Reply to US Should Work With Others, Except in North Korea? in Democrat PolMach Forums

OK, lets give then food so they can give it to their military and let their poeple starve, like they did with Clinton. Fool us once, shame on you. Fool us twice, Kerry is an idiot that don't know anything about international politics. Also we know China is a communist country, but that didn't stop Clinton from wanting to make it a Strategic Allie and forking over ICBM/Nuke Tech to them (links on request). He is the one who m

Reply to Did the United States unilaterally win World War II? in Politics PolMach Forums

I'm with J.E. here. Russia did most of the fighting in the West. Us Americans play their roll in the war down. But could the Russians have beaten the Germans themselves? In my opinion NO. The Western Allies tied up a large number of division, not only German division in the west but Japanese division in the East. This freed the Russian Divisions facing Japan to be moved to defend Moscow. Without those veteran forces Moscow would surely h

With regards to the U.N securtiy council seat, i believe the fact that the seat is given to Beijing is simply one of practicality, mainland china is much more powerful militaristically and economically.

And anyone in the service should know that it is undignified to favor a commander in chief--you follow orders regardless of its source. Ohh, that's right I need to just be quit. Just like us being ordered for eight years not to tell Clinton jokes. Actually if you check my posts out you will notice I'm

Reply to One China, One Myth in International PolMach Forums

I personally don't think Communist China should have the permanent seat on the UN Security Council. If Communist China says that Taiwan is China, then the rightful Government to the China that was originally given the seat is in Taiwan, not Beijing. If you want to use that logic to say Taiwan is China then give up the seat buddy. That's My Two Cents

Reply to Reason for The Draft in Politics PolMach Forums

Anybody notice it is only Democrats requesting a draft? But Republicans are being blamed. As a military member myself, I don't want a draft. It's a bad idea and only being brought up so some politicians they get their fingers into the military. Enlistment into the Active Army has improved in the last year. While all reports of the National Guard will be short by 500

Reply to One China, One Myth in International PolMach Forums

I don't think you will get your next Visa proved after these statements. But very good Article. The China is a Communist Country and that Communism is built on an idea of constant revolution. Taiwan is the symbol of that revolution. That threat that binds the people to the ideology and to scares little children at night with. But as you said, that threat is wearing thin after awhile. The Politburo will need to find a new threat so

Thanks for the post, not all the soldiers see it that way, if they are voting at all. No problem. I don't think all soldiers will vote this way. Because I know some do not think like the majority. But I will have to say one of the highest turnout rates of any group will be military personne

I'd like to hear why some of these servicemen would want to vote Bush. 1. Kerry's testimony in front of Congress in the 1972 (enough said). 2. Kerry's not funding body armor and armored Hummers. (Please don't through that old saying that Bush should have done something about it before the w

Reply to Kerry 1, Bush 0 in Politics PolMach Forums

Despite your very accurate observations, what I think is key to remember about the debates is that they, like so much else in politics, are very much based on appearance. In this most important aspect, Kerry performed remarkably and Bush seemed more like "candidate Bush" of old. In regards to Bush having the "substance", I think

Sandy2 If you think we can or could have done anything militarily about N. Korea you are dreaming. China would enact their defense treaty with N. Korea. I think China is really just waiting for us to do this. Now Kim Ill on the diplomatic side basically wants to extort food, money and nuclear material out of the US in direct talks. Even after Clinton walked into that treaty, Kim Ill continued to research their nuke program (The UN

This is in addition to my list above. 8. Kerry criticizes Bush for not equipping and training Iraq's security forces, but then criticizes Bush for shifting 16 Billion to equip and train them. 9. Kerry criticizes Bush for not being flexible, and then criticizes Brush for being flexible by shifting money. More to come.

Deference I think you’re in for a big let down. Yes, I think Kerry did a good job at being force full and confident, what would you expect from the Yale debate team President. But as I gave an example (that GX thankfully transferred to this post), Kerry is going to be torn apart for the wor

When you make the point that atheist children don't have to say "under god".....you are essentially telling them to sit down and shut up. How? I don't see it that way.....anybody else? I do, but you know my feeling on the subject already. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=cente

I think if Kerry really looked into the camera, people would be seen his shallow heartless soul. You have to admit; sometimes Kerry can really creep a person out if you you looked at him right. I think his staff told him not to in order to prevent the few children watching (of the political crack heads that would keep them up this late) from screaming out of the room in terror. But Bush with his narrow beady little eyes made people wonder if

Now the Indians want to branch out and put casino's on land that "isn't reservation land". The land would be purchased by private funds, and taxed.

Sorry about the misspelling guys. It was not ment to be offensive. I will admit to miss spelling things from time to time (blasted spell check can't catch everything). I enjoy debating with all of you guys. Texas Wahine and Rightwing you both are good poeple. Have a good day guys.

I am leaning toward Kerry, however, just because I despise being lied to. Not that Kerry won't lie to me too, but he hasn't yet. If Bush would come out and tell the world that the reason that he took Saddam out was because Saddam put a price on George Sr's head, and in Texas, them's fightin' words, I might give him my vote, but i

The thing is "God" is not saying "Christian God". It's a generic term. "Allah" is a "God", just not the Christian God. If people would just get over it and realize that everyone that believes in a divine spirit is basically praying to the same "God" then these debates would never have to exist. Karma
