We've created a culture that's obsessed with the use of military force first and foremost. ---Adnauseum I hate this argument; how come you lefties never said this shit about the Soviet Union, with their endless parades of missiles, tanks and soldiers, filing past the Politburo members and Sec. General? How come you never call the Chinese warmongers? They do it, too. Why don't you? Because Communists are lefties, too. The lefties shoot down American milita

jericho was cancelled yesterday. ---Sean C. That's okay....it sucked; I was just using the visual as a referent. It was one of those shows they have now where a lot of coolness gets promised, but little really happens. "Heroes" is like that. My wife and I love it, but are getting tired of all the hype with no payoff. It's like a nudie bar---you get all excited, but nothing great comes of it...so to speak.

So, what would you guys have us do? Personally, I want to win this this and bring everyone home. That's not going to happen, though, unless we commit whole-heartedly, which aren't doing, and haven't done, since 1945. And sorry Drag, but I think the "nation-building" has to happen, or else there'll be another bloodbath, like post-pullout Vietnam, but with consequences directly affecting us. If we pull out without successfully installing some form of stable government, Iran would simply

Actually he wasn't - he was appointed Chancellor after he lost the elections and after that there weren't any. ---Cacto Wrongo---the election of 1934, which is the one to which I refer. His ascension to power had to be finalized after Hindenberg's death. It was a landslide victory for him....his was the only name on the ballot.

Reply to Democrat sleaze at despicable new low in US Domestic JoeUser Forums

On the show this morning, Quinn said that the cease and desist threats had stopped, so he's taking that as proof that the story is true. Maybe they're pulling back and trying to minimize the possible damage, I don't know. Keeping it under the radar as much as possible? Not making a big fuss so it'll go quietly away? As to why Brownback hasn't come forward---I dunno; maybe he's got skeletons of his own he's hiding? Or, maybe he's just trying to avoid a big scuffle in

Democrat sleaze at despicable new low in US Domestic JoeUser Forums

The text below is taken from www.warroom.com, the website of the "Quinn and Rose Show", a Pittsburgh-based morning talk show. I was listening the morning Quinn broke the story. He reiterated today that they stand by their source, and are receiving "Cease and Desist" threats from DNC lawyers. I bet; hand in the cookie jar time. They were on Hannity with it, too, as she relates in the article. I'm glad they took it on the road; word of this needs to get out. This is just too

Well, Hitler WAS elected, even though by the time of the election, he'd either killed, scared off or managed to have banned any opposition. I see pictures and newsreels of massed crowds cheering, right arms thrust forward as he walked to the stage or podium. That's leadership, in my book, no matter how you slice it. The German people elected a dictator and got what they wanted, come what may. And it came. Stalin was appointed only after winning the power struggle in

Tim Johnson, where are you? in Politics JoeUser Forums

Tim Johnson, Democrat Senator from South Dakota, has been out of action for what, nigh on to 6 months, now? He had his bad stroke shortly after the Democrat victory in November and, despite continuing party assurances that he's fine and dandy and reviewing legislation, no one has seen him since. Whispers have recently surfaced, from the people caring for him, that he's in an unresponsive state. SD has a Republican governor, whose job it is to replace Johnson if he can't fulfill his obligati

I might had missed it in your article, Drag, but back in the 30s, when Social Sec. was introduced, it was called "Social Security Insurance", and was not supposed to extend much past the Depression Era. On average, people only lived to 62 or 63 then, and SS was supposed to kick at age 64, I believe---after you were supposed to have died. It was originally conceived to help them out if they lived to 65 or higher. As the life expectancy rose, noone ever

Global Warming---a new dodge? in The Environment JoeUser Forums

I was listening to a talk radio show last week, and the host was addressing the problems Global Warming whackos are presently having. What with dozens dead across the country from the lengthy blast of frigid, wintry weather, cities buried under snow banks, billions lost in crop revenues ---in California, no less---from a severe cold snap, freezing cold in Florida, etc., it would seem difficult to continue to convince the sheeple of their claims of imminent, superheated climat

I recently got a phone call from a good friend, Jessie Hawken. Her husband, Brent, is in the Army. Brent and Jessie both are from Follansbee, WV, just south of Weirton, but now live in Washington State, where Brent is stationed at Fort Lewis. Brent is soon to be shipped out to Afghanistan, where his unit will be deployed for a year. Goody bags and care packages, assembled by the wives and families of his unit’s Family Readiness Group, will be sent out to the members of the uni

Good day, MM, Colleen. Hope all is well on the homefront. I recently receieved my first full paycheck in years. My son is 19, and the Child Support finally came off. That's a $400/month raise. That's almost the rent. We're hoping it's permanent, but since we're dealing with the State, we're not all that confident. Always seems to be a catch somewhere. Anyway.....took the wife out for dinner at Applebees to celebrate. I had the steak and Parmesean shrimp combo.

Tried going up into PA to visit some family on Saturday; had to turn around 'cause the snow was so bad. Tried to go to the mall yesterday, got caught up in a whiteout, and had to go home. Got stuck in our driveway because under the several inches of snow are several inches of ice. Careful, Old man---Global Warming's gonna getcha! Glad to hear he's doing so much better. He'll be up and griping in no time. Liberals (tsk); who needs'em!? Take it easy, Master Jedi Right.

My son will be 20 this year. That’s hard to believe, you know? I recently found a bunch of baby pictures and such that I hadn’t looked at in years, and I’ve been reminiscing a little about the past. I wanted to write down this particular item for your review and enjoyment, since I find it moderately amusing now.

Well said...very, very well said. Another of our problems is that there are far too many people in this country who subscribe to the whole Diversity, multiculturalist tripe. They just want us all to understand each other and get along. They undermine our ability to feel outrage and righteousness, and our ability to take decisive action, because it's their belief that all arguments are valid...except those made by the powerful.

I don't want you to concede that match to me. If that's what you believe, that's what you believe. End it without conceding anything, whatever. If it wasn't for absolutes I wouldn't have taken issue with your points. If you think I take it too seriously, ponder the response people here give to folks who come in and say Christianity is a cancer, or Judaism.
