Politics - 9 September 2006

Osama bin Laden's still free, global anti-U.S. feelings are rampant, our military is stretched thin. The administration's war planners are yesterday's men: They talk tough, but they never learned the lessons of Vietnam, much less the lessons of 9/11.

ABC is planning to run this 9/11 “Docu-Drama” without commercial interruption which means it will be basically a free Republican infomercial. If there is a Liberal bias, why would ABC do this?

Surely that is terrorism? Is the fact that they are power hungry, oil hungry, fat greedy lieing idiots? Or is it that they're just pure dim and don't realise that they are not the best people in the world and don't have the right or intelligence to decide other peoples fate.

that both the United States and Israel are virtual theocratic states, profoundly influenced by religious parties whose leaders are arrogant, racist, and militaristic, and who have posed persistent threats to international peace and security.

See story: http://electioncentral.tpmcafe.com/blog/electioncentral/2006/sep/09/in_new_letter_clintons_lawyer_demands_abc_yank_film

It is clear that Bill Clinton, nor his lawyers have even seen the ABC 9/11 movie. How can they be so adamant about the accuracy of the movie? Let's face it, when was ABC ever antagonistic toward Bill Clinton, so it's not likely they are out to get him either. We know that there were things about Bill Clinton that didn't even get touched on by the Commission, that doesn't mean they didn't happen. So, why doesn't the public deserve to hear the full story?

Al Qaeda’s leaders threatened in 2003 to attack America.
Experts warn that terrorists could destroy a city with WMDs.
Maybe there are just a few terrorists with the zeal and the competence to attack the US.
The total number of Americans who have died as a result of terrorist acts is fewer than the number who drowned in bathtubs during this period.
Has the terror industry become the newest hot investment sector?

Many individuals on the far left firmly believe the US has entered Iraq for its oil. There is absolutely no evidence to support the fact that we have "stolen" any oil from the soverign and democratically elected government of Iraq. Please consider that Iraqi oil flowed on the world markets before Operation Iraqi Freedom and therefore, the net oil production would not have been effected by a regime change. I CHALLENGE ALL OF YOU TO PROVIDE EVIDENCE FOR YOUR CONSPIRACY THEORY!

Sadly, I think no.


Halliburton Co. executives ordered a big-screen television and 10 large tubs of tacos, chicken wings and cheese sticks delivered to Iraq for last year's Super Bowl, then billed U.S. taxpayers for their party, according to a lawsuit unsealed Friday.

The Houston-based company also defrauded the government by double- and triple-billing for Internet, food and gym services for soldiers, according to the lawsuit by a former employee for KBR, the Halliburton subsidiary that runs dining halls for troops in Iraq.

that Liberalism should be abolished and only conservatism be allowed or that Liberalism will fade away? Why do they think it would be better with one party and outlaw the others...isn't that fascist or Stalinistic...or at least unAmerican to support restriction to at least one of the articles of the Bill of Rights?

I read an article by Leonard PItts Jr. today, claiming 500 Muslims died in 9/11? How can that be? There were only 3,000 total 9/11 casualties? And there's no way Muslims make up one in six New Yorkers. Does anyone have an explanation?

Bush bribes old,stupid,criminal recurits

"The Army also has put about one-third more recruiters on the street, and Congress approved new financial incentives for enlistees, including signing bonuses for some slots of as much as $40,000. The Army also began allowing people as old as 42 to enter the service; the maximum age previously was 35.
The Army also has accepted a larger number of recruits whose score on a standardized aptitude test is at the lower end of the acceptable range, and it has granted waivers to permit the enlistment of people with criminal records that otherwise would disqualify them. The Army says it does not grant waivers if there is a pattern of criminal misconduct or for convictions of drug trafficking or any sexually violent crimes."

Doesn't this sound just like the organization that YOU would want to represent your country, or have your kids involved with?
