Politics (Politics & Government) - 1 November 2006

most of you will get a degree and still end up working at your local Starbucks. Meanwhile, courageous men and women, most of which are highly educated and decorated, are protecting your sorry a$$. So stop looking down upon our soldiers as if serving in the military is something to be ashamed of. YOU should be ashamed of yourself for even thinkin about laughing at my joke"

Would the best apology from John kerry be an apology and resignation at the same time.?

I think if he were to resign and apologize, it would send a message to the insurgents in Iraq that the USA is united in this fight, and people like Kerry will be asked to get out of the way so that we can do our jobs. The insurgents are feeding on our divisions, and they love it.

Is a "Botched Joke" worse than a "Botched WAR"?

I see the news media making a big deal about a botched joke that Sen. Kerry made. . .at this point, how can anyone truly consider the news media left from center???? And even worse, how is it that the Republican leadership can actually make such a big deal about this vocal error when Bush is responsible for over 2800 American deaths caused by a War he instigated by misleading the public and then not having a viable plan of action to win?

Remember the "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED", where is the apology for that? People can't be that dumb, yet the news media is reporting that this may hurt the Dems at the polls. . .are you kidding me? How stupid to even say such a thing. Unless of course we have people in this country that are really that easily influenced by rhetoric. If so, God help our souls!!!

Should Kerry Apologize?

I don't think so. He was speaking his mind and we all know that he is against our troops and always has been. However he should apologize for claiming that he served his country when in fact he served the North Korean's country by betraying his own.He got a scratch, got out, and then protested against the men he served with and called them murderers, yeah what a real American Patriot.

Is anyone else sick and tried of negative campaign ads?

I think it just turns some voters off and makes them not to want to go to the polls. Im one of those people. Canidates who are running should just focus on what they want to accomplish and should also focus on the needs of the American people. Not making themselves look good by bashing someone else.

How in the world can anyone charge that I mischaraterized this from Kerry?

You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.

Sorry liberals, but even a retard can't be confused or nuanced about the despicable insult Kerry threw at our men and women in the military.

To think this jack a$$ could have been our comander in chief

Why are desperate Republicans using Kerry as distraction from their incompetence?

I guess if I was as far down in the polls as they were I'd desperate for a distraction too. I guess that's why they can't take a joke.

One wonders if they realize that Kerry is up for re-election and doesn't speak for the Democratic party.

Iraqi Insurgency Vs. French Resistance?

I have asked questions in the past related to what people think the difference is between Iraqi insurgents and French freedom-fighters from WWII. The results were, most people said that the French didn't target civilians, and any civilians they did hit were "mistakes".

Well, funny thing that, it turns out that the Iraqis aren't targeting civilians either, in fact less than five percent of attacks by insurgents (from 2003-2004) were against civillians.
http://www.zmag.org/content/showarticle.cfm?SectionID=15&ItemID=7670

And, seeing as how the majority of Iraqis favor immediate US pullout (7 out of 10). And yet a smaller majority (6 out of 10) support attacks on US forces.
http://www.arabicnews.com/ansub/Daily/Day/060927/2006092725.html

So, knowing this, how can we call the insurgents terrorists, and not freedom-fighters? Will you merely ignore the statistics which I have shown you? or will you find some way to explain this one cons?

Oh, and P.S. Give me thumbs down, they show that

How out of touch is Jonh Kerry (the genious all liberals bow to as an example of wisdom)?

He puts down all military men and women as ignorant dummies that are so lacking in intelligence the only thing they had left was to join the military.

Oh the irony that he said this at a college campus, where up to 50% of the educated morons standing with him will be working at Starbucks, CC's, Cup o' Joe, and your local Whole Foods because while they got a degree, they didn't get an education. Do you know how many of the workers at Starbuck's hold advanced degrees? Damn liberals are stupid
