At a certain point you must respect those who have served in the Armed forces.

But when you start blaming Madonna for Islamist maniacs rammimg planes into the World Trade Center...or planning dirty bombs in NYC and Chicago....you have lost your way.

Madonna is not disemboweling American GI's or burning Blackwater volunteers to a crisp.
This war has been on and off since 600 BC before Jesus or mohammad.
America has done more to save lives lives ...invent medications ..then any country ever.... not to mention our economic engine has helped lift the entire world out of misery. From the Declaration of Independence to inventing flight... blue jeans and rock and roll too standing down the commies and the nazis the world owes us a debt of gratitude.We are exceptionally.

WE ARE NOT TO BLAME FOR 9/11!

I agree we are not to blame for 9/11. My blood still boils everytime I think about that day.

I simply pointed out that it is easy to see how socially conservative people (i.e. good old Southern Baptist like me or Mansi the Muslim like he referenced in his interview) find a lot of the filth being spewed out of Hollywood, cable talk shows (why does O'Reilly interview this trash?), and our universally popular music.... offensive.

Think about walking through a mall and seeing a young kid with his pants down around his knees, a smirk on his face, and a ballcap on sideways. I admit being a little dubious about the character of that kid before I even meet him. It's even worse after you hear him slaughter the english language. That kid is the unfortunate cultural image of America to many foreigners.

It's a fair point like it or not. FWIW - I don't think that kid represents the majority of America but if all I saw and heard was propaganda from my preacher, slanted news about America, and all I actually saw of America was bootleg DVD's and CD's at the flea market I might think this country was a messed up place.

To defeat your enemy you must first understand them. I won't try to understand the Islamofascist but I can at least sympathize with a Saudi father whose kid wants to listen to Eminem.

P.S. - I have a good buddy with Blackwater as well. That's good money if you don't get killed.
