Politics - 10 November 2007

I'm referring to the "typical" Conservative or Liberal person. (This does not apply to someone who may lean a certain way or vote a certain way). You know what I mean - the stereotypical Conservative or Liberal.
Conservatives seem to approach things and get their point across by bullying, yelling and getting angry.
While Liberals seem to rant, complain and go to far extremities.

Don't people realize their views are more likely to be accepted if you present them to people like a normal person?

I can't Imagine a small Farm town having the runways for 747's or security for the King of Saudi Arabia.

So how does all this work. You need a runway at least 11,000 feet long and 2 feet thick with 5 mats of rebar to land Heavy Jet on. Is the Crawford Ranch that big? Or the Crawford Municipal Airport that big.

I can imagine a couple Cessnas a crop duster and 5 or 6 Jumbo Jets parked at the Down Town Crawford Air Park.

"There are some who claim that torture is a nonissue because it never works--it only produces false information. This is simply not true, as evidenced by the many decent members of the French Resistance who, under Nazi torture, disclosed the locations of their closest friends and relatives."

From Alan Dershowitz of the Wall Street Journal:
http://opinionjournal.com/editorial/feature.html?id=110010832

So, it worked so well for the Nazis, we should do it too? What kind of reasoning is that?

First, this is an explicit statement that we should have no problem using the brutal tactics of this murderous regime that so many of our soldiers (and those of many other countries) gave their lives to defeat. Isn't America supposed to be BETTER than that?

Secondly, the Nazis LOST! Should we really be copying tactics from the losers of the last world war?

Third, our interrogators were able to get vital information from the Nazis WITHOUT sinking to their level.

Veterans For Peace, Iraq Veterans Against the War, and Military Families Speak Out have been barred from marching in Saturday's Veterans Day Parade in Long Beach California. Parade coordinators said the applications were rejected because of the groups' political views.

Do Veterans lose their First Ammendment Rights If they don't agree with U.S. Foreign Policy?

To accomplish this, he stuffed them in his pants and socks, left the Library of Congress and took them to a duumpster and got rid of them.

Evidently anyone could do that and it makes one wonder how many other documents have been removed by others.

Security of the records, camera observations, for those who enter and leave was evidently "out to lunch" when he visited.

This man was willing to lose his job, Security Clearance, and his status in political society.

Since he is a close ally of Hillary Clinton who wants to become President of the United States of America and Bill Clinton who is the Past President of the United States of America,also destroyed many records, both public and private
as well as well as peoples lives, in the past.

It becomes quite obvious the past is very important to our future.

It is time for us to research their past before we can trust them with our future.

The very definition of socialism is simplified to "public ownership of the means of production." When a person thinks of that, and I mean socialism in its true form, rather than its namesake Soviet form, doesn't it just sound like a superior system destined for the future? Looking at history, one can see that feudalism developed out of previous/more primitive social-political systems. After feudalism came capitalism, which emphasizes individual rights. Today crude individualism seems to be the one flaw in our society, and this capitalism owes its part in creating the underground market, as an alternate source of revenue for people left out of the mainstream market. Socialism on the other hand emphasizes both poltical and social rights, to a much greater extent than capitalism ever has. So does anyone believe that capitalism will evolve just as feudalism did? I do, even if it takes years

Here in America, it is Veterans' Day.

Today we honor those of our forefathers, and their neighbors, brothers, and kin who died as soldiers that we might live in freedom.

What would you die for?

***
Those who follow the "jihad as war on others" belief have already answered this question. They're willing to die to force you to join their religion and follow their laws and their leaders. They're willing to die so that females in your society must be less than men. They're willing to die so that the freely chosen government of Israel will be abolished and all its Jewish citizens slaughtered because they are Jews. They are willing to die so that anyone who renounces their religion shall be murdered.


All that is required for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.


What are you willing to do?
