"If they're sober when you ask them ..."

What would you know about sobriety?

"If they were [traitors], where was the trial?

They were given pardons and amnesty. For the most part, they accepted such. For those who did not, there were the disabilities of the 14th Amendment. A number of former confederates repented for their crimes and became again worthy American citizens, in the fullest sense.

"These people were citizens of another country, and not citizens of the United States."

You can certainly renounce your citizenship, if you wish. You just can't steal the the loyal citizens' country away from them.

That's been quoted, and it is not an "order." It appears to be Dahlgren's personal plan.

You guys are the authors of your own misfortune. Your compatriot is as responsible as any for the demise of some of your fellow travelers.

When you post obnoxious, racist, violent content, you're going to get the thread pulled or your a$$ bounced.

In terms of Iraq our men deal with the daily threats of jihadic metal cases, sold out to to a death culture, yet the safety of our men is even questioned

Amen.

Thus, the actions to defend themselves is legimate due to the type of enemy they are fighting.

They´re coming to take YOU away,
Ho ho, hee hee, ha ha,
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And YOU´LL be happy to see
Those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they´re coming to take YOU away!

(apologies to Napolean XIV)

'They´re coming to take YOU away,'

I think they already did. :) The two vultures, crap & crud have all of a sudden disappeared.

Another hit and run, then a crawl back into the swamp.

"Who wants conservatives to stay locked in the attic until election day?"

Conservatives? Since when are libertarian economic cultists and southern separatists "conservative"?

"What makes you think I'm drunk?"

Lol, oh brother, there is no way anyone completely sober could even dream up the stuff you type.

Would anyone else wish to issue a comment regarding the question from 'you-know-who'.

Recent reports indicated they departed from their garbage can, returned to the swamp, but as of this posting were seen slithering back in the general direction of the garbage can, although in their present condition, (everyone is now clear on which condition) it may take them awhile, prior to reaching home.

Islam believes it is God's will that it conquer the world.

They are going to get the shock of their lives when Christ comes back and sets up a Jewish Kingdom.

You guys are the authors of your own misfortune. Your compatriot is as responsible as any for the demise of some of your fellow travelers.

You're lying in your teeth, and everyone on this board knows it. Your discourse is so poisonous, rattlesnakes wouldn't touch it.

When you post obnoxious, racist, violent content, you're going to get the thread pulled or your a$$ bounced.

Cite and quote examples of each, troll. Prove I'm a "racist", with "violence" in my black little heart. Post an example of "racist" discourse by our side, Slimer.

You're just smearing people because you have a hall pass from your sponsors. You get threads pulled when people post proof you're a knowing liar who puts up phonied-up "quotations" from authority, passing off one text as another. You pretend it didn't happen, and then when things get a little tight around the collar, you cry to your big brother and get the thread nuked. You've rung up at least 6,000 posts' worth of threads just to CYA. You're such a piece of work ...... and yet you've proven repeatedly, you don't have enough character to justify even holding a conversation with. You're personally dishonest, you've a bloodthirstiness about you that would gag a leech, and you have a taste for calumny, brutality, and wantonness in your posts -- and yet you manage to make it all seem so boring somehow.

You guys have lost this argument on substance. Repeatedly. There's nothing really left to talk about, except your buddy's flair for hijacking bandwidth from IB's. And when GOP or someone goes to bed at 3 a.m., you try to imagine to yourselves somehow that you have "run him off", you have "silenced" him with the scintillating epee work of your witty posting......when in all likelihood, he has passed out from sheer boredom.

Later, trolls. And I mean that in the Norse sense of the word.

I'm somewhat busy right now, but I wanted to address this:

Furthermore, the whole of Article 148 is intended to reinforce the idea that even an enemy should be accorded the opportunity for a hearing ... before he is executed for his treasonable conduct.

Oh, so we are to capture Osama bin Laden, then give him a hearing, a trial, 3 squares and 72 virgins, and then execute him? That's your definition of 'retaliatory' measures?

You continue to err by mischaracterizing Dahlgren's personal notes as "orders."

Do you think Lincoln to be an idiot, that would issue this: "Assassinate Jeff Davis and Cabinet"? The only do that on TV so idiots can understand, in the real world no one is going to leave an explicit paper trail. Butler had already failed, Kilpatrick then met with Lincoln, Dahlgren met with Lincoln, Dalgren wrote his father about his glorious mission and the fame it would bring him, and Dahlgren had orders and personal papers on his person indicating that Richmond was to be destroyed, Jeff Davis and cabinet killed. A moron can understand what that means.

Even if you believe that the Dahlgren Raid was a planned assassination attempt, it was a failure. There was no assassination. There was nothing to retaliate against.

So if some terrorist attempts to assassinate our President, we have to wait before they are successful BEFORE before executing retaliatory measures?

You're insane.
