Is 9/11 an Issue?

President Bush talks about his record, and Democrats demand that he shut up.

September 11, 2001, marked the worst foreign attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor--the bloodiest ever on the American mainland. It's certainly been the defining event of George W. Bush's Presidency. But according to Democrats and their media echo chamber, it now shouldn't be a campaign issue.

One does not have to be a blood relative to be an heir in this case. His father became a billionaire courtesy the house of saud...king saud once paid 6 mos of the empires' take to his father. That is just one instance over time which lead to Osamas' father's wealth courtesy the house of saud.

He's an heir alright. The house of saud passes to the father and the father passes to his son Osama. Or did Osama get rich digging ditches for the house of saud?

Your post regarding Haiti on a 911 thread either represents your inability to focus on the subject at hand due to a severe case of ADD, or you're just a shuck and jiver here to disrupt and distract.

You should look in the mirror some time. Haven't you heard?
Osama got rich doing the laundry for the house of saud.

Is English not your mother tongue?

You're misusing the word "heir" and have the slightest idea what you're talking about. Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeesh!

Your inability to grasp what my post represented in relation to the comment I was responding to, highlights your reading comprehension deficiency.

Also, the notion that you decide what comments are germane to what subject, and your self-appointed role as some sort of thread cohesiveness co-ordinator/hall monitor, may have a lot more to do with a Napoleonic complex, than with anything I've posted.

The dims and liberals haven't sobered up. They want to go back to 'the good ole days'. That is why their slogan is ABB.

By the way, the first post regarding Haiti on a 9/11 thread was here, which you ignored while trying to take me to task for bringing up Haiti.

You're the absolute picture of hypocrisy.

See Joe!

I knew that if we talked long enough, I'd bring you around to my way of thinking.

There's no need to use the US military to control the Haitian illegal immigrants trying to reach the US, that's the Coast Guard's job.

Likewise, we don't need the US military trying to control the Mexicans at the SW border, that's what the Border Patrol is for!

Glad we finally settled that argument!

You think?

Oh, it's the *Federal* government's border patrol that's in charge of controlling our borders and protecting our sovereignty? Another profound statement from louie louie.

So why is it that the SAME *Federal* government drops everything they are doing to run off to some medieval, backasswards place like Haiti with arms, military troops, ships, supplies, etc, yet the SAME *Federal* government winks and nods at the epic lawlessness flooding across our very **own** borders?

Lets see, any thinking person would say, "Hmmm, why are they so concerned about places in Outer Mongolia when literally millions are defecating on our laws, and our sovereignty, creating nationwide chaos, fraud, choking off our hospitals, social services, taking jobs, filling our jails, murdering our police officers, bringing in drugs by the tonnage, yet the feds haul ass to Haiti when those pathetic morons are having a problem"?

Real conservatives see the obvious and speak out, while you and your leftist konservative (R) clique do everything possible to distract and throw up smoke and dust to minimize this epic attack on our borders, and our sovereignty.

The weak diversion doesn't work anymore louie. But I do get a kick when your team runs down memory lane a hundred or so years, ranting about ridicules, irrelevant things like the Irish.

Do you not think the average Joe after reading these written words can't form their own honest opinion in the face of all this BS? It's glaring. You were exposed as an open border, illegal alien apologist long ago. It's no secret louie.

Racist?

Why, because I stated it absolutely ridicules and irrelevant to compare 100 year old history with this unprecedented, continued, epic, nationwide attack by *millions* of illegals pouring into our country?

I generally don't call the moderator, but in your case I will, as I tire of your *very* offensive race baiting and vile name calling. This isn't the first time with you.

So this is racist huh?

Lets see, any thinking person would say, "Hmmm, why are they so concerned about places in Outer Mongolia when literally millions are defecating on our laws, and our sovereignty, creating nationwide chaos, fraud, choking off our hospitals, social services, taking jobs, filling our jails, murdering our police officers, bringing in drugs by the tonnage, yet the feds haul ass to Haiti when those pathetic morons are having a problem"?

Maybe I should have just lied and described Haiti as a first class, top shelf, highly educted people that have contributed enormasly to the human race? Not PC enough for you huh? I am a racist for not sugar coating it and lying for you? This is a country that has vodoo for a religion for crying out loud.

Now for this one.

"The weak diversion doesn't work anymore louie. But I do get a kick when your team runs down memory lane a hundred or so years, ranting about ridicules, irrelevant things like the Irish."

Tell me, PRND21, where do you see racism here? If you could be very specific instead of just pasting stuff. Lets hear it, PRND21.

Obviously, what I posted was not racism, otherwise I'd be banned. Your vile offensive post, with the nasty name calling stands as proof that even those in charge can over look things, or even have their own biased agenda.

That's what you said Joey.

The Coast Guard guards the coast, and the Border Patrol guards the border.

Write that down on a piece of paper, and put it in your pocket, that way you can go back to it whenever you need it.

Joey, can you get through a post like a man, and not use third grade schoolboy playground verbiage?

Talking down to your level is so strenuous.

Hey Joe...you're calling the Mods in on yourself?

By the way, I was outed?

I bet that happened that mythological time when I supposedly called you a Nazi.

Of course, you have no proof of that either...

Talking to Joey about this subject is like watching Pavlov's dog spend an afternoon in a telephone call center.
