May Ted "Sniffling" Turner drown in his own vomit.He is intitled to his opinion and so am I.I hope it never happens again but if there is another hijacking I hope he and Jane both are on the plane.They deserve it for their ingaratitude to this country and what it made especially him. I remember quit a few years ago when he was on WRET-TV out of Charlotte,NC begging people for money to keep his TV station and this area helped him and through his begging he became rich and now he thinks he is a genius.

Ted Turner, the embodiment of Mark Twain's oft used axiom:

"Better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you may be an idiot than to open it and remove all doubt."

People who kill innocent people without any warning are cowards, no matter how they manage the killing?

Hey, Ted! There's a BIG difference between being BRAVE and being BRAINWASHED! Just like your ex-wife, you are proving yourself to be what you are...arrogant and un-American.

I don't think you or Jane know the meaning of brave. Why not sit with some combat veterans and discuss what the word means. Why not ask those who sacrificed their lives for others during our recent attacks? Why not ask those fighting a terminal illness? No, Ted, the terrorists are not brave. They are moronic and selfish cowards, fueled by a demented sense of importance, who attack from the shadows. They are weak, brainwashed puppets who do the bidding of others and stupidly believe they will be rewarded for their deeds. No, Ted, they are not brave.

If the head of CBS news gave a live radio interview in 1945 and called the Japanese Kamkazi pilots over Okinowa as being brave, he would have been lined up against the wall and shot. Evil, fanatical, nuts, murderous, diabolical, deranged, inhuman, would be words of choice.

The 911 SOB's killed civilians in a slaughter of biblical proportion. To murder civilians is never brave and it is evil to even emply it. Brave is a word reserved for honorable actions or risking one's life, liberty, or fortune for the sake of others or for a selfless act to aid a noble cause. It does not take bravery to blow yourself up in a Jerusalem pizza parlor murdering children. It takes fanatical hate. It does not take bravery to gas millions of people in concentration camps and call it the final solution, it takes fanatical nazi hatred. The islamic nations are breeding millions of aranazi's just like Hilter did to raise and teach hatred of Jews and Americans. Israel and America are scapegoats and Ted Turner is a mouthpiece for the devil.

Make no mistake, the 911 hijackers were militant inhuman islamic robots raised and trained to hate. The word used is terrorist, but somehow even that word doesn't describe correctly the true evil and hatred of these devils that renounced humanity and chose death and destruction of even their very souls.

"Considering that Caesar was a life long dictator & oversaw the crumbling of the Roman empire, you could more accurately make a comparison b/w Ted & Caesar

What are you talking about?! Julius Caesar, born in 100 BC, was one of the greatest and most well-rounded individuals who ever lived. He was a master general, writer, orator, politician, administrator, and exploror whose actions enabled Europe west of Italy to, for the first time, begin to play an important role in history. While in 49, after the civil war, he assumed the title of "Dictator", an officially sanctioned position of the Roman Republic, he was assassinated in 44 thanks to his truly undictatorial nature which provided forgiveness to his defeated enemies, who did not share such restraint.

Thanks for refreshing our memory. You'd think Turner would have learned a lesson from Bill Maher. You'd think!

From the other thread...

Liberals/libberatarians are anti-virtue(psychopaths)...

virtue is a total impossiblity---a lapse/slip of their nature-- religion--ideology(disease)!

Look at janet boubonic/botulism plague reno666(satan)...nothing but a dirty needle---preused by a junkie with aids(politcal cor-erection)!

Do murderers--criminals--terrorists--mediacrats have "courage"---mantras and agendas only---no free thinking or the ability to live--speak outside of the rat pack mentality?

... Realatarians up!

CNN spinners have issued a statement that says Teddy bin-Turner's remarks have been taken "out of context".
Out of context???
In just WHAT context could these statements possibly be uttered and NOT be thoroughly un-American? (As well as grossly ignorant?)

Ol' Ted Turban could scream "I hate America and everyone in it and everything about it!" at the top of his lungs on Larry King Jive and his news-muppets would be on hand at the top of that very hour to say his remarks were "taken out of context."
