There is no front line in the non-linear fight in which we are engaged [in Iraq]. For example, an IED does not discrimate between genders or locations.
very nice piece....
after being reminded about the repeated rape of our female prisioners, I think we let the guys at Abu Grab walk
Just what is a republican and why is anyone who isn't a born again Christian not
acceptable as a citizen.
I assume that 90% of blacks should go, all Moslems, Jews, Catholics, atheists, Hispanics and on and on are undesirable
I am a republican and voted that way. I served my country in war as long as capable and firmly believe that the country is made up of wonderful caring intelligent people who deserve the right to believe what they want, how they want, and vote the same way.
Of course I have the right to try sway them my way.
More than this, however, there is something sacred and unique about a woman's ability to give birth, to nurse, to be the epicentre of life. This is not an opinion but a bright, shining reality. One that, if we are honest, only an enemy of women would reject.
Apparently the Palestinians don't regard their womens deaths to be any more significant than males, in view of the increase of utilization of female homicide bombers. I wonder if Pali women think of them as enemies.
My thoughts exactly. Chivalry is alive and well. There's a reason men feel protective of women and its a reflection of human nature. No matter how hard the feminazis try to change it, it always reasserts itself. We don't want women dying where they shouldn't. The President is simply restating common sense in this area. And let's make sure women are never placed in a situation in wartime where men have to defend them at the expense of the mission.
Mornin'. Thanks for the post.
How would he drawl 'eh?' eh?
For me the test is what they do - not what they profess.
A certain former President had this really big Bible he'd carry to church...
Flt 93...
"You try finding a black church that isn't overwhelmingly Democrat."
I attend a Southern Baptist church that is ninety-nine percent white and overwhelmingly Republican but we have a few black members who are welcomed and seem to feel comfortable with us. Why do you have to find a black church?

Sounds Like one Canadian that gets it. There may be hope for Canada after all.
The Muslim fanatics terrorist we are battling now are highly religious and spend a whole lot more time expressing their devotion then we do.It's true that some of the most evil people on the planet today are deeply religious Islamofacists. And it's true that given the chance, they would love to break all records set by the mass-murderers of the 20th century.
But so far, all the records --- all the extremely high body-counts --- are held by atheists/socialists.
Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Hitler (National Socialism).
I'm not saying that the Islamofacists won't some day break those mass-murder records... but as it stands today, those records are all held by atheists.

Sad, but true, imho.
Very good. Thanks for sharing this with us, Clive.
Rest assured that Bush is no Clinton. This president really is a man of faith.
"Flt 93..."
Imagine if there were only women and children on that flight. I think the result would have been the same... You?
