Ya had one whole day to think of something

Now I'm beginning to understand why GW wanted out of Texas .... 'cause, if you won 'Best In Show' the species is in dire straits....
To: Jefferson Adams
Coming from you, Sir, I'll take that as a compliment !!
Thanks !! !!

If you think that he caused this nation any grief - you're more ignorant about all things UN than I thought humanly possible.
The Untied Nations' main point-of-attack has been US since it's conception. Kofi wants to derail anything and every thing that gives US any credit for anything happening around God's little half acre - but then bills US for every thing that he can imagine, and expects US to pay for all of his Terrorist Activities.....

Hi VaBthang4,
That guy is ignorant, an obvious baiter, bravely thumping away on a keyboard.
Anyone who alleges the Gulf War was no war has no clue and clearly takes his (her?) lead from CNN.
I suggest you give him (her?) no more thought. Engage "ignore."
To: DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet
oh here is where that thread went to? LOL
To: VaBthang4
Thank you for saying it so well in post 1062!!!!
We agree with you 100 percent. In fact, my fingers are bloody from screaming it across the keyboards of late. :o)
To: Jefferson Adams; OWK; tpaine
Nice freudian slip, Bub. That's PRECISELY what we've lost - rights that we already had before this administration took office. You obviously don't know much about the so-called "Patriot Act," which was passed without even being read by the congressslime in DC and signed by Junior.Whine, whine, whine. Why don't you put your money where your fecklessly flapping jaws are and run for Congress? You know, try to make a difference instead of sucking your thumb and engaging in the typical libertarian b*tch session?
You insufferable Harry Browne cassandras are all alike. You throw your tantrums and hold your breath until your faces turn purple, call everyone who disagrees with you a "statist", but you never do anything meaningful.
Is it because you realize you could never actually get elected?
To: Alabama_Wild_Man
WHOA NELLIE!!!!!! I just saved your UN Helmet phot - VERY well done, AWM :)
Here's how things like that happen -

To: Kevin Curry
Oh Kevin, I feel so - so - put in my place. *Snicker*.
Most people that are still on FR have essentially the same mindset that the Germans did right before WWII. Go Fatherland! USA uber alles!
Unfortunately, it's even infected our military, as evidenced by several gung-ho mindless frothings on this thread by what passes for soldiers these days.
I imagine those Wehrmacht youngsters had the same emotional responses as they fought for the Fatherland. Sad.

You insufferable Harry Browne cassandras are all alike. Cassandra was always right but she was cursed so that no one would believe her.

"The President is merely the most important in a large number of public servants. He should be supported to the degree which is warranted by good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or his inefficiency in rendering, loyal, able and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but it is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him, or anyone else. But it is more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant about him than about anyone else."
Theodore Roosevelt May 7, 1918.
I believed it when Clinton was in office and I belive it to this day.
To: VaBthang4; Kevin Curry
You hype an "ultimate threat" to this country as a reason to "evaluate priorities", which, in your opinion means:
"all else is subordinate to that defense, including your opinions, feelings and if needs be your unhindered rights.
You then rub salt in the constitutions wounds by claiming:
"If you do not agree then I find difficulty in you identifying yourself as either Conservative or American."
You are advocating 'subordinating' rights in order to save them.
- This is not rational american conservatism on your part. - Be ashamed of your own "adolescent, knee-jerk outburst". ________________________________
Curry, your own jingoistic type bull gets the same evaluation. Stuff it.

Cassandra was always right but she was cursed so that no one would believe her. That's what's the most amusing, paerhaps, about these types - they like to try to use big words and references, but not only do they screw them up, they frequently accomplish the opposite of what they're intending.
The government schools have done their job well.

Excellent post, Commander. It's a pity that it goes right over the heads of the uneducated masses in What's Left of America.
To: tpaine
You are advocating 'subordinating' rights in order to save them. And they don't even see it. They're so puffed up in mindless "patriotism" and Republican flag waving they've forgotten what freedom and rights really are.
Hence my references to '30s Germany - the same thing happened there, except that the Germans of that time were much better schooled and cultured than Americans are now.
To: VaBthang4
Wow, Va. Impressive credentials. Thank you once again for your service to our country.
To: Jefferson Adams
Quick. Hide under the bed. The statists are coming.
*Yawn*
To: Jefferson Adams
they've forgotten what freedom and rights really are.Nonsense. I exult in my freedom everyday. I am exulting in it now. Festooned with liberals and feckless scared-of-their-own-shadow wussie libertarians this nation may be, but it is still the grandest, most glorious, most free nation on earth!
Watching you and tpaine as you roll on the floor in wretched agony and claw at your illusory chains is like watching a particularly campy Star Trek episode. The overacting makes comedy of the most dour drama.
To: Jefferson Adams
Yeah, FIJC, you'd better do that. I think North Buttocks is still availableI saw a post by the redoubtable priss-ant OWK somewhere--maybe it was while lurking at an anti-FReeper site--where he harrumphed about having to "rebutt" his critics. I didn't even know anyone's butt was missing.
