I'm still waiting on your dumb ass to enumerate which war expenses were W's and which were Obama's!

Then, I'm waiting for you to justify Bush's REDUCTION of U.S. revenues when they would have retired a good amount of that war debt.

Waiting for your slow mind to catch up with your fast mouth!

When you don't know something or when you make a false statement, and get called on it,you just quit participating and run your mouth about something else, don't you?

It's already been said but since you're going all the way back to Eleanor Roosevelt why not also remember the Staff edit, forbidden subject, CC who did the Mission Accomplished PHOTO-OP! Originally Posted by Little Stevie

Well, since we've still got Eleanor in there, I want to be sure that NO ONE misses my point that it was DUBYA who did the lying assed "Missioned Accomplished" landing on that carrier AND that we all know WHY he went AWOL from the Texas Air National Guard (the cushy job his Daddy got him so he wouldn't have to fight in Viet Nam) - the REASON he went AWOL for his last few months is that he couldn't have hoped to pass his flight physicals since his blood tests would have revealed the STAFF EDITED SHIT he was ingesting.

Ya think that shit they edited might have been too many Dr Peppers? Huh?

Shrub is, was and always will be a lucky sperm club LOSER who should thank God Daddy was born first!

It's amazing to me that all these folks who supposedly value the service of the men and women who volunteer for the military are allegedly all bent out of shape about who attends a memorial service. But they aren't the least bit upset of the real betrayal of these same folks by our elected leaders who send them into needless wars of choice that are inherently unwinnable, and which in fact, don't even have any real definition of victory.

To me, who shows up to greet a coffin is a trivial matter. But for someone to volunteer for the military is an incredible act of trust. That individual trusts our political leadership to make the correct choice as to when to commit our armed forces to combat. To not repeat the mistakes of Korea and Vietnam and try to solve political problems with military means. To not waste the precious blood of American youth on foolish political misadventures.

Yet all these supposed "summer soldiers and sunshine patriots" who use the occasion of a handful of these men and women's death to gain petty partisan political advantage, as as silent as the tomb when the real betray occurs. Did you hear them clamoring that Bush had the blood of American soldiers on his hands for six years? Did you hear them lamenting Bush being on near permanent vacation in Texas while this travesty of two wars of choice with no exit strategy took more and more lives? Did you hear one peep out of them then? I didn't.

You know, it's a smiley no-good son-of-a-bitch who will use the senseless death of a trusting soldier who died needlessly in the line of duty for a vainglorious chicken hawk's foolish political needs for his own political gain.

But I guess that's pretty much standard operating procedure for the Republicans these days. They will claim to support the military, but we know it's a lie. They try to assassinate the character of John Kerry, a man with two Purple Hearts and a Silver Star. Sen. Max Cleland, a man who had already received a Silver Star and a Purple Heart, volunteered for one more mission before being discharged in Vietnam. On that oast mission he lost three limbs to a grenade. The Republicans then run a political advertisement comparing him to Osama bin Laden. Some support.

Cheap theatrics may cut it with some, but not with me. The real betrayal is sending volunteers in where we have no national interest, not in sending an insufficiently large delegation to meet a hand full of caskets. Originally Posted by TexTushHog

You can't bash one without bashing the other.

And yes Whirlaway has his head up his ass posting and actually worrying about the shit that does not matter. Instead of worrying about not having anymore dead soldiers coming home, he fixates on who will or won't be at their funeral.
That’s like going hunting with a bunch of hungry cannibals and worrying about how you look.
With logic like that, it is no wonder this country is in the shape it is.

The only thing that is more shameful than his continuation of the Bush wars is his continuation of Bush's egregious violations of individual's Constitutional rights in the name of "national security." His record has been utterly despicable in that regard.

If he had a credible candidate running against him from the left in the Democratic primary, I'd be giving that candidate money, fundraising for that candidate, working for that candidate, and voting for that candidate.

And frankly, I think it's a shameful commentary on the state of the liberal wing of the Democratic Party that no one is running against him in the primary. I had hoped that Russ Feingold or Barry Sanders would run. It's a shame that neither did.
