The left and the right are frauds. They both have the same agenda, except the left want to use social tactics to distribute money across the people, while the right wants to squeeze capitalism for all its worth. Even this agenda has been corrupted from each politicians capitalist mind. Its sort of entertaining watching the public left fight the public right. If it werent for the media, the "left" and the "right" wouldnt be so divided. I think you all need to realise that your fighting about nothing, and your following in your corrupt politcians footsteps. The war had to happen, and it was going to happen. Saddam didnt follow any fucking peace treaties or rules, SOMEONE was going to take his corrupt muslim ass off the stage and implant a fake democracy run by capitalism in Iraq. Its funny how much you guys represent your own parents or media figures. This is where you get your lame ass repeatitive arguments from. WAKE UP, THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT ARE THE SAME FUCKING THING.

I'm guessing the key work her is "recent" history since in recent history the economy hasn't been doing so good and maybe just recently it has gotten better. Using the money intended for social security that we are not supposed to touch is not a good sign of a great economy. Since it's expected that people will not have social security when they are of retiring age why am I still having to pay for it out of my paycheck?

Oh, and through all that, you didn't give a single solution. We're copying our parents and the media? Interesting that you know everyones situation, but nevermind that. I'm more interested in your argument that they are exactly the same (yet you yourself gave a distinct difference), that you in all probability picked up from the nearest anarchist.
Someone had to take out Saddams Muslim ass? When's someone going to take out Bush's christian ass (he might as well be catholic too, since the Pope threatened to excommunicate anyone voting for Kerry)? He doesn't follow international law (POW? I don't want to hear your loopholes. They're all complete bull, going around the law doesn't make you right), he disregards the international community (UN?). Now I'm not calling him Saddam, but come on. If Saddam had to go, theres good reason Bush has to too.

That's NOT photoshopped. It's Kerry trying real hard, and failing miserably, to get in "touch" with the NRA crowd.
Much like his constant falls on the slopes (accompanied by him swearing at Secret Service people for his own fault) or spills on his bike (followed by more finger pointing - at least Bush took his spill like a man).... Kerry is very much trying to "play the part" - creating a facade; and that's all it really is, a facade - Kerry is a priviledged, out-of-touch, silver-spooned lifetime politician, with little track record pointing to any concern for the average American.

More US Flag drapped coffins, 1 which bears my cousin... But at least he took that spill like a man, right? He stopped going after Bin Laden who killed 3,000 civilians... He goes to Iraq saying that we were in huge danger of an attack by Saddam on US soil, and this is easy to do because the citizens of America have been gripped by fear. So we go there, capture Saddam... Have no plan for a peace process going in... And 900 US Soilders die... And now we are told that it was a huge CIA and FBI issue and that the president was given bad intelligence.

Bush who when asked to appear under oath for the 9/11 comission said "I don't know about under oath, but I'd like to speak with them". Oh and not without Cheney, his boyfriend holding his hand. Let's define facade... A false, superficial, or artificial appearance or effect. Well the color-coding terror ratings put out by the Bush Administration was a great way to manipulate the American public and to keep everyone afraid that we will be attacked, and in history during a War Time Presidency you get behind and obey your leaders... That is a beautiful facade, and the basis of the Bush Administration's very existance, keep everyone afraid, and they'll do what we say...

WOW! What the hell are you talking about?! Bush was born in the richest area in America (New Haven, Conneticutt). With Daddy paving his way through education, buisness, and then into politics. He went to Yale with as a C student... He worked in Texas later owning a shitty oil company funded by his Daddy's middle-eastern friends, the leaders of Sadui-Arabia and even after several failures of the slew of buisnesses Bush took part in, and they still provide him with cash today, during his presidency... Why? Because Saudis have the largest oil supply and we're the #1 buyer.
How can you people support this asshole... He said he was gonna find Bin Laden, many got behind him, but I think a lot of people were so scared they said "Shit, he'll do". 3 years have passed and where is Bin Laden, we have the best military in the world and we can find him after 3 years... Then we go to war with Iraq, when Iraq had nothing to do with any terroristic plot on American soil EVER! And If you pull that "Oh, but he gassed his own people!!!" shit, yeah while the Reagan and Bush senior administrations supported him and funded him while they knew of these horrid acts.

"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies." Letter to President Bush, Signed by: -- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001
"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them." -- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002
"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." -- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." -- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002
"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..." -- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." -- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002
"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction." -- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002
"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do" -- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." -- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002
"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction." -- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002
"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..." -- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003 |
Congress was given the same information and made the same assumptions. I would have too. The president did not give this intellegence to Congress, but the CIA did. We overestimated Sadam's weapons, but some have been found.

