"The only way Iraq will get "back on its feet" is if we find them either a dicatory, or a shiite theocracy. They will never "get back on their feet" as a democracy, because they were were a democracy in the first place."
Tell me...what ME internet cafe are you sitting at writing this tripe?
Hey, did you have a nice Thanksgiving? We did.
I remember when you were over there from being on CU - I thanked you for your service then and again now. You lived it - you sir are no armchair soldier!
I REALLY appreciate your being here, tx. These are the most ignorant people I have seen in my nearly six years on FR.
I can't believe what I'm reading. It's pure MSM FILTH!
Thank you ma'am. It's an honor to be able to do so.
I can, my nephew is over there - I know from him those guys want to finish the job.
The tripe here makes me sick...
Who do you think he got the 'neocon' insult from........Paul Begala? James Carville?? Howard Dean???
Maybe we should start a list of the trolls on this site so we can update it when required.
I do, because Muslims are not capable of democracy. This is the basic neocon premise that must be rejected. Iraqis are not Europeans after WWII. The only thing they can accomplish is tinpot dictators and theocracies.
The entire country isn't a "military threat"
So lets pick the regions that are, and turn them to rubble. But you won't even grant that granularity. Heck, you won't even let us turn mosques and "hospitals" (read: insurgent bases) to rubble from the air.
War isn't pretty...it's not something that can...if done effectively...be wrapped up in a bow in 100 hours or conducted from effictively from the safety of the wild blue yonder. It's a down on the ground...dirty...bloody and yes deadly business. If you don't have the stones to do something like that yourself...fine...I have no problem with that...but by God you need to get the hell out of the way of those of us that DO pack the proper equipment to go ahead with what needs to be done and not leave until it's finished.
You aren't following your own logic. War isn't pretty - so lets use the biggest non-nuclear weapons we've got to kill the enemy. But you want to wage war by the Marquis of Queensbury boxing rules.
Not a bad idea, but they're pretty obvious when they spout leftist propaganda like they have on this thread.
I could not believe what I was reading and checked some of the sign up dates. Unbelievable.
The dates - that's what has stunned me the most...
He's THERE, you idiot!!
Do you realize how stupid you look??
txradioguy is risking his life to keep you safe and free, and you're insulting him openly and saying unbelieveably ridiculous things about him??
C'mon! NO one is this braindead!
>> Don't worry, as soon as the terrorists murder another 4,000 civilians in NYC, most of us will be on the same page again.
I think those we're referring to will find a way to suggest America deserved such an attack. I believe we're fools if we await the next wave of unity.
I am not a cultural relativist. I agree with Lord Acton - liberty has not existed long outside of Christianity. Until Muslims reject their wicked ways, they will not develop and ordered and free society. It is that simple. Read your Bible sometime. The prophets made similar points to the Israelites many, many times.
I did not deny the power of God to change hearts. I do deny the power of our military to change hearts. If you read your European history you will know that armies never changed hearts. Clovis, Charles Martel, Charlamagne and others all failed. But humble people without weapons who have given their lives to God can change hearts.
The Clinton's have been waging an Internet war against conservatives for a very long time.
I have NO doubt that some of these '98 ers who pop up only to bash and belittle are part of her campaign.
Some of these guys are leftists. The others are miserable, nasty isolationists whose only conservativism is self-centered. They aren't principled. They're one step away from being anarchists, IMO.......and they're mean.
