Does this reveal how endless a war GWB has in mind?

In a speech in front of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Bush expressed regret the U.S. had ever pulled out of Vietnam.

How l-o-n-g must we endure this idiot,
who also said at his second coming:
now I've got a mandate I'll take my
rule of law globe-all in four years.

Isn't 7 years of tribulation enough?

Is it true Marvin Bush (George's bro) was the head of Security for the World Trade Centers leading up to 9/11

and that a couple of weeks before the attack they removed bomb sniffing dogs from the Security detail.

Did they also clear out certain floors due to Security Drills a couple of weeks before the attacks?

No bomb sniffing dogs. Clear out certain floors. Bush's younger brother in charge of the company providing security.

Wasn't there also a link with Marvin to the Boston airport where a flight was hijacked

Why aren't the names of any of the terrorists on any of the flight logs?

Is this all true?

Hmmm, looks like they did have a way to rig the building with explosives.

If welfare was administered and used the way it was intended would we still have generational welfare families

What do we need to do so that those who can't break cycle actually are helped to do so? Is creating more programs the answer or putting more money into the system?

Could we begin negotiations with the various terrorist groups and contract?

I see lots want the war over now. They seem disappointed that the war is not finished on schedule. The suggestion over and over "pull out the troops".

Well, here are my questions of curiosity:

Who would you like to represent the US in negotiations for troop withdrawal?

Who will we invite from the "terrorist side of the camp" to negotiate for them?

If the terrorist group representatives promise not to explode anyone on US soil, in return for a complete withdrawal, do you believe them?

Why can't we just socialize EVERYTHING?

I've aggravates some with suggesting that we should have universal auto care, universal auto insurance, universal lawn care, and universal downtown parking. No, they weren't aggravated because they oppose one citizen being forced to pay for another citizen...in general...they felt like these are things that individuals can do for themselves. It seems like individuals can do most things for themselves, but not healthcare.

Why not just simplify things, and have the government pay for any service that's out there? You want to go to an expensive dinner, it's covered by the state. You want to go get a massage, it's covered by the state. You need a diamond ring to propose, go to the jewler and demand your diamond ring as a civil right. No more concern about the price of gas, just pull up, pump, and drive away.

This seems the most humane and fair, don't it? Why should the rich and working only benefit from the good life?

I wonder if I can get the dems to work on a socialzed lawn care program.?

Working on a yard takes away free time I could be spending with my family...making sure they wear bike helmets before they ride a bike or skateboard...making sure there is no second hand cigarette smoke that they may inhale, making sure they aren't having fried chicken with the wrong grease....making sure that the light they use is the most energy efficient. Those things take time and really impact the health of my family. If my lawn care can be socialized, I will have time to properly focus. What do you all think?

If there is a separation of church and state why are bible thumpers always using government to force?

their beliefs on people that they don't even know?

I mean if you are against gay marraige....don't be gay and get married. If you are against abortion...don't have one. If you don't think that people should be allowed to drink on Sundays...then don't drink on Sundays.

If these "Christians" are so high and mighty, why do they need laws on the books that prevent them from doing things that are wrong. Can they not do the right thing in their own life regardless as to whether or not it is legal or illegal to do something that they are against?

I mean don't get me wrong, I don't agree with abortion....so you know what....I didn't have one. Worked for me. I don't care if two gays get married. I don't know them and their marraige doesn't affect me in any way.

Jeez....why can't people live and let live. They would be a lot better off.

If India and Pakistan were to get along again, would that be a threat?

India and Pakistan are getting more and more friendly as years go by... both countries have a growing middle class....India has a population of 350 million, highly educated middle class( and still growing) and is the second fastest growing economy and rocks when it comes to information technology and information systems..India also has a growing manufacturing industry and one of the largest armies in the world. If India and Pakistan (hypothetically speaking) were to combine strengths, wouldn't that be a threat to many other economies of the world?

When will the FBI declassify the evidence they have on the Israeli spy ring that was discovered on 9/11?

The 9/11 Israeli spy ring as reported by FOX News:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6110095161238848541&q=israeli+spy+ring&total=43&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0

http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2005/04/315624.shtml

...far more telling is the admission made by a US Official (in part one) quoted in the Fox News report that "hard evidence exists linking 9/11 not to Arab Muslims, but to some of the 200+ Israeli spies arrested both before and after 9/11, however, this Israeli=911 evidence had been CLASSIFIED."

Also, remember what Benjamin Netanyahu said after 9/11

"It's very good.Well, it's not good, but it will generate immediate sympathy (for Israel)." Benjamin Netanyahu, responding to the attacks on September 11, 2001

Do you cringe every time Bush outlines a fix for a major problem?

The cure is always 10,000x worse than the disease.

At this point we should just let the mortgage market correct itself. Will be sinking good money after bad money trying to rescue mortgages that should have never been funded in the first place.
