don't you think it's a little hypocritical?

Question

for you people who suport abortion, and accuse Bush of being a baby killer. I don't remember any news story of Bush personaly taking a life let alone the life of a baby. What part of war do you not understand? I can only say... was going into Iraq a mistake? No the vision was noble. were mistakes made? yes. Is the loss of innocent life a tragedy? no question. I don't think any American president who has sent troops into battle takes any loss of life lightly in any reguard. I can only ask of all of you... we all beleive our view is right, well let me break it to you... no view is 100 percent correct. until we stop the blame game and work together the world will continue to see us as the Divided States of America. I am going to personal start. Dems, Libs, Progressives, Repubs, and all other political labels you all have valid points. As much as I couldn't disagree with some of your views more, You all are all right with me. Isn't that what make our country great.

C J guns don't kill people, people kill people. should we also ban cars, how about screw drivers, what about candle stick holders. get my point.

Answer 1

You are 100% correct.

We cannot change the past but we can learn from it and strive for a better future.

Answer 2

The vision was noble? Excuse me?
OK, terrorists attacked the US, and I understand there needs to be a reckoning, so I understand the attack of Afghanistan, because they were hiding Osama Bin Laden. Point taken.

After that, what was going on? The reasoning was this: I don't like Sadam. The neighbouring country was the country most of the attackers on 911 came from, and also the country where Osama came from, but I don't like Sadam. My father tried to attack Sadam, but stopped a few miles from Bagdad and retreated. We have good relations with Saudi Arabia and I don't like Sadam. Hey, let's find a reason to attack Iraq. OK, there's no good reason, but we'll try to convince other people there are good reasons, let me think... ah weapons of mass destruction. They haven't got any, but hey, that's not our problem. We'll whip up a story and that way we'll find support. Once we have support we'll have justification. And once we'll have justification we can do whatever the hell we want.
And now the US is up to the neck in this. They can't get out, because that would be inhumane, leaving a country wrecked like that. Daily hundreds of people still die, soldiers and civilians. These are all people with families, children, wives, husbands. All because of a 'noble vision'? Where is the nobility? There was no sense, no proof, no logic behind these attacks. I absolutely don't blame the soldiers. It's their job, and they do as they are told, that's what soldiers do. But they are having a hard time. They are in a country that doesn't want them there, and they don't want to be there either, but their president got them into that mess. Noone else. OK, Bush isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, so maybe his advisors are to blame. But he *is* the boss, he *is* elected to lead the USA, he did made the promise to do that as good as he can, and he basically f****ed up and now slowly starts to admit little bits of that. But a noble vision? Never. Shortsightedness, maybe greed, maybe stupidity, but not, I repeat not nobility.

Answer 3

You're nice. :)

But one could argue that Saddam didn't personaly take all of those lives with his bare hands either, yet he is still held accountable because he was the boss. No one will argue with holding Saddam accountable.

As for "Chainsaw" who says "Also, all soliders are volunteers. It is disrespectful to them to act the way liberals do."

My husband is in the military he said that he feels as a member of the Armed Forces that it would be more direspectful for people NOT to voice thier opinion because he is here to provide them with Freedom... he also says that any one urging others not to voice these opinions can shove thier support up thier a** because they support the absence of Freedom and by doing so they are an enemy of the Constitution wich he has sworn to uphold. The military is here to protect the Constitution and the president of the United States, not the government.

Answer 4

>don't you think it's a little hypocritical for you people who suport abortion, and accuse Bush of being a baby killer.

No, abortion kills fetuses, not babies. You are confused.

>I don't remember any news story of Bush personaly taking a life

Same with Saddam and Hitler.

>What part of war do you not understand?

I dont understand how people can support a war that was started for the sake of corporate profits and sold to the american people with lies about nuclear weapons.

Answer 5

Some crackpots or trolls here may say Bush is heartless, but they don't represent all or most liberals, conservatives, or people in between. Therefore, what they say means nothing.

At the new session of Congress, Democrats will have to be firm at first, so they don't look like pushovers. Once they establish their position, you will see their hands extended across the aisle.

Hopefully this goodwill will trickle down to the masses and honest debates can be had, and real problems solved.

Good post, BTW.

Answer 6

I like your 'notion'.

But there is also something called REALITY.

I don't think FENCE SITTING is the right place to be right now.

Choose or Lose is a more accurate analysis.

Fence Sitters can simply do that. Sit on the Fence while the big kids make DECISIONS.

Answer 7

I think Patrick Henry answered the question rather handily:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Quote: Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God!
Author: Patrick Henry 1736-1799, American Orator, Patriot

Answer 8

Yes, but I think it is hypocritical to be pro-life and anti-gun control at the same time.

Added: I agree, and guns make that very easy. Their whole purpose is to shoot a projectile and kill. With your argument you can say the same thing about your bare hands, so your attempt to ridicule the notion of the contradictory support of one form of death over another makes little sense. (All the other objects have alternative purposes than just to kill except for abortion and guns)

Your take on it still doesn't explain or justify the hypocrisy allowing one form of murder while emphatically denying the other.

Answer 9

I support a woman's right to exercize domain over her body and to decide whether or not she will submit her body and her life to the advent of childbirth.

Bush is a killer of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, men, women and babies. That is not in dispute.

Point out the hypocrisy in that.

Answer 10

Stupid is as stupid does Lt. Dan

The problem is liberals are overly emotional. Their behavior stems from this. Also, all soliders are volunteers. It is disrespectful to them to act the way liberals do.
