Sure, there's a difference. An islamofacisist wants to kill you. A moderate muslim just wants to see you dead.




I agree.


Religion of peace my a$$.

I think many successes have been swept under the rug and to be honest, I would bet this remains the case in the foreseeable future.

The MSM just cannot bring themselves to give W or the country as a whole props even when props are due. It doesn't fit into their scheme of total and nonstop negativity.

W made a good speech today and soundbites are there to promote.I suppose we will see what the media chooses to do with them. I for one would like to see a few high profile actions take place. Not unlike the operations that have been launched in the last couple weeks in Iraq.

If people like Ann Coulter get their way, maybe the Republicans will just impeach him.




If people like Ann Coulter had their way (and mine) Bush would have been a conservative. Turns out "comassionate conservative" means moderate to liberal.

Oh. So the fences and the border patrol are a myth?




No, when you have between 11 and 20 million illegals in this country, the current measures are not a myth, they are a profane JOKE!

My attitude towards others is formed by how they treat me. Take a look at the posts made to me and then ask yourself how you would react to the posts made to me had they been made to you. I would offer to you that you might just respond in a similar manner. I did nothing that was not done to me my friend. However I do not see you saying the very things to those that posted to me about how they posted to me as you say to me.

When I am posted to with respect I offer it in return. When I am posting to an unknown I offer respectful posts. When i am posted to with distain I return it.
Can you honestly say I am wrong to return what is sent my way without saying anything to those that sent it to begin with?

As for brand spanking new, to this forum I am when it comes to posting. But it isn't like this is the first forum I have posted in.

The thread shows what it shows. Funny how part of it became about me being a troll, an idiot, haughty, abrasive etc, etc ,etc when it started out as a thread about W's speech.
Maybe I am not the troll here eh?

Bush should have been making speeches on the WOT and pointing out progress etc etc in Iraq on a REGULAR basis

He doesn't LEAD enough

The radical right and fringers want to banish all Islam. As one group. This empowers those who wish, like the ACLU and Newdow), to see Christianity banished.




Last I checked, no one was cutting off heads in the name of Jesus Christ.

(The president is speaking so powerfully and positively about Muslims because you get more with honey than with vinegar. Consider. If you were a young person of Muslim faith and could go either way - would you be attracted to the jihadists or this president? A lot would depend on that answer, but basically good people will be attracted to the powerful message of freedom).

People are saying this should have been broadcast in prime time. Well, it's prime time in the middle east..... :o)

Very big news.

It was a great speech! President Bush also reminded the anti-american, communist Liberals that we will stay the course.

I do not expect everyone to agree on everything, but Harriet Miers deal just seems blown up, because many wanted a FIGHT! I think she will be good, but I do trust in President Bush's judgement, I think he knows more than I do about her.

You would be soo much happier over at DU where they'll love your every word against the President.

On the contrary. I'm no DUer by any means. I am a loyal and very conservative Republican and I, like many others in that group, are extremely upset and are questioning the judgment of George W. Bush. This is not a conspiracy. It was my immediate reaction to the Bush's nomination of Harriet Meirs.

But it is interesting to see what they are saying over at DU. They are as mystified as we are concerning Bush's huge mistake. Many are crediting Reid with pulling over a major coup.

Here is a link to one of the DU Forum Threads that address the issue. It is worth reading this one and the others.

I have an abrasive manner as well. And boy does it show up in the written word! It has caused me plenty of grief with several posters.

People who know me personally understand my sarcasm because they can see facial expression and they have knowledge of how I truly live my life. In here, I sometimes forget the /s tag..or I pop off because of Emotion. Unfortunately, it's hard to take back once one has misspoken.

The way I talk..would you believe I voted for Bush? That I respect Bush? Nope. Not always. So..Lets give a break here OK?

Please explain how I am a troll.



I may have missed it but did you somehow disagree with or critisize in some way their God...er, President?

You need to know the eleventh commandment, "George W. Bush can do no wrong"
