I love the new word they learned recently - "CHICKENHAWK". Sounds like something you'd hear in a late - night porn shop. I guess it makes as good a pejorative as any, except they seem to apply it to a LOT of active duty military and veterans. And forgive me if I doubt their "concern" for the welfare of "American Boys" in the war. Sounds like self-justifying boilerplate to me.
If I'm not mistaken, it appears that every action taken since September 11th has been against the citizenry and not the terrorists.
I mean, we're being told that the Saudis are friends but Iraq is so much worse? That doesn't make sense, for the vast majority of the terrorists were Saudis.
From the Patriot Act to CFR to "Homeland Security's" vagueness and redefinition to the TIPS program, it appears that everything that has been proposed is against the citizenry. Meanwhile, Bin Laden is a distant memory, and the man that we were going to "HUNT DOWN" is no longer a concern? Actually, Bush signed W199i prior to the September 11 attacks that made it illegal to go after Al Quaida.
It doesn't add up. Granted, I have no problem with America defending itself, and for those who are responsible paying for their crimes. However, there has to be a real connection.