They surrendered their nuclear program directly because of the Invasion of Iraq. The UN issued warning after warning, but never acted. The UN stands for useless negociator, in my opinion.

i dont think i was "making fun" of how kerry got the purple hearts. im stated how he got them, and that a shrapnel scratch does not deserve a purple heart.
if you think otherwise, well, pretty much every single war veteran should come home with a purple heart.
i was not trying to insult or discredit war veterans in any way.
and i do not call kerry a vietnam war hero, or even a war veteran. he is a traitor to the good men and women who fought beside him. he came home, threw away his medals, and called his fellow veterans lying sadistic cheats.
okay, maybe not EXACTLY that, but for all extents and purposes, he was out there with the "you are a bunch of baby-killers" crowd.
i really have a hard time respecting a man who vicously attacked his fellow veterans. these guys were doing their job, and put themselves in grave danger, all because they were told to. just to stop communism from spreading to SK.
this is what i meant by my post, and one of the reasons i have extremely little respect for kerry.

I don't really like Kerry as a candidate but the fact remains that Bush lied to us, it has been documented that he was always looking for a reason 2 attack Iraq. Before 9/11 the administration said that saddam had no WMD's but right after 9/11 they apparently popped out of nowhere. Now Bush tries 2 make up 4 going 2 war needlessly and loosing over 900 American lives by saying that "he had the knowledge 2 create WMD's(so does almost every country) and he hates America(so do most countries)". So now we go 2 war because people have information and thoughts. I think that that is a very big problem. An he says that the economy is the best it has been in recent history that means that after he became president the economy wend down by for arguments sake lets say 50% then it goes up by 5%. THAT IS NOT SOMETHING TO BRAG ABOUT. In conclusion Kerry is not the best candidate there is, but he is better than Bush and we need to get Bush out of the white house. I am not just some democrat; I am a Republican who realizes that Bush cannot be allowed to be elected again.

oh yes, and you say that kerry should have gotten the silver star, because he shot a sniper in the back and prevented him from killing other americans, and that was heroic? then in that case, every single veteran should have gotten a silver star who killed a viet cong, because they stopped the viet cong dude from killing any more americans. but silver stars dont get awarded like that. |
Darklink: there are records, they have been released. The Dr. Letson also confirmed the validity of these. That "Shrapnel scratch" left some shrapnel in Kerry's thigh if you want some more proof. Most scratches don't leave metal in someone's body, put it doesn't really matter. You can get a purple heart without bleeding.
I didn't say anything about the silver star, but it wasn't for killing someone. The silver star was for gallantry.
The bronze star was for dragging a fellow soldier back into his swift boat after taking more shrapnel "scratches" to his shoulder after a mine exploded. He saved the guy's life.
Sounds like a hero to me... hopefully we can show some respect for our soldiers and not buy this smear campaign. It's the only thing Kerry has going for him, therefore naturally people would try and discredit it. They have been trying since Nixon.

I'm not lying, it's public information. It's what Kerry has going for him... rich kid chooses to go to vietnam, earns medals... comes back a young man and gives a very famous speech. Of course there is going to be a lot of money spent on discrediting this... GWB did the same thing to Mccain in the primaries... it worked. Mccain would have been a superior president too.

How do you know Kerry will be a good president? He is an upper crust elitist, with upper crust elitist friends. He opposed the Vietnam war, didn't he? Yet he still went? It just seems like he's been playing the crowd on issues. How can this man make up his mind on anything? I bet he doesn't even have a favourite song, or movie.

I don't know, I actually think he'll be a one term president and won't get much done. I personally think he's an arrogant career politician. It was less of a comment on Kerry or Mccain and more of a comment on GWB.
I don't buy all this "waffling" rhetoric as well. Mccain was a "waffler" as well. Kerry has 20 years of record, I'm sure he's changed his mind a lot.
some say he's a "waffler", someone else says he's the "biggest liberal in the senate". Seems to me thats a bit of a condradiction so I really don't know what to believe. Doesn't really matter anyway, right?
| QUOTE |
Mr. Chips, what is your favorite movie? Is it the same favorite movie from when you were 6? There are a lot of our soldiers in Iraq who are very opposed to the war there, but it's their duty. I don't call them hypocrites either. |
ok, you have a point...opinions do change...I didnt think I would get such a response...I respect what the troops are doing, I never questioned that, but Kerry came from a wealthy background...he never was forced to do it like it is his duty. If anything he imposed the duty on himself...god bless him for that....but he is not your average soldier...like colonel32 said, he is a career politician with political motives. I don't know if he's arrogant, however. That's something we'll have to see if he gets in

| Before 9/11 the administration said that saddam had no WMD's but right after 9/11 they apparently popped out of nowhere.

