Politics - 14 October 2007

As an Englishman who owns many major US based companies I feel I am in a position to ask this
Recently I have noticed that the Americans who frequent this site have become very nasty and bitter, often resorting to the use of uncouth language to get their point across.
The Americans that i own are the complete opposite to this, they are lovely, hard working(when pushed) and they never use bad language.I make it a policy to reward the Americans that i own for good behaviour(use of hot water,extra bedding etc) and therefore have very few problems.
Would this work with Americans on this site?

The US and Turkey has been long time allys and Nancy Pelosi and democrats are trying to pass a bill on the Armenian so-called genocides at a bad time, while at the same time we are allys with Germany whom also commited the same. What they are trying to do kill our troops because of politics. Turkey is a key logistics area for the US-Iraq war efforts where most needs of our military has safe passage and Turkey is the only muslim state that is also an ally in the Iraq war. What the hell is this democratic leadership trying to do, I can see that they will lose the presidency with all that they have been and is doing. I hope she knows better along with her collegues then to risk undue tension with Turkey and moreso our troops. She will be the demise of our troops because of her PERSONAL dislike for Bush. Even a middle school grade kid knows not to drop the tray of eggs or shot yourself in the foot when our Troops (our children) are in harms way already. What a sh--ithead!

Rush Limbaugh is auctioning off the hilarious letter from Harry Reid, which was signed by 41 democrats, seeking to have Rush's syndication partner condemn him for his "Unpatriotic" views on the US Military. It was given to Rush by the recipient. The letter is enclosed in a Haliburton attache case. The bidding is up to $45,000 currently. No bids will be accepted from the DNC or other anti-american senators who want to get the letter back before it embarasses them even further. The proceeds will be donated to the Marine Corps Law Enforcement Foundation, which goes to help support widows and family of Marines and federal law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty. Once again, the democrats step in it and have to scrape it off their shoes.

I don't see what possible benefit there is to applying the label of genocide to something that happened nearly 100 years ago. Our leaders be spending time on issues that really matter like health care, education, the Iraq war, and others. This seems like an even worse idea when you consider that it could seriously harm ties with one of our key allies in the gulf region.

The UK has done this and take it quite seriously.

I would like to save others from the same sick stomachs I got whenever my lib profs started off on their leftist rants.

They think, talk and rant about nothing else but Liberals this, Liberals that. Look at all these posts if you don't believe it. Is there any medication that can help cure this? Hopefully electroshock treatment would not be necessary.

http://www.smh.com.au/news/environment/gore-gets-a-cold-shoulder/2007/10/13/1191696238792.html

ONE of the world's foremost meteorologists has called the theory that helped Al Gore share the Nobel Peace Prize "ridiculous" and the product of "people who don't understand how the atmosphere works".

Dr William Gray, a pioneer in the science of seasonal hurricane forecasts, told a packed lecture hall at the University of North Carolina that humans were not responsible for the warming of the earth.

"We're brainwashing our children," said Dr Gray

"It bothers me that my fellow scientists are not speaking out against something they know is wrong," he said. "But they also know that they'd never get any grants if they spoke out. I don't care about grants."

It is sad that so many scientists are afraid to break ranks and tell the truth!

Who really believes this nonsense?

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21295390/

Quoted in part from article.

*Gasoline prices have been moving lower in recent months as supplies have grown and demand has ebbed with the end of peak summer driving season. Crude oil, meanwhile, has surged on a mix of concerns about growing global demand, falling inventories and an influx of speculative investment money.*

In truth - The nation’s three largest oil companies — Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp. and ConocoPhillips are crooks.

Want to know the truth about these three big oil companies? Check out how many refineries they had opened for years doing the work they are crying about now. Our gas prices were much lower when most, if not all of the refineries were opened.

These three big oil companies joined together in collusion to fix gasoline prices for the sole purpose to rip off the American, and global people for their own self interests and profit gains.

How did they do this?

"Bush sent our boys into the rats nests of fallujah on a door -to-door basis as if they're selling Avon. You cannot fight a politically correct war and expect to win it. Nor can you fight a politically correct occupation and win it."
"There is only one tactical principal which is not subject to change. It is to use the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wound, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time."
