    Not everyone. Just the ones who need blowing up. Bush haters forget his admonition to "terrorists and those who harbor them". Now their panties are all in a wad because war sucks. This is becoming a nation of pu$$ies.

    The problem with your analogy is those that harbor terrorists aren't just countries. I'm sure there are groups here in the US that are harboring terrorists so does that mean we need to start blowing up ourself?

    Wipe the fog from your face and maybe you will see past Bush's crap about "terrorists" blah blah blah blah..

    You can criticize those individuals and even the Republican party but you would be incorrect to blame the conservative philosophy for the current economic conditions. The fact is Bush has not governed as a conservative nor did the most recent Republican controlled congress. The Republicans got away from their conservative values and overspent. The most recent Republican controlled congress was nothing like the Gingrich lead congress that gave us the "Contract with America". As of now it looks like Democrats will make sweeping gains this year which may not be a bad thing in the long run. Hopefully this will lead to Republicans getting back to their roots of being conservatives.

    It's not the conservative philosophy that has lead to large deficits. It's a liberal philosophy of big government and out of control spending. I believe Obama's core beliefs are boarder line socialism. He won't be a president that will curtail domestic government spending. He will be one that makes the government exponentially larger. At least McCain is campaigning on cutting government waste. Americans of all classes pay enough taxes. Obama wants to increase taxes on the "rich". Not because the government needs the money but because it pleases his constituency by promoting class warfare.

    If it were up to me, every GD mosque in this country would be turned into a gigantic BBQ pit.

    That's great. I just hope you don't think you are a Christian by any means because you sir are not going to heaven..

    Yeah, what about that admonition. Osama and his cronies are hiding in Pakistan and have been since 2003. And what has Bush done about it. He kisses Pakistan's ass for seven years and counting. Your hero doesn't even follow his own medicine and you're trying to blame "bush-haters".

    Do you seriously think this country is doing just fine and we need to just keep on doing it? Do you seriously think that we can bomb our way out of every problem? Get real for a moment and tell me.

    Man, we are sick of arrogant swaggering republican war hawks who talk big and then can't get it done!

    So you're saying if I'm not a Christian then there's a chance?

    You think you know all there is to know don't you? If it was as easy as going into Pakistan and putting a bullet between that old bastard's eyes, don't you think it would have been done by now?

    Just because you hate Bush and have a Berkely 1960 attitude, that's no reason to hasten this country's ruination by electing someone just because he's not a Republican.

    I guess that depends on what religion you believe. Sounds like you follow the path of "kill the infidels" . Pot calling kettle black?

    Naa, just more than you. :grin:

    Something should have been done by now, don't you think? If we say that any country that harbors Bin Ladin is our enemy, shouldn't we mean it? The Paks could get him if they wanted to. Instead they are playing us for fools.

    Trying to repaint me with some tired old brush won't make the republican incompetence issue go away. The kind of backwards-looking, knee-jerk inflexibility that you demonstrate is hastening the ruination of the country. You just want to dig the hole we're in deeper and are only marginalizing yourself. The rest of the country is moving forward.
