I hate to sound callous, but maybe we need a global war. Particularly one in which we wipe out a very large number of people. Don't get me wrong, I would like to find a way to make sure that not a single innocent person dies. But "civilian" and "innocent" are not synonymous. Those who support my enemy are also my enemy, and I want them GONE.

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."

Dog - the pro-Saddam and anti-American supporters have just proven what they stand for. They are beneath contempt.

Nope. Just not a very big fan of lazy, ghetto language.

This slang has been in use since 1986! Even high school teachers use it now. Doubt it came from the ghetto as most of them don't know the word disrespect. It probably came from college students. Anyway you had better get used to this word because they will be dropping it off the slang list soon. If a slang word is not offensive and in use long enough it becomes part of the language.

You know, if I was a hard-working British citizen, I would be wondering how these people can afford the time to show up for these protests. Then, I would wonder who is footing the bill. Then, I would probably be mightily PO'd, due to finding out this is another example of someone living on the dole.

dissed

Please use English

Dissed is English. It may be slang, but it's still English. Actually I prefer to call it American English.

Christiane "Two Bags" Amanpour says "tens of thousands." Fox news reports about 30,000. MSNBC says Michael Jackson may turn himself in soon (but their scroll says "100,000 expected").

This is such BS. There was gonna be a million people. They were gonna run Bush out of the country. The truth is they're all a bunch of mice.

And this is YOUR AMERICA. The placation of idiots and communist sympathisers has reduced the quality of liberty that our fathers so willingly shed their blood to defend for OUR sakes. How that a nation that once stood firmly united against tyranny has openly embraced it's usual forms. How many more American fathers must sit back while their children are indoctrinated at the hands of the socialists and secularists. Our once Great REPUBLIC whose FAITH in God brought them to a new land to worship him in peace now find itself in such persecution by the hands of those who we call our own the mere mention of HIS name in public is a crime.

The appeasement of a bully only invites more extortion. Talk is cheap nowadays. History again is on the verge of repeating itself. What more treacheries must you endure from our OWN?

If you cannot see the Civil War that is already upon us then you have not yet suffered adequately to deserve revolution. What more assets of my freedom and that of my children are you poised to broker?

The left plays by the rules of bullies and tyrants and can only loose by standing up to them. How can God Bless America when Satan controls it? I say God Bless those who are willing to pick up the pieces of it when the enemy and their appeaser's are removed.

They are NOT "Protesters".

They are Pro-Terrorists and anti-Americans, just like the Democrats in our Country.

Sounds like you are more upset about what happened to Roy Moore than anything else...

I understand how you feel but I will only say this... If Muslims ever became a majority in this country, I would not want them placing statues with words from whatever book they use and try to impose that standard of behavior...

I believe and I think most in this country do but the most important thing we can do is deal with our own flocks. "As for me and my house...."
