He has not done jack against Iran and Syria, two nations that harbor terrorists.

He has given cash grant freebie tax dolalrs to Iran--TWICE!--since 911 following earthquakes.

He is standing by watchng as Iran develops nukes.

He is standing by watching as Iran is building the IDEs that are killing our troops in Iraq.

He continues to give money to the Palestinians, another group that harbors terrorists.

He continues to give food to N. Korea.

You know all this. Why would you ask such a stupid question knowing full well Bush has not done jack about many nations that harbor terrorists?

Yep, last week Hunt and Cowens said we could not win. But NOW they come up with a strategy where we can WIN?

They are getting their info from ol buddies who aren't getting recognition, I would guess. Sorry but I'm really getting p.o.'d at Col Hunt these days.

There is a reason they are mid-level and not top-level, I think.

We should be sending cruise missiles and F-15Es into Syria and Iran, NOT sending two more battalions to Iraq to fight the Iraqi Army's fight.

This might just be a predeployment for phase 3, Iran.

In the Los Angeles area that have been servicemen who returned home from Iraq only to be killed from a drive by shooting in their own home town. We have our own home grown terrorists cowards here in the Los Angeles area. I was actually working within Los Angeles when these monsters crawled out of their holes and starting burning the city. Had to call out the marines from camp Pendleton to stop them last time. I laughed hysterically when our new mayor recently assured us that Los Angeles is safe, this was after the home grown Muslim prison gang terrorists were recently caught here. Los Angeles is always just one Rodney King away from a riot. Many people go missing here too.

You can't refute the facts I stated.

You can only act childish and call names--you possess characteristics of a Democrat.

For all you others, see here the acts of one who is a member of FR and supposedly that means conservative and a defender of freedom (and freedom of speech)--and respect of others. I stated some facts that this member could not argue with, so all he did was whip out his flamethrower. This is an example of the type of member that adds nothing of value to our discussion. Name calling as a defense is so childish, so RAT-like.

they pump 2 million bbls of oil per day at $67 each, they can't afford a few hundred Hummers for their security forces?

Apparently not, when there's 2 decades of basic infrastructure to replace, at the same time. While there's a terrorist insurgency going on, at the same time.

the iraqi military forces getting up to speed is the #1 issue - solve that problem, and other things will fall into place.

But you've got to keep the populace fed and occupied in the meanwhile.

When I lived in San Fran. I wanted to visit LA just to see what all the hoopla was about. I thought my friends were going to have me commited. LOL

I just perused the thread from the President's speech today. They were saying that he named several states where terrorist plots have been thwarted. I believe California was one of them.

I am upset I have been away from everything today. It sounds like his speech was one not to be missed.

I would very much like to flame you! You are the one whos got nothing to add to this discussion....what part do you have in this War on Terror? None I bet, but a seat paid for by the blood of patriots like me, in the bleacher section! Ive got no time for simpletons like yourself. Ive got a war to fight and win, and dont have a second more to waist on a....(imagine) like you... In my world you are filth, with lots of gripes about how those who HAVE stepped up to the plate are doing their jobs. I can only imagine how simple things look through your glazed, empty eyes (the eyes with nothing behind them). Like I said. Ive been fighting this war for 18 years and it really pisses me off when half Whit runts like your self start poppin off. We are done here, and I dont give a rats ass about whoever it is you are trying to impress with your allegations of abuse....screw off FN!
