To the editor:
One would think that the president of the United States holds the most stressful job ever. Isn't it wonderful that our pompous president is in such excellent condition healthwise? And why not? His eligible daughters aren't in Iraq protecting our country like so many others, more than 1,800 who have given their lives for a war that he started.
With a smirk on his face, he says, "We will stay the course." Who is "we?" Not him or his family. Heck no. He's on a month's vacation. If he's so gung-ho about this war, show us some guts and send your kids to the front lines. This war is not being won; the insurgents just keep on coming. And terrorism has gotten much worse since he began this senseless war.
Then, too, he has no worry about health insurance. Boy, is he covered, not like the millions who have none. And what about the poor, the homeless and those who barely eke out a living? It's not his problem. Why worry? Go on vacation. Imagine a month's vacation. No wonder he's in such good condition. And while he's gone, who's minding the store? The other pompous snake?
I would think that if Dubya likes Texas so much, he should stay there and let one who has the total concern of our nation and its people take his place. In history, I believe this president will be judged the worst ever.
LOL you need to up the pucker factor
Good one! :-)
"sets herself on fire, then I'll respond."
You respond if you want to. I'll get the marshmallows.
Where'd you get that kewl M107?
LOL
OK, troll. I doubt that you bother to stick around and reply to anybody or even read, but I'll dispute the "points" raised by this semi-literate letter-writer.
Isn't it wonderful that our pompous president is in such excellent condition healthwise?
Actually there isn't a point here, but the writer has already established by his name-calling that he is not likely to engage in any meaningful discussion of issues.
His eligible daughters aren't in Iraq protecting our country like so many others, more than 1,800 who have given their lives for a war that he started.
His daughters have nothing to do with the issues at hand. The military is an all volunteer force which people like this author completely disdain. Of course, he will pretend to respect them with comments about how many have "given their lives" when it suits his purpose to criticize the president, but this author has absolutely no respect for our soldiers.
With a smirk on his face, he says, "We will stay the course." Who is "we?" Not him or his family.
Liberals love to claim W says this or that with a smirk on his face. It isn't really a point to discuss, but rather a mean-spirited lie on their part. As to the second part of the statement, "WE" are the United States of America. And even though some of our citizens are panty-wastes that would be a better fit in France, we as a nation will stay the course and will not allow terrorists or their sympathizers on the left to deter us from defeating our enemies.
He's on a month's vacation.
Just like every president before him takes a month's vacation in August when the congress ends its session. Again, the author isn't really making much of a point, but to his undeveloped mind it must sound like it is a really devastating blow to ridicule the president for the vacation.
If he's so gung-ho about this war, show us some guts and send your kids to the front lines.
Gung-ho has nothing to do with it. His daughters have not chosen to join the military and he shouldn't pressure them to do so.
This war is not being won; the insurgents just keep on coming. And terrorism has gotten much worse since he began this senseless war.
Here the idiot finally tries to actually raise a point, but the point is demonstrably false. The war IS being won. Yes terrorists continue to come into Iraq from Syria, Saudi Arabia, and other hell-holes to try to destroy the freedom being born there. But they are still losing and we are still winning.
Then, too, he has no worry about health insurance. Boy, is he covered, not like the millions who have none.
Is this a point? It is not relevant to what he was discussing.
And what about the poor, the homeless and those who barely eke out a living? It's not his problem. Why worry? Go on vacation. Imagine a month's vacation. No wonder he's in such good condition. And while he's gone, who's minding the store? The other pompous snake?
Not much of a point here either. Just more incoherent rambling and name-calling.
I would think that if Dubya likes Texas so much, he should stay there and let one who has the total concern of our nation and its people take his place. In history, I believe this president will be judged the worst ever.
I guess we'll see about that. After his term is over, he will probably come back to Texas -- it is his home after all. Given the challenges W has faced and the bold policies he has implemented, I doubt the writer's assessment will be shared by many people other than the extreme fringe loony left that actually think Jimmy Carter was a good enough president to rank somewhere in the top 40.
So, there you go troll. I've disputed every "point" the author tried to make. Happy?
You actually think the President isn't working? He doesn't need to be in a certain place, he is still the President and is doing his job.
Oh, and it IS liberal wacko garbage you are spewing.
Part of this reasoning suggests that someone can not support a war effort unless they personally enlist in the service, or have loved ones in the service.
That's just not true. Someone doesn't have to be a fireman to support the fire department, nor a police officer to support the police in their town. A person need not have a family member in either career field to support the need for either, their mandate, etc.
And they don't need to be one to enjoy the benefits of them being there.
The Party of No speaks out.
Dude, you should have sent me your address. I would have gladly sent you whatever money you required to initiate the move.
Now, the biggest problem WE have is how to keep you there!
"In history, I believe this president will be judged the worst ever."
No that's Jimmuh "ol craka peanut" Carters dealio...
Dos Vdyana Troll Boy! We love the DUmmies...without them, there would be no ZOTS!!!!
You can't possibly be serious. You actually do think this drivel is worth responding to??????
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You want a smirk? THIS is a smirk! --
The Presidents daughters are adults.
We have an all-volunteer force.
He can't "send" his daughters to the military, any more than he could prevent them from enlisting if they chose to.
But you knew that.
New-bie ZOT-O-RAMA!
Dork breath. Get a life and a clue, and as such, here's a ZOT for you!
Pleeeeeze don't give these guys any ideas. You know where Clinton used to vacation. It sure wasn't Arkansas.
The looney libs just can't get over the fact that there is no draft.
We are now reduced to the fact that people are eligible but they don't serve.
argh
Then why do you care? Stay on your own side of the border and keep your nose out of our business.