ALL quotes pre 9/11:

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face." --Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998
"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983." --Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998
"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." Letter to President Clinton, signed by: -- Democratic Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others, Oct. 9, 1998

Someone please make an intelligent response instead of ignoring my post and rambling on.
no takers?
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Excellent post.
Ill be a taker!
The Clinton Admin didnt send US Soldiers over to Iraq to fight a war... And it was the Bush Admin that did... And it was also Colin Powell and Condy Rice who were quoted in Febuary and July of 2001 saying that Saddam had no capabilities concerning WMDs. That was the same Admin that used ironicly faulty intel to go to war... Most of you right wing people keep saying it was the bad intel, not George Bush lying!!!! Well seeing your post and taking the bad intel point into thought, could it be... that Bill Clinton's admin had that same bad intel as well??? I Just want to know if you feel safer knowing that Saddam is gone? While also noting that this country that has never been attacked by Iraq, nor has ever had a single American civilian ever been killed by Iraq prior to Bush's war.
Here is the link of the video footage of Powell and Ms. Rice just to back my shit up.
Im not shure if your allowed to swear so dont kick me out lol! But think about that valient hero now.

You are fucking ignorant and retarded... You sound like a stupid teenager who has been corrupted by his parents to belive this neo conservative propaganda that Kerry didnt deserve his medals. It was a Republican government in office when he came back from Vietnam to be honored for his service and given the 3 purple hearts. Its absolutely sickening what you're saying... That he dove in the way of bullets so he could go home?! At least he went, asshole! Unlike George Bush who was a fuckin' draft dodger, yeah what leadership he shows... Ive heard some pretty terrible and uneducated shit in my time, but Jesus Christ... You take the cake my friend.

Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent. Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike?
If this threat is permitted to fully and suddenly emerge, all actions, all words and all recriminations would come too late. Trusting in the sanity and restraint of Saddam Hussein is not a strategy, and it is not an option. |
I hate the fact that Amercia is divided. The extreme right pushes so hard to support the president that they overlook any errors he could of made. The extreme left calls Bush a murderer for oil. I want Bush to win this election- but his winning will not solve America's problem of hatred for each other-neither will John Kerry's win, for that matter. This hatred has grown exponentially with the media- Fox News- CNN- both bias, and both denying it.
I dont know how anyone who has a bush sig and/or avi can be taken seriously.
What is so special about him that make people blind to any fault he has and make them almost worship him?
Are there sibliminal messages in the news or something?
There has to be some explanation!
Hypnosis in schools.. What is it!!!
How has Bush created this aura of greatness???????????????????????????????????????

I think you made a pretty good point.
But, more hate is coming from the left.
Right?
In responce to the responce to my post: I watch MSNBC.
I watch Scarbrough Country, I like that show, I yell at it more than I enjoy watching it but I thought MSNBC's coverage of the Democratic National Covention was superb. Scarbrough and Pat Buccanan all said good things about Kerry's speech, and rightfully so. But overall (looking at all their shows) they are very far to the right, MSNBC seems right down the middle and that's how I like it.
For a good time call 1-800-ORKINMAN
I'll tell everyone, it doesn't matter if Bush or Kerry wins. There is no way we'll stop terrorism. It's the choice to be good or evil that makes us human and until we stop being human, there will be terrorists. The only thing we can do is keep them in check. Like General Black Jack Pershing did:
ok

Your story is a fabrication of the truth. Pershing was known for his resolve in understanding and respecting his enemy, whomever it may be. Jack Pershing is a true american hero, but he had no such exploits involving the desecration of muslim fighters' corpses.

Economy A top economic advisor to Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry said the public won't hear Kerry's financial plans until after he's elected - if he's elected.
In the Aug. 2 cover story of "Business Week," former Clinton administration treasury secretary Robert Rubin said, "I don't think you can make proposals to try to dig out of this hole until you've gotten elected ... If you start to put out proposals now, they would be vigorously attacked and they would in effect become tainted so they couldn't be used." War on Terror
Sen. John F. Kerry told ABC News, "I will have significant, enormous reduction in the level of troops" in Iraq by the end of his term, but he refused to say how he would accomplish that. Elect me and find out, he indicated. I've been involved in this for a long time, longer than George Bush," Kerry told George Stephanopoulos, the host of ABC's "This Week." "I've spent 20 years negotiating, working, fighting for different kinds of treaties and different relationships around the world. I know that as president there's huge leverage that will be available to me, enormous cards to play, and I'm not going to play them in public. I'm not going to play them before I'm president."

I was under the impression that the whole point of debates and elections was for the public to analyze and weigh the policies of the candidates. Apparently the new trend is to hide your incompetence and show it's ugly head later.
"Hire me, but please don't ask me how I'm going to do the job before making your decision."
I believe a book was released today that details Kerry's plans all there in black and white for everyone to see. Get it, read it, vote anyone but Bush(preferably Kerry).

When democrats run for president, they spend one year promising voters everything, then four years explaining why they couldn't deliver. The only difference with kerry is his promises are much more vague, in fact, the only thing he seems to be really specific about, when he guarantees anything, is that he isn't george w bush, which seems to be a winning point among idiots anyway.
