BTTT!!!
Viva Bush !
Amen! God bless him.
I would be a lot more open for discussion with you if you didn't charactarize what I write as hate. It really is very un-Christian and insulting. As I have posted before, it is impossible for you to know what is in my heart.
I do not hate George Bush. I am critical of him and some of his policies.
I have never seen anyone post here that they hate George Bush. So, for you and many others, to continually post that we hate George Bush for criticizing some of his policies is incredibly cheap and small. It reduces any discussion to the exchanges you and I have had.
You are the one that first claimed that I hate George Bush. Again, I do not. But, don't let that get in the way of your hate.
You once told me that "Hatred will do that to even a good mind." I can see by your constant attacks against me that has proven to be true.
Let me say also, for the most part I have been playing you. When you first accused me of hate we had a little bit of fun posting to each other. But, you couldn't let it go. You had to keep up the attacks and since you made it clear that you despise me for posting facts mixed with opinion, it put me on the defensive. And, I admit, I chose to push your buttons. For that I apologize. But, I will not apologize for my opinions on Bush. If you don't like them try to sway me with a reasoned argument - not name calling and assuming something about me that is not true.
I don't hate you. Not at all. I hate the evil things you have said about a man I know to be honorable, but I don't hate you. I do feel very sorry for you, and others like you who waste your emotional energy attacking him, and those of us who have a deep and fundamental respect for him.
As I said.........it is best if I try as hard as I can to ignore you, because what you say is so offensive to anyone who respects this President and Commander in Chief, that it isn't worth what it does to us to try to defend him from the unfair attacks you level on him.
You don't have to apologize for the vile things you have said.........but you do have to live with what you have done. And if you can do that, so be it. Only you and the Lord know what's going on in your soul, ray. It's not my place to do any more than pray for you and hope that you find peace.
Rationality has been a slim commodity on FR lately....
Now maybe you can see my point. If one were to point out (publicly) such a situation is widespread, one would come under attack for "demoralizing" actions.
What accusations? Be specific.
I do not regret the respect, support and admiration I have for a President who has led us through dark and dangerous times, and who loves this country to the point of putting his life on the line for it.
I will never apologize for being able to admire a man that I don't always agree with because of his character and commitment to doing what is right.
We are at war..........not you against the President and his supporters, but ALL of us against an evil enemy trying to destroy us.
I just happen to believe that we should be working together, and those of you who are tearing us apart are fighting the wrong war. The enemy is NOT President Bush.
Best wishes, ray. I WILL leave you alone now.
I just read a few of your posts. Derision, bitterness, and what I would call a good dose of what looks like plain old hatred just ooze from what you say towards Bush.
And you are calling her irrational?
Time for a cold shower friend............
Now if one said this was the policy of the administration, that would be a whole different kettle of fish.
Some of this probably does go on, but I think it is probably the result of cliques on certain bases.
I remember well those 8 years.
These folks think the Dems will fix the border?
And they say we are irrational.................
.......of him weeping at a service for those lost at the Pentagon on 9/11, you reposted it with a horrible comment that he looked like it 'hurt him to hold the flag.'
Now maybe, in your angry frame of mind you thought that was acceptable, but for any of us who remember 9/11, the loss of life, and the leadership that he showed in the face of great danger, and the great love of country that he displayed, the comment was nothing short of vile.
The fact that you found it acceptable reveals your level of hate. Yes, ray. Hate. And for me, it was the end of any respect I ever had for you.
How in the world does a Pro-Bush article get posted on Free Republic?? Hope you're wearing asbestos underwear.
Pray for W and Our Troops
You made accusations of hate before I responed to that pic. You have made accusations of hate every time you have responded to my posts about Bush's "new America" speech. Where is the hate in that or any other post. Where are the "vile accusations, ray."?
It's far more widespread than one might think. That you don't hear much of it is both a testament to the endurance of these people, as well as a disservice to getting the problem solved.
Another deity heard from? Do you claim to know what is in my heart or is that only for God to know?
"Or maybe with 75 million quasi educated poor immigrants and riots in the streets, at that point we won't have enough time to remember Bush at all. Sorry to point out that the stakes on the immigration issue are show stoppers, but I live in a destination for illegals and we are already being swamped. "
I agree with you in a way.
The 1965 immigration law started the end days of the U.S.
We are in a probably irreversible process of being colonized by the third world, and we will be picked apart like a turkey carcass over the next century, after that, we will be different nation, with little connection to the United States of America.
No more conversation, ray. The facts are there for everyone to see. I don't need to say more, and I choose not to.
