much tougher today 'hide body bags' and pump up the media like the did then.

Some of the reports from this war (media reports) were pissing off the admin because they couldn't 'screen' them first.

As far as hype goes though.. yeah.. it's there (again).
thank God for the internet and multiple sources of information.  At least one can try to get a less-biased view from it all.

Gee guys...have we done anything good and just as a nation?

Could one of you tell me who can save us this next November....I'm serious....I'de like your best shot.

The problem I have with some of you is that you focus entirely on the negative...if no negatives exist, you spin it. You refuse to give Bush any credit whatsoever....why can't you just be truthful and save the bandwidth....you can't stand Bush and no matter what he tries to do it won't be good enough.

Ya know why I can still smile after reading these posts? GWB will be a two term president.:)

Time to suck it up boys....sharpen your number 2's and get ready to whine like babies for another four.

And honestly....if this nation is so screwed up, why don't you move away and live where there is justice and true representation? Seriously....can you really be happy complaining all the time?

If I had the time and cared enough to do it, I bet a frightening collection of past posts would give, not only an accurate look at who some of you really are, but leave a clear impression of just how unhappy and negative some of you are.

It's crazy man.....you folks expect some utopia where all is well and mankind loves one another and no injustices exist.....stop kidding yourselves....mankind is broken and will never solve it's problems....it's the condition of mans heart that must be changed and none of us have the power to accomplish that in of ourselves.

Wow, flash-back time. "Love it or leave it!"  "My country right or wrong!"  

Excuse me, Rude, but I keep forgetting that Bill Clinton was the only President who was to be endlessly bashed, whether there were troops on foreign soil or not. The Bush pep-squad (complete with talking head cheerleaders) needs to wake up to reality. I'm no Slick Willie apologist, but I suspect he will go down in history as a pimple on the bellybutton of the presidency, whereas Dubya will be remembered as a war mongering, puss oozing boil.
