If you want to dismiss the unprecedented part, then find another person that was a Chief of Staff, Head of the Joint Chiefs, or any other high ranking general officer position where the replacement was named a year and a half early. I don't have to worry about dismissing it, you have to show where Shins
A) proposes something that would be truly an American idea, not a concervitive I think you need to understand that conservative ideas are also American. I hope this was a miss-statement, because if you truly feel this way, maybe that's why the DNC membership is dropping so fast. There are more then ju
Do you have the same arguments to make for the Secretary of the Army? No, I was only talking about Gen. Shinseki of the Army. Mainly because I know his story and how review boards meet. (I have been on some myself) <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bgColor=#FFF394 class="mb-Body-Qu
It was pathetic how he stole the Black Beret from Ranger who revered it, (because he earned it) and forced it on the heads of those who resented it. Ya, he wound up giving them buff berets. Nothing like adding insults to injury. The interesting thing is, I almost never see a Ranger in them anymore. M
Gen. Eric K. Shinseki of the Army Not to take this off subject anymore then it needs to be but: You do know that Gen Shineski was one of the most despised and least respected Army Commanders of his time by those who served under him? As a 1LT. stationed in Germany, his soldiers placed warning letters
Reply #50 By: Draginol - 1/30/2005 1:51:11 PM By your definition, nearly all military actions were wrong. Explain why we invaded Europe in 1944? Because based on what you were saying, it was wrong too. Germany wasn't threatening us and by 1994 it was pretty obvious that Germany was no longer any sort of threat to the Unite
I would like to say “Three cheers for the people of IRAQ”. HIP, HIP, HURRAY HIP, HIP, HURRAY HIP, HIP, HURRAY <img src="../images/smiles/events.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddle
In other words, Iraqi anti aircraft batteries firing on U.S. and British jets was an act of war, unlike your crime scenario.Exactly and the airforce should have taken them out--as simple as that. The problem is that we did take them out. But Saddam simply bought more and put some poorly trained Joe con
Bravo, ParaTed2k. Of those questions you asked, I would say yes to all. But especially the second half of each question. It is those who will help other people to vote for freedom, that will most likely keep their own. It is those who refuse to help others to receive the freedom to vote, that are most likely to lose their own freedoms. That's My Two Cents
Yes, I would have a back bone to fight for freedom. Good old Teddy realy is showing his spinless back bone at not letting others elect thier Governmental representatives. It is a sad time when members of a major (will be minor at this rate) America political party does not want to give others a chance at freedom and liberty.<img src="../images/smiles/grim.gif" bor
That may well be but when I was in school or my sons in school they taught birth control. Abstinence only is a newer devlopment in teaching curriculum. When I went through high school 17 years ago, they did teach abstinence first, then showed us how to use a condom. But abstinence always first. <br
Reply #31 By: DNCdude - 1/25/2005 10:16:06 PM Good links DNC to the rare times resently (in my view) that it did happen. I just wish it would occure more often and would not sound like a cat fight either. That's My Two Cents</fon
If dubya even TRIED to work with the opposition he would have accomplished something in his first term. NCLB and the election reform bills come quickly off the top of my head. That was at the start of his time in office. Bothsides have worked together then (even if they didn't produce anything good IM
Let me get this strait.... If your a Republican, your either a raciest Red neck hick with no education or a millionaire. Since I'm not a hick, millionaire or a Republican, then why did me and over 20% of my fellow Americans (that don't fall into your equation above) decide to vote for President Bush. Maybe we are not buying the Democrats enlightened views, l
Final update for this one. Winnah is Mz. Rice. Sen Boxer ran her mouth for NOTHING! Final vote this round. For Mz Rice 16, against 2 (wanna take a guess just who the 2 dissenters were? Kerry and Boxer. Why ain't I surprised.) Now it's the senates turn. HOLY COW!!!!!! I CAN NOT BELEIVE IT. I'm not surp
Lee, thanks for the interpretation, but I think it's a major stretch of the imagination to use the term luddite that way. I think so too. But thats the best I could come up with, with out just saying that it sound good with lefty loopy. <br

What about all those Republican party offices during the elections that was getting ran sacked and shot at. Wait a second I thought.... Aren’t the Dems that ones against violence and want gun control. I didn'
I think dabe they are using it as a metaphor. I think they are meaning that you are trying to stay in the past eight years of left wing whacko and not willing to leave the one time hippy generation behind for a new start. i.e. not wanting to embrace new thought. But I may be wrong.
In the end, it is really an all or nothing system. All States need to change to the split the vote ticket (or at least the big ones) or none. If only NY, CA, Ill or traditionally FL changed to a split system without the rest, the Democrat party will not see a President for a long time. Doing a half and half system is a Receipt for problems. In order to change the EC, it would require a change to the Constitution, which would take the choice
With Michael Moore's character, he may just show up to Eastwood's house as part of his next movie about all the right wing nuts jobs in Hollywood. (Anybody right of him is a Right-winger , in his mind). I really do not think Clint will shoot him. (Well maybe just wing him). But I personally think Clint will come out and beat the living tar out of him. Even at the age of 90 somet
the separation of church and state does not preclude those who serve in the government from practicing their own religion. It would be pointless to have a Christian President swear on the Koran, he may as well swear on X-Men issue # 1. Much like swearing in before testifying, the putting the hand on the bible is optional. If the
Reply #23 By: jeblackstar - 1/11/2005 4:49:13 PM One thing that has repeatedly been shown is young gay men needing to take VIAGRA before they go out at night to get excited. Where the hell has this been shown? Let see. 1. HBO, Real Sex 2. TLC, "The new San Fran. Society
About the hunting issue. In my State (NV), if the person does not leave your property after one audible warning and a warning shot, you can shoot to wound (if they don't have a visable weapon). Don't you love those old wild west laws that no one wants to remove.
