Were Not in Lake Wobegon Anymore How did the Party of Lincoln and Liberty transmogrify into the party of Newt Gingrichs evil spawn and their Etch-A-Sketch president, a dull and rigid man, whose philosophy is a jumble of badly sutured body parts trying to walk?

"Where the women are strong, the men are good looking, and the children are above average."
Failing the last two bits of the motto, presumably Garrison's an import. ;)

What president is advertising? Who said anything about ridding Terrorism, Fight it, but not rid of it...
For this I must laugh!
Now go play on the freeway....
Pat Buchanan and Garrison Keillor must be considered great minds there in la la land. Go drink some more kool aid.
Welcome to FR.
Have some more koolaid. You seem to come from a long line of coke to me.
Could you post a photo. Perhaps there's something about you we can appreciate.
Uh, did you FORGET about the fact that it was Osama bin Laden that DECLARED WAR on US??Your buddy Bill Clintoon - 'the Centrist' - ignored his attacks for the most part.
- 1993 the first WTC attack - a bombing
- 1998 the attack on the embassy in South Africa
- 2000 the USS bombed, killing 17 military personnel
Bush is fighting the terrorists and they are being KILLED in Iraq and Afghanistan.HOPEFULLY, we won't have to fight them HERE like Israel does on a daily basis .....
But can't we all just get along? If I ignore the wolf won't he stop eating my sheep?
Give me proof that if we stop fighting or cave to the demands of the terrorist how this will stop terrorist attacks around there world or prevent them here on our own soil?
Arab countries for years when attacked by the fanatics of Islam have caved given into demands for ransom or made changes to their societies to "keep the peace". They still get attacked their people still get kidnapped. Appeasement does not work.
What people are still failing to understand, is that this is a battle of Idealogy. It is the supportors of fanatical islam vs the western world. They will not rest until they are either eliminated from this planet or they have achieved their goal of converting the world to Islam and eliminating the infidel. This has been their goal for hmm lets see over 1000 years. This is the battle in our time. So you can see where I am not ready to dismiss 1000 years of history in belief that appeasement will bring us peace. If you can prove me otherwis, I would be intrested to see it.
If I ignore the wolf maybe he'll eat me last.
bump
Many many of these "poorest" countries have serious problems that need to be fixed before throwing money at them will do any good.
Anyone that sticks their head in the sand refusing to acknowledge that the worlg has grown smaller in the last fifty years (Pat Buchannon) is the lunatic fringe.
Yeah, right. It's the rest of the world, and half the U.S., that is being led by the "lunatic fringe" on the left. You think it's "prudent" for us not to piss off that element, even though they will only be mollified by capitulation. Please go away.
Oh, and I am soooooooooooooooooooo damned impressed by your support of Nixon when you were a minor and unable to vote. Way to work in your conservative bona fides there! You are now beyond reproach. No one's even going to THINK of asking you "Who did you vote for in 1976?"
Certainly not me. :-P
Yeah. Maybe!!
UH-huh.
And I suppose you're going to vote for John Kerry as well, right?
Who, in your opinion, should be President.
John Kerry or Dubya?
If you ignore me I will eat more of you sheep! -The Wolf.
But if I shoot you won't that just make the other wolves mad?
Oklahoma City was a Muslim based terror attack. Eventually, it will be proven.
